I love AriZona Beverage Co and everything they make, and their Rx Energy beverage is no exception. AriZona’s Rx Energy isn’t like other energy drinks though, because the Herbal Tonic doesn’t contain carbonated water (or any carbonation for that matter) or artificial ingredients. This drink is made of: Green Tea, Mango (which gives this drink an amazing flavor), Pear and Lemon Juice, and Honey, so there’s no nasty aftertaste or weird chemical tastes in it like those low end, generic, energy drinks have. After drinking this stuff, I felt the effects of it right away. I became more alert, and was no longer tired. I became disappointed when I ran out of it, because the mango taste is absolutely amazing, and the fact that I cannot drink anymore of this until I go buy more upsets me. What makes this drink so great and interesting is the fact that it contains AriZona’s premium brewed green tea, which is found in their other products, giving Rx Energy a very distinct taste. Rx Energy comes in a 24 oz can, or in a 20 oz glass bottle (picture here) for .99 or 1.99, respectively. Buying the can is a much better deal, but the bottle is great if you are out and need to put it aside for a bit, which I would never do because I can’t not (hooray for double negatives) drink it. Herbal Tonic also contains Caffeine, Panax Ginseng and Siberian Ginseng, and Guarana, giving it the properties of an energy drink, which is why it’s labeled as a Tea and Energy Drink. I don’t know how much caffeine is in this, but I emailed AriZona earlier asking for the answer, so I’ll update this when they reply. A 24oz can of AriZona Rx Energy Herbal Tonic contains 90mg of caffeine (30mg per 8oz), which isn’t as much as some drinks, so it’s perfect for people that can’t handle too much caffeine that still want an energy boost. Arizona Rx Energy Herbal Tonic is absolutely amazing, it’s cheap, great tasting, natural, and delivers a good kick. This drink is something that everyone should try.

Korean Ginseng Drink with Honey
I got this at the same time I got the Chinese RedBull. It’s not caffeinated, but I figured that because Ginseng is supposed to give you energy and because it’s found in so many energy drinks, it deserves a spot on CaffeineGuru. I’m not sure what made me buy this, maybe the curiosity or the ginseng root in the bottle. Either way, this stuff isn’t all that great tasting. It’s watery, with a hint of honey and fairly disgusting. I assume the bitter/disgusting taste is from the root. As for it giving me energy, I didn’t really feel that different after I drank it, although I did feel some regret for drinking the whole thing. I’m also not sure whether this stuff is popular anywhere outside of the U.S or if it’s just some generic company trying to pass this stuff off as consumable. Unless you like gagging after drinking your energy drinks, this product probably isn’t for you.
