Relentless ENERGY DRINK LEMON ICE
Relentless Energy Drink's long-selling product, Lemon Ice. This refreshing and sweet lemon-flavored drink has been available since the Coca-Cola era and continues to be sold even under Monster Energy’s ownership.
This time, I’ll be reviewing the 2014 German version of Lemon Ice.

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.
Refreshing and Sweet Lemon Flavor
The brilliance of this champagne-colored glow is simply breathtaking.
As soon as you take a sip, you’ll notice a sweet honey-lemon taste similar to Japanese honey lemon drinks. It features a mild lemon flavor with minimal acidity.
Rather than a fresh, juicy lemon taste, it has an artificial lemon flavor with no fruit pulp or residue.
Since it belongs to the sugar-sweetened lemonade category, it does resemble sweet lemonade, but it lacks depth and richness. In Japan, this type of flavor is quite common, so it doesn't stand out as particularly delicious.
Originally, the Relentless series had a fruit juice-infused lineup, so this juice-free lemon flavor might have been introduced as a way to differentiate itself from those.
Relentless LEMON ICE Energy Ingredients
Contains 160mg of caffeine, 2000mg of taurine, maltodextrin, and guarana—standard energy drink ingredients. However, it does not contain any lemon juice.
Relentless LEMON ICE Design
During the Coca-Cola era, the Relentless series was known for its divine, intricate designs. This one appears to depict some kind of black sphere crashing into another.
Here’s a comparison of the UK and German versions of Lemon Ice:
The chaotic design makes it hard to decipher, but it seems to show meteor-like spheres colliding, along with what appears to be dinosaur fossils. Could it be depicting the moment the world ended?
The variation in print clarity and the presence (or absence) of poetic elements make some versions much harder to interpret than others.
The designs of other Relentless flavors are just as impressive, so be sure to check out all the Relentless reviews!
