KICKSTART LIMEADE

Flavor of KICKSTART LIMEADE

KICKSTART, a newly released product in Mountain Dew's energy drink line, might seem like a similar product at first, but it's actually very different.

First of all, the color is a subtle lime green that shines. There's no typical deep color associated with energy drinks. The scent is not overpowering, with a refreshing citrus vibe. It’s a bit different from the impression given by the can packaging.

As for the taste, the lime flavor is very mild, with a stronger sweetness. It’s the perfect balance for a limeade. If it were too sour, it would feel more like a lime or sparkling lime, which would be fine too. Since it's called "limeade," the sweetness from sugar is a fitting element.

On the other hand, despite the can’s design, there’s almost no strong or sharp flavor. It’s meant to be like a Mountain Dew with a fruity touch, and I think it’s successfully turned into a proper limeade. The aftertaste, however, leaves a bit of the typical Mountain Dew kick and aroma, providing a satisfying drinking experience.

Energy Ingredients of KICKSTART LIMEADE

KICKSTART, released by PepsiCo, is positioned as a sister energy drink to AMP, and its energy components feel a bit more modest. With only 92mg of caffeine, it might feel slightly lacking for this size. Other than that, there aren’t any notable energy ingredients in it. There’s 5% fruit juice, and it seems like fruit juice is added a bit throughout the series.

While the taste is good, the ingredients fall short of what you’d expect from a typical energy drink.

By the way, the KICKSTART website is pretty cool, so definitely check it out sometime.
