3D ENERGY DRINK CANDY BLAST

Posted on December 18, 2024 | Last updated January 27, 2025

Review of the 3D ENERGY DRINK CANDY BLAST, released in May 2024.

It seems this is the first new flavor in the 3D ENERGY series in two years. During this time, PRIME ENERGY and especially Alani Nu, both released by the same parent company as 3D ENERGY DRINK, have been making significant strides. This made me worry that the 3D ENERGY series might be discontinued, especially since there were still flavors I hadn't tried yet.

However, with the release of this new product, I can breathe a sigh of relief. The 3D ENERGY series has always been a brand that offers high-quality zero-sugar products, so I'm looking forward to reviewing this new release.

In 2001, while living in the United States, I encountered energy drinks through the dance scene and was deeply impressed. After returning to Japan, I found that energy drinks were considered novelty beverages, so I established a comprehensive website in 2013 to share the true appeal of energy drinks. As an energy drink enthusiast, I began drinking them seriously again, collecting over 7,000 varieties of energy drinks from various countries. I am also active as a critic and expert, receiving media interviews.

Flavor of 3D ENERGY DRINK CANDY BLAST

When I opened the can, a refreshing scent reminiscent of white grape and lychee burst out. It has a pleasant fruity aroma, and the taste seemed promising. Let’s give it a try.

As I took a sip, I was surprised by the smooth sweetness and tartness, which blended together with the flavors of white grape and lychee, giving a rich taste. Following this, the refreshing fruity aroma lingered, leaving a satisfying and fresh aftertaste.

The flavor reminded me a bit of Monster Energy Ultra, but without the distinct Ultra taste. It was more straightforward, allowing the fruity flavors like white grape and lychee to shine through. This is a standout feature of the 3D ENERGY DRINK CANDY BLAST.

There’s a slight chemical or artificial aftertaste, especially with the tartness. This might be characteristic of the "CANDY BLAST" flavor rather than a natural fruit taste.

That said, it's too good to just call it "candy." The 3D ENERGY series is a brand that is rarely seen in stores, but it’s an underrated gem offering amazing zero-sugar flavors that truly defy expectations. Every flavor in the series offers a level of satisfaction that redefines what a sugar-free drink can taste like.

The can has a black top with an all-black matte finish, featuring a pop of blue and pink for the design. The overall vibe is lively.

The contrast with the black background is clear, making it stand out on store shelves.

However, I don't come across it much on the West Coast. In most cases, it’s found at supplement shops, but distribution isn’t exactly great. It’s easier to find the 3D ENERGY DRINK series imported to supplement stores in major cities in Australia than to locate it in the U.S.

I found and bought it at a discount store in America.

The general retail price is around $3, but I’m happy to pick it up for $1.25 at discount stores.

It seems that excess stock is flowing into discount stores, so it’s rare to find all the flavors during a single trip to the U.S. However, every time I go, I discover a new flavor I haven’t tried, and I gradually add them to my collection for a fun experience.
