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 7,000 varieties of energy drinks from various countries. I am also active as a critic and expert, receiving media interviews.

Flavor of rip it F BOMB

The moment you open the can, the fruity scent of pineapple, mango, and passion fruit bursts out, confirming the deliciousness before you even taste it. It's already delicious before taking a sip (๑´ڡ`๑).

When you take a sip, the gentle sweetness of pineapple combines with the complex flavors and aromas of mango, passion fruit, orange, and guava. As you finish, there's a punchy aftertaste that adds a nice kick. This is so delicious!

There isn't a thick juice-like flavor, but that's what makes it refreshing and easy to drink, with a smooth and light texture. The tropical fruit mix scent is well done, leaving no sense of being lacking.

The flavor changes, starting with the tropical fruit flavor and ending with a punchy aftertaste, creating an exquisite taste experience. It's rare to find a tropical punch this good without fruit juice. And for just $1, it’s incredibly impressive.

Design of rip it F BOMB

From the orange and blue can colors, it's hard to imagine what flavor this could be.

At the bottom of the can, small fruits are displayed. It’s only at this point that you realize it’s a tropical fruit flavor.

By the way, I think the "F" in F BOMB refers to both the "F-word" and "fruit," but perhaps due to the negative connotation of the F-word, there was a period when products labeled "F ruit BOMB" were released instead of "F BOMB."

In addition to the regular rip it F BOMB, there is also a mini-sized version with a name change to "G. I. Fruit Fusion" specifically made for U.S. military personnel in the Iraq and Afghanistan combat zones. The reason for the smaller size was to allow it to be consumed quickly. However, it is said that rip it is now rejected by the U.S. military due to its high caffeine content. Apparently, many soldiers in the area consumed 5 to 6 cans in a short period.

The tab is a red tab. Even with a budget brand, rip it nails the small details, which is one of the great aspects of the series.
