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 ROCKSTAR PUNCHED TROPICAL MANGO

When opened, a fresh and vibrant aroma of mangosteen and lychee spreads out. It is a very refined fragrance, but when poured into a glass, the color is extremely vivid, almost as if a large amount of strong coloring had been used, which is surprising. Let's give it a try.

When I take a sip, the floral aroma dissipates, and a refreshing blend of tropical fruits—passion fruit, mango, papaya, orange, pineapple, and peach—spreads across the palate.

The aroma alone has a stronger impression of floral and refined tropical mangosteen rather than a general tropical fruit. The harmony between this vibrant aroma and the sweet-tart tropical fruit flavor creates a complex taste, almost as if all the fruits of Southeast Asia were blended together.

The ROCKSTAR PUNCHED series is characterized by candy-like flavors with no fruit juice and plenty of sugar, so this release does not have an excessive fruity taste either. However, by intentionally highlighting the elegant mangosteen aroma instead of a simple tropical fruit scent, the tropical fruit mix flavor reaches a higher level, which sets it apart from other sugar-free tropical flavors.

The background combines tropical fruit-inspired orange and yellow with green elements reminiscent of palm trees and tropical rainforest. Since 2024, the flavor name has been placed on the front of the can in Canada.

The refined and unique aroma, along with the never-boring tropical fruit flavor, is the main appeal, yet the design does not fully express it, which feels like a missed opportunity.

The Rockstar series uses a common design across all series, simply changing the color for each flavor.

Since this flavor is particularly excellent, I felt it would have been even better if the can design had depicted the world of the flavor itself.
