Atomic Blast
Review
Since I was back in the USA for a visit, I checked out what energy drinks were filling the Sheetz coolers.
Monster...no, Rockstar...been there, ah Atomic Blast, there's one I haven't heard of. So I grabbed the green apple flavor and decided to give it a try.
I saved my selection until today while I was on a short camping trip. Could it replace my morning coffee and get me going? I was taking a big gamble because a big day of swimming, rope swinging, and cliff jumping was in store.
Taste
Atomic Blast Green Apple comes in a resealable aluminum bottle and when I first screwed the top off, the green apple smell hit my nostrils. The first gulp had a nice green apple flavor at first, but did seem a little watered down at the finish. I think they must have been going for a crisp taste instead of a heavy one.
Ingredients
Atomic Blast doesn't stand out here. Just the usual ingredients and standard amounts. It clocks in at 100mg/16oz on the caffeine front.
Effect
Atomic Blast didn't come on fast, but was more of a steady increase in alertness, awakeness, and energy. I was ready to walk the railroad tracks a mile and a half in order to get to the sweet swimming hole.
Verdict
Atomic Blast is good if you're looking for an energy drink that has a light taste and one that's on the cheap end of the convenience store's range. However, if you're looking for a drink that will give you a kick and a punch, you may want to stick with the trusted.
Caffeine Concentration
Atomic Blast contains 6.25 mgs of caffeine per fluid ounce (21.13mg/100 ml).
