RYSE FUEL Kool-Aid TROPICAL PUNCH
Here is my review of the "RYSE FUEL Kool-Aid TROPICAL PUNCH," which was released in July 2022 as a collaboration flavor with Kool-Aid.
This flavor, which was already available in RYSE's supplement line, has finally made its way into the energy drink series, RYSE FUEL. With this, RYSE FUEL now releases its third collaboration product, following major brands like "Sunny D" and "Ring Pop."
As RYSE FUEL expands its distribution from supplement stores to supermarkets and other retail outlets, this RYSE FUEL Kool-Aid TROPICAL PUNCH collaboration seems to be a key product. Let's dive into the review.

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 RYSE FUEL Kool-Aid TROPICAL PUNCH
When you open the can, a light fruit punch and cherry aroma fills the air. The color is just like a classic fruit punch. Let's give it a try.
The first sip reveals a sweet and sour, light fruit punch flavor with a clean, refreshing taste, thanks to its sugar-free formula. The sweetness is moderate and not overpowering.
The aroma is also much more subtle compared to other fruit punch-flavored drinks from different brands, offering a gentler overall taste.
Kool-Aid, founded in 1927, is a traditional American drink made by dissolving powdered ingredients in water. The taste is based on Kool-Aid's original flavor, which can be adjusted with sugar according to personal preference. So, if we were to consider the base flavor of original Kool-Aid, the taste here is likely kept light, rather than being intense.
Alternatively, it could be designed to offer a cleaner taste and aroma, making it suitable for a pre-workout energy drink.
Energy Ingredients of RYSE FUEL Kool-Aid TROPICAL PUNCH

Design of RYSE FUEL Kool-Aid TROPICAL PUNCH
At the top of the can, the Kool-Aid logo is placed, with a blue can that follows the design of the original Kool-Aid, featuring the character from the fruit punch flavor. This design pays homage to the original Kool-Aid, and it’s the perfect collaboration design that will undoubtedly attract all Americans at first glance.
Here’s the packaging of the original Kool-Aid TROPICAL PUNCH.
The design has been seamlessly incorporated into the RYSE FUEL packaging... no sense of awkwardness at all!
What impressed me personally was that, unlike the original Kool-Aid, RYSE FUEL’s character has a sense of dynamism. It gives off an active and energetic vibe, which feels right for an energy drink.
I realized while reviewing that the seamless integration of the energy drink and Kool-Aid brand images was possible because of this subtle yet impactful touch in the design.
