Drink Your Drink: Rockstar Coffee

Can I review drinks? I think I can.

So Rockstar, a major producer of energy drinks, has recently come out with cans of coffee. Coffee energy drinks. That you should drink at room temperature.

That's weird right?

Well they're not bad. They're not good. But they're not bad. I've drank maybe 4 or 5 of the things now (for the greater good, of course) and finally feel qualified to weigh in on them. There are two flavours available right now: Light Vanilla and Dark Mocha. At least I think that's what they're called. Why not look it up and check? Because I feel like living life on the edge. Going to print without fact checking. And because one is Vanilla and one is Mocha and let's be honest, that's close enough for anyone who cares (and anyone who doesn't). This is not rocket science.

If you drink them cold they taste like... well... like cold coffee. And they're gross. I made this mistake for the first can.

The second can got to sit on a shelf overnight and warm up a little bit. When I drank it, it was cool, but not cold, and was kind of tasty. But not really. I would have much rather been drinking real coffee. Or a cool coffee beverage courtesy of Starbucks or Second Cup or even Tim Hortons.

So don't drink Rockstar Coffee. If you want an energy drink, drink a Rockstar. If you want coffee? Go to a coffee shop.

Makes sense, doesn't it?
