S BUDGET ENERGY DRINK Juneberry
Released in 2023 as part of the private brand energy drink series from the European supermarket chain "SPAR," this is the Juneberry flavor.
That summer, Red Bull also released the Red Bull SUMMER EDITION 2023 Juneberry, and this affordable energy drink was released to compete with that. It's up to the consumer to decide which one to choose. Let's dive into how this one compares in flavor to Red Bull.

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 S BUDGET ENERGY DRINK Juneberry
When opened, a sweet and tangy blueberry aroma bursts out. The scent is almost identical to Red Bull Juneberry, and the color of the drink is also almost the same purple. It's truly a budget clone of the reigning champion, Red Bull. Let's take a sip.
Upon tasting, the sweet and tangy blueberry flavor is light and refreshing, with a pronounced sourness that gives it a clean aftertaste, making it very drinkable.
Similar to Red Bull, the fruitiness isn't particularly strong, but the sweet and sour notes of the Juneberry are pleasantly enjoyed, and they don't linger too long. Combined with the crispness of the carbonation, the refreshing sensation is also noticeable.
It’s a perfectly viable alternative to Red Bull, offering no unpleasant or odd flavors. You can enjoy the tasty Juneberry flavor at a low price. Given that you can experience a similar taste for about a third of the price, many may opt for S BUDGET.
Energy Ingredients of S BUDGET ENERGY DRINK Juneberry
It contains 80mg of caffeine and 1000mg of taurine. No other energy ingredients are included.
Design of S BUDGET ENERGY DRINK Juneberry
The design features a bright blue base with the SPAR pine tree logo, a common design for the series. This blue is said to be inspired by Red Bull Juneberry's color.
The retro-style Juneberry illustration is featured, making it easier to imagine the flavor inside, which is perhaps an improvement over Red Bull.
Being a private brand product from a supermarket chain, the design is overall simple and unadorned, but as long as it's clear that it’s a SPAR PB energy drink and a Juneberry flavor, there's no issue with it.
What's interesting is that this drink was released alongside Red Bull’s version of the same flavor, and after Red Bull made it a regular product, S BUDGET continued to sell it as a standard offering as well.
