BSC ENERGY ICE BLAST
This is a review of BSC ENERGY ICE BLAST, one of the three flavors in the energy drink series by the Australian supplement manufacturer "Body Science," which was released in October 2023.
Until now, it was sold at high prices in convenience stores and supplement shops, so I had been holding off on purchasing it. However, in 2024, I found it being sold for 3 AUD at a supermarket, and I was able to grab all the flavors at a great price.

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 BSC ENERGY ICE BLAST
Upon opening the can, a citrusy fruit scent mixes with a chemical lime fragrance, creating a "chemical lime" aroma. The liquid itself is colorless and transparent. Let's give it a try.
As I take a sip, it has an intense sweetness, like limeade with a large amount of sugar cubes dissolved in it. There's also a chemical-like aroma added to the taste, creating a confusing mix of flavors.
The sweetness feels like it exceeds the limit that artificial sweeteners can usually provide, resembling a silky sweetness similar to cotton candy. It's not just sugary water, but rather a combination of artificial flavors, evoking the sweet taste of slushies or shaved ice syrup, as suggested by the product name.
A zero-sugar drink this sweet is rare, and with the strong chemical scent, BSC ENERGY ICE BLAST might appeal to those who crave sweetness during a dieting phase.
Energy Ingredients of BSC ENERGY ICE BLAST
It contains 160mg of caffeine, 2000mg of taurine, and 600mg of glucuronolactone.
The fact that the nutritional and energy ingredients are clearly separated and detailed on the back is a great touch. Energy drinks from supplement manufacturers often prioritize the clarity of ingredients, and it's good to see this level of detail.
Design of BSC ENERGY ICE BLAST
The front of the can features the large BSC logo, with an image of a bodybuilder bear representing the flavor. This animal character differs across the BSC ENERGY flavors, and for BSC ENERGY ICE BLAST, it’s a polar bear.
Looking at the front of the can, the "clarity" and the red colors, as well as the font size, create a striking impact when displayed in stores. Even compared to other Australian energy drink brands, this stands out as particularly effective.
The back of the can features the characteristics and effects of BSC ENERGY, with icons providing a visual guide.
The background design is lively and exudes the typical energy drink vibe. It’s a bit busy, but the consistent color scheme throughout both sides of the can creates a cohesive look.
Here are all three flavors of the BSC ENERGY series.
The colorful and flashy design fits well with the fitness supplement origin of the brand, and I personally like it.
In 2024, I found it at an unbeatable price of 3 AUD at the supermarket and immediately bought it! I had seen it in supplement shops and convenience stores before, but the high price and uncertainty about the taste made me pass on it.
The appearance is quite impactful. Many energy drinks from fitness supplement manufacturers have a unique flashy quality that makes them more fun to look at compared to traditional energy drink brands.
