I love them.

But I am careful with how much I drink them.

I get almost addicted to them, so it's best I stay away ... But I do love the corner shop brand - the ones with the silver bottle, and the cans are like silver and yellow?

I do. It tends to be more the cheap corner shop/Tesco-brand stuff than Red Bull per se, though.

Wasn't there a thread about this really recently?

Anyway I shall repeat what I said there - Irn Bru Energy (which is fairly new) is amazing and I like Rockstar. Monster gives me heart palpitations - bit weird since it can't be the caffeine content as there's no more in that than other brands, so not sure what's in there having that effect. I also like Gfuel blue ice .

These are the high caffeine ones. They don't actually taste much like Irn Bru but IMO they are amazing ... mmmm.

The full sugar one is AMBROSIA however I find it causes a bit of a sugar spike and thus energy crash after a couple of hours. The sugar free one is actually very, very similar to the full sugar one in this case so would personally go for that .
