Red Bull Cola

– January 3, 2009Posted in: Reviews, Soda

Welcome back, trusty reader! We've updated the site's look, and we have a lot more ideas we're working on at the moment! Let us know what you think!

Red Bull Cola Red Bull already dominates the energy drink market, which apparently isn’t enough for them, as earlier this year they broke into the soft drink market with Red Bull: Simply Cola. Red Bull’s website labels their newest drink as Strong (Strong like bull!) & Natural. They’re right in labeling it as so. Not only does Simply Cola deliver a powerful boost of energy and flavor, but also it’s like totally natural man (that last part should be read with such a dialect that it sounds like a hippy.)

Red Bull Cola is a nice flashback to the original Coca-Cola. Why you ask? Because of this cola’s ingredients. Water, Sugar, Carbon Dioxide, Natural Flavor, Natural Flavors from Plant Extracts (Galangal, Vanilla, Mustard Seed, Lime, Kola Nut, Cacao, Licorice, Cinnamon, Lemon, Ginger, Coca Leaf, Orange, Corn Mint, Pine, Cardamom, Mace, Clove), Lemon Juice Concentrate, Caffeine from Coffee Beans. Whew, what a mouthful! As you may have noticed, Red Bull takes pride in their new soda, and unlike other companies, chooses not to keep the ingredients a secret. Red Bull Cola comes in a blue, silver and red can and boasts that the Cola within is all-natural, as there is no HFCS, phosphoric acid, or preservatives. It is simply cola.

Red Bull Cola has a unique aroma to it. It smells a lot like Coca-Cola, but smells less sugary and more natural. Red Bull has a smooth and refreshing taste, and tastes a lot like Coca-Cola, but a lot better! (For any Pepsi people out there, I still suggest you try this drink, even if you don’t like Coke.) Red Bull Cola really stands out due to its colorful assortment of flavors and such as the Coca and Kola Nut that Coca-Cola (the name’s derived from two ingredients) contains. Red Bull Cola is a great refreshment any time of the day and delivers a kick of 45mg of caffeine per 12 oz can, and 32mg in the 8.4oz can (according to the folks at Red Bull).
