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.

Premium Fanta Orange Flavor

The artificial orange flavor that came out of this luxurious can is said to be blood orange, which fits the color image perfectly.

Upon tasting, the orange flavor offers a pleasant acidity. There's no fruitiness, and the texture is light, like a sports drink. For a moment, it might feel like a cheap Fanta Orange taste, but the acidity and the slight hint of orange peel add depth, turning it into a more sophisticated Fanta Orange flavor.

+RED RESCUE ELIXIR's Energy Ingredients

+RED RESCUE ELIXIR
Contains 120mg of caffeine, red algae, carnitine, magnesium, and citrulline. Red algae is a reddish seaweed often found in salads. While it's rich in minerals, it's debatable whether it qualifies as an energy ingredient. (^_^;)

+RED RESCUE ELIXIR's Design

A distinctive design with a matte red can and a cap. The logo design that covers the entire can is amazing. There are not many energy drinks with such a design.

The functional sports drink-like logos are aligned vertically. Sports drink marks often end up looking tacky, but +RED's design is elegant and well-executed, never looking cheap.

The back is also beautifully designed, and there's no wasted space anywhere. With its unique cap, it's an artistic and stylish energy drink that stands out globally.

When you remove the cap, it looks like this.

Inside, the can is 355ml in size, and a gray part is attached to the cap. Drinking from the can in this state might be difficult as it may spill. Once opened, the cap won't seal completely, so it's best to drink it right away to avoid leakage after opening.
