Jumping out at you like a World’s Gym shirt on steroids comes Super Lion Energy Drink, straight from the manufacturing plants in Singapore, Malaysia, China, Myanmar and Indonesia. This is all under the heads of Super Coffeemix Manufacturing. This drink is one of my first from Malaysia, and if this drink is any sort of standard, I think this one can will be quite enough, thanks.
I was hoping for an awesome mind erasing buzz, the can was strong, covered in lions and even had a whole corner devoted to “NEW SUPER POWER!” Unfortunately, the superpower was all mine in my ability to slug this can down like an energy shooter, and not gag on the cough syrup consistency of this non-carbonated gooey mess.
Taste:2
Non carbonated slightly melted mixed fruit jelly. I can not accurately describe the bad of this drink. and just in case I might have been deceived by some strange confluence of ingredients, The label actually lists “Mixed fruit flavor” as one of their ingredients. Did anyone actually taste this before they put it out to market? Maybe I am missing something with this – like a chaser after it. If it was not so fake and artificial I would recommend it for a flavoring, but I am afraid of this bad taste leeching off the can and infecting whatever it touches with super sticky oversweet medicinal goo.
Packaging:8
This drink comes in an awesome super hard 8.5 oz can, looking like it was right out of the 70s. It is hard coated brass, with super shiny hard to read graphics. The word SUPER is used three times in the description of the drink, not counting the name. The stylized lion is jumping out at you while there is some misspelled Japanese on the can. Who cares about a website with this oil can in your hand. Just don’t try to open and drink it. The mystique is lost once you take a taste of this swill.
Buzz/Nutrition: 6
These are the ingredients as they list them on the can:
Water, Sucrose , Citric Acid, Taurine, 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine, Inositol, Sodium Benzoate, Nicotinamide, Permitted Flavourings and Colourings, Mixed Fruit Flavor.
OK, besides the permitted flavorings and mixed fruit flavor, did you catch that? Where is the caffeine? why did they write 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine instead??? 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine is caffeine but under a different name. As far as my research has seen, this has about 100mg in the can. So basically this is an energy drink. BUT, there are over 200 calories in this tiny can! what did they fill this with, lard?? there is no call for that many calories for a tiny can of basically a sugar sweetened energy drink. And because of that, when the caffeine wears off, the crash is horrendous.
