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 Evolve ENERGY SUGAR FREE
Upon opening, a tangy, classic flavor aroma bursts out. Compared to the full-sugar original Evolve, the sweet scent seems somewhat subdued.
When tasted, it has a classic flavor with a refreshing mouthfeel and a restrained sweetness. The aftertaste carries a slight bitterness, which resembles the taste of the original.
The sweetness is more subdued than the original, and the unpleasant artificial sweetener taste overlaps with the bitterness, giving it a stronger chemical flavor impression.
This is suited for those seeking a sugar-free, classic flavor with a chemical taste. Many European sugar-free drinks have this type of flavor, and if you like Red Bull Sugarfree, Evolve ENERGY SUGAR FREE could be a good match for your taste.
Energy Ingredients of Evolve ENERGY SUGAR FREE
It contains 120mg of caffeine and 375mg of arginine. A regular-sized Red Bull contains 80mg of caffeine, so this drink has 1.5 times the amount of caffeine.
Design of Evolve ENERGY SUGAR FREE
The light blue color gives a sugar-free vibe, featuring a spiral DNA-like illustration and a silhouette of an upward arrow representing the tagline “EVOLVE BEYOND LIMITS.” It’s a design typical of a private brand.
Together with the original, it’s easy to mix up with the full-sugar and sugar-free versions. Without Japanese text, it could resemble the energy drinks from European supermarket private labels.
