Energy drink
Sweet and syrupy, often citrus- or berry-flavored, with a sharp carbonated bite.
Lens analyzedAn energy drink is a caffeinated, usually carbonated beverage built around a heavier caffeine dose than soda, often combined with sugar or sweeteners and extras like taurine or B vitamins. Cans are typically smaller than a standard soda can, sized around the intended dose.
Where it comes from
Modern energy drinks grew out of Japanese and European tonic beverages sold decades earlier, before a canned Austrian import popularized the format worldwide in the late 1980s.
Buying it
Check the caffeine content printed on the can, since it varies widely between brands and can size, more than most people expect.
Storing it
Keep unopened cans in the pantry and chill them before serving.
Keeps about 9 months in the pantry.
