    RedBull is European/Austrian and the (more) original thing anyway

    And if you’re fed up with energy drinks, Austrian innovation still got you covered ;⁠-⁠)

    This is an energy sniff - and I’d actually love to see people going round taking sniffs/lines, just because it would disturb the picture of what is regarded normal ;⁠-⁠)

    Still, use with caution, as obviously your nasal mucuos stuff won’t be happy about it after some time.
    But it works quite well and I can work around my upset stomach - but as said, not a thing for every day

      Fantastic, I’ve been trying to replace my coke habit. Just need to smuggle this into the US.

        Without joking, I can actually see this helping to get away from coke, as you still have the ritual and some effect - although minor in comparison of course

        And sorry, obviously didn’t get your joke yesterday
        Was still focused on the 2 answers related to red bull and thinking in actual drink associations o⁠:⁠-⁠)

            You can read more about the contents on the linked homepage, but it’s pretty much just caffeine and some other stuff, that should help (and they funnily enough claim everything from natural sources)

            In my youth we just snorted caffeine pills, which work well enough

            Cocaine isn’t really good for long term concentration.
            Amphetamines would be better for that.

            But… Let’s stay on topic o⁠:⁠-⁠)

      Those taste like metal and are trying to buy Austrian and German football, though.

      I usually just go with the sugar free local store brand, which is MUCH cheaper, tastes better, has just as much caffeine, taurine etc, and is produced in a country with better regulations (Denmark).

        It’s always just overpriced sugar water with caffeine and some stuff like taurin, vit b and so on

        It’s never really good for one anyway, but yeah, drink whatever tastes ok for you and works good enough

        I’ve gone though some store brands, but I’m always coming back to the classic RedBull.
        Monster never really was my taste - but because of that, I also didn’t try that much different ones.

        At the moment, I’m more happy with an occasional energy sniff and just a coke or water

          I tend to go with the sugar free version unless I’m looking for a boost while burning 1000+ calories on my exercise bike, but yeah, you’re otherwise right heh
