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 ROCKSTAR JUICED Mango Orange Passion Fruit

As soon as I opened it, a rich, sweet aroma burst out with the carbonation. This promised a bold flavor! ((o(´∀｀)o))

When poured into a glass, it maintains a bit of transparency, with a bright yet cloudy orange Rockstar... The slight cloudiness is probably from the 10% fruit juice. It's very beautiful (●´ω｀●)

The taste is dominated by the strong tartness of passion fruit. The main flavor is a refreshing orange, blended with tropical fruits like passion fruit and mango.

Unlike the aroma, the sweetness is almost non-existent, and the flavor is consistently marked by a strong, distinctive tartness. This tartness and aroma have the boldness typical of an energy drink. While preferences may vary, it’s the kind of intense flavor that makes you think, "This is what energy drinks are about!"

Refreshing without the heaviness

Even though it's flavored with a strong tartness from mango, orange, and passion fruit, it’s still refreshing to drink. The fruit juice content is only 10%, so it doesn’t leave behind a heavy, sugary taste.

By the time I had finished half the can, I could really feel the "extra strength" this drink offers. The intensity doesn’t just hit while drinking, but lingers in your throat and mouth after you’ve finished, leaving a stimulating sensation and fragrance. Despite the high sugar content, the citrusy tartness comes forward strongly, making it feel incredibly intense (ヽ´ω`).

By the way, even after washing the can with hot water, the citrus scent lingered, so I had to wash it a few more times with detergent. If you're not a fan of citrusy scents, it might be a bit difficult to drink. It could even cause a little indigestion (^_^;)

Design of ROCKSTAR JUICED Mango Orange Passion Fruit

This ROCKSTAR JUICED Mango Orange Passion Fruit has a new design, and I was surprised to see how stylish it looked compared to the previous design, which had a more classic, textured finish.

When I think of Rockstar, I remember the colorful, textured cans from the past. (Although it's unlikely, if I can get my hands on one of the older cans, I’ll do a review.)

Personally, I prefer the newly revamped design, and I hope they continue to release Rockstar in cool, colorful designs like this.
