Carabao Energy Drink



Ethnicity: Thai

Ingredients:
Water, sucrose, citric acid, taurine, artificial flavors, caffeine, inositol, sodium benzoate, nicotinamide, dexpanthanol, vitamin B6, FD&C Yellow No. 5, ethyl maltol, FD&C red No. 40, vitamin B12.

Appearance:
Let's let this picture of the liquid speak for itself:



The can has three skulls on it, which is kind of alarming considering the warnings on the side regarding pregnant or nursing women or those with heart conditions.

Taste:
Bad, but not particularly strong. There's a distinct flavor of apple juice, sweet tarts and cough syrup.

Manufacturing Process:
We don't want to know.

Final Thoughts:

Sawyer: "It's easy to forget how much carbonation can mask a terrible flavoring job. Then you drink Carabao and wish you were never born."

Jordan: "If you drink it fast without tasting it, the experience isn't that unpleasant."

Colin: "The can looks nice."
