We get it. You’re exhausted. Keep awake and coherent with the Record’s guide to energy drinks.
Best tasting:
Red Bull is one of the most effective, and offers multiple flavors. It only has 80 mg of caffeine, but it works well. Downside: it’s the most expensive at $2.19 for one can.
Cheapest:
5-Hour Energy – $1 for a small bottle that will keep you energized for, you guessed it, 5 hours! It also has vitamins in it, and is one of the highest concentrations of caffeine at 200 mg. Downside: It tastes like liquid tums.
If you want to be warm:
Coffee. It’s cheap (around $2.00 a cup) , has antioxidants, and is one of the most effective, with 95 mg of caffeine in an 8 oz. cup. Downside: Terrible coffee breath.
Coolest color:
Mountain Dew, but it doesn’t really give you energy, just a sugar high, since it has only 54 mg of caffeine in a can.- $1.30 for a 16 oz. bottle.
To look tough:
Monster. The can is hard-core, and there are a lot of flavors. Downside: The taste leaves something to be desired. $4 for two 16 oz. cans with 160mg of caffeine per can.
