While it might not be a good thing, I\u2019ve been an avid caffeine consumer from a very young age. I enjoy everything from tea to coffee but nothing hits the same way an energy drink does. Here is my ranked energy drink list.<\/span><\/p>\n Coming in first place is Red Bull. Now if you would\u2019ve asked me years ago, then my answer would have been Monster. More recently I can say that Red Bull has won me over with the variety of flavors and special edition releases. I\u2019m always itching to try whatever the newest flavor is.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Second place goes to Monster. This wasn\u2019t the first energy drink that I ever tried but it\u2019s the one I\u2019ve drank most consistently throughout my life. At rock concerts and on dreadful high school mornings this brand was my go to. Shoot, I even have a Monster license plate on my car.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In third place is Nos. There\u2019s just something about the bold flavors and punch that I love. Not to mention, it’s slightly cheaper than the others so it\u2019s a little more affordable for college students such as myself.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In fourth place is Mountain Dew Kickstart. To me drinking a Kickstart is like drinking a soda but with a higher amount of caffeine. It\u2019s essentially an energy drink made for the soda drinkers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Last place goes to Rockstar. Over the years this brand has definitely stepped it up with the recovery series, which is perfect for when you need hydration but also a boost. I would consider moving Rockstar up in rank if I could ever find the pina colada flavor again.<\/span><\/p>\n Note: Sorry to the Bang and Celsius lovers out there but I really don\u2019t like them. All the flavors of Celsius I\u2019ve tried taste like medicine, and I can\u2019t get past the weird carbonation in Bang. I want my battery acid Monster, okay?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" by Marisa Seager While it might not be a good thing, I\u2019ve been an avid caffeine consumer from a very young age.
