So I love the taste of energy drinks, but I hate the caffeine since it doesn’t let me sleep when i drink it with dinner is there a drink that can accomplish my goal or is the taste in the caffeine?
EDIT: I figured it out so i you add water saffron rock candy and sugar add some sparkling water with lemon flavor then mix I haven’t figured out how to make it as sour tho, but it’s close in my opinion if you get the amounts right, but energy drinks have that artificial flavor so I can never make it truly the same
Caffeine is bitter. That’s why they mask it with sweet flavors in soda. Just drink it during the day as a treat occasionally and have water (or something else) with dinner?
Lmao you okay good buddy?
caffeine free coke seems like the easiest solution.
However, what I’d recommend is taking a handful of ice cubes, placing them in a glass of plain water, and then drinking that instead.
Seltzer with 5 grams of sugar.
What about just taking a regular energy drink with some sleeping tablets?
Heart: What could go wrong?
Maybe try drinking a battery?
Have you tried Guaraná?
I find it tastes a bit like a mix of red bull and mountain dew. It’s a soda, but very close to energy drink taste
It has caffeine though, and a mix of other compounds that have a similar effect as an energy drink, so it would not help with sleeping.
Be careful chasing the acidity of energy drinks. Full throttle is around 2 pH, not so good for your teeth or stomach health.
What are you eating for dinner that the taste of energy drink goes well with it?
Doritos. And a gas station hotdog.
That hotdog’s looking pretty rough by dinner time
You sir are broken.
Carry on.
I’ve seen concentrate with energy drink flavour. I tried it. Tastes like generic energy drink.
Just mix it with water.
I find that Pommac has remotely similar taste without actually being an energy drink.
NileRed who makes entertaining chemistry videos of making random things, has a video on making a caffeine free Red Bull:

Its pretty much a guide on making it yourself if you’re daring and have the resources. And don’t forget to follow that up with his video on how he turned latex gloves into hot sauce .
Dump a couple of random Kool-aid packs into a pitcher with a few cups of sugar. Then mix it up with the liquid from one car battery.
if you want more sourness maybe try adding some powdered citric acid or malic acid, whatever you can find at a grocery store. It’ll be in the spice aisle.
ty i will try
In my grocery store it’s called Sour Salt (there’s no salt in it) and it’s in the Jewish section near the jars of borscht.
But another way would be to squeeze a slice of lemon into it.
