In 2001, while living in the United States, I encountered energy drinks through the dance scene and was deeply impressed. After returning to Japan, I found that energy drinks were considered novelty beverages, so I established a comprehensive website in 2013 to share the true appeal of energy drinks. As an energy drink enthusiast, I began drinking them seriously again, collecting over 8,000 varieties of energy drinks from various countries. I am also active as a critic and expert, receiving media interviews.

Flavor of C4 ENERGY FROZEN BOMBSICLE

Upon opening, a sweet berry-like scent reminiscent of a common non-fruit juice berry flavor fills the air. It has a blue raspberry vibe, so let's try it out.

When I take a sip, I immediately get a moderately sweet raspberry flavor. The acidity is subtle, just a light accent, and the finish is clean and refreshing, leaving little aftertaste. The mild carbonation adds a nice refreshing touch to the artificial sweetness.

There's no fruitiness from real raspberries; instead, it’s a well-balanced, easy-to-drink blue raspberry flavor designed for pre-workout consumption. The flavor focuses on being pleasant without any artificial chemical aftertaste, which is quite well-executed.

I'm also happy that the taste is enjoyable even without any unpleasant artificial sweeteners, maintaining its deliciousness despite being zero sugar. It's smooth enough to drink comfortably both before and during exercise without any off-putting aftertaste.

Energy Ingredients of C4 ENERGY FROZEN BOMBSICLE

Energy Ingredients of C4 ENERGY FROZEN BOMBSICLE
This drink contains 200mg of caffeine, beta-alanine, and acetyl-l-tyrosine. While the caffeine content is a bit lower than some other energy drinks from supplement manufacturers, considering that we often consume caffeine in our daily lives, 200mg feels like a reasonable amount.

Since C4 ENERGY includes beta-alanine, you might feel a tingling sensation in your face after drinking it. This is a natural reaction called "beta-alanine flush," and there’s no need to worry about it. It’s interesting to see that this product includes typical pre-workout ingredients, a feature typical of supplement manufacturers.

On the back, you can find a highlight of C4 ENERGY’s fitness-oriented ingredients, showcasing the brand's roots as a supplement manufacturer.

Energy drinks from fitness supplement brands, unlike traditional energy drinks, are often created as an extension of their main supplement business. This results in a simple, clear design that effectively communicates the functional aspects of the product, making it very easy to read.

As the brand gains recognition and market share in the energy drink sector, the flavors and series will likely expand, with future releases being noticeably more delicious than their core supplement offerings.
