I got mine there as well. I'm drinking it right now. Definitely an acquired taste but as long as it does its job I don't care. The energy shots are really nasty but I'll endure two seconds worth of nasty for three hours' worth of energy. A fellow Big Lot-ter! I got mine there as well. I'm drinking it right now.

I found it at "Big Lots" for $.50, and it is delicious. I won't consume high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, sweeteners or flavors, or preservatives. Consequently, I appreciate that this drink is completely natural. It's not got an overly excessive amt. of caffeine, and it does not have harsh acids that can damage your tooth enamel. I bought every one that was on the shelf. i'm not sure why you've pooh poohed this drink. I found it at "Big Lots" for $.50, and it is delicious.

I'll just come to the conclusion that no matter how healthier it may be, it still sucks. I'll stick to Pepsi (plus I found this in only one store, for nearly twice the price of a 12oz can of soda).

It's a healthier and more natural alternative to Coke / Pepsi and it has the right amount of kick without being overly caffienated. I like the fact that it's not too sweet and has an interesting melange of flavors (lime, vanilla, ginger, etc.). The taste is too sophisticated for the sugar addicted masses in the U.S. and unfortunately I predict it will fail here... I don't drink Red Bull, but I absolutely love this drink.

I was first greeted with a taste not unlike Boylan's Cane Cola. But unlike the aforementioned soda, the after taste of Simply Cola was terrible. It was strong, bitter, and I never got used to it. I tried eating food with it but the bitter taste kept intruding on my meal. I was disappointed with the results, especially at the premium price they charge. Avoid this cola if you don't like strong bitterness in your drinks. I recently bought this drink (which set me back $2 for a can!) and was excited to find out if I got my money's worth.

I havent done any tests, but considering the ingredients of this drink, I would have to say that this is probably healthier in terms of cola than a COKE or PEPSI. This drink is aimed at being refreshing while not overly powering with caffeine, yet containing more "natural" ingredients aimed at an audience more inclined to try a cola that isn't so bad for you. I may be willing to bet that this cola isn't stripping bolts or paint like its competitors. Hmmm…..whats the point of this RED BULL Cola?

I thought it was delicious. You see I found out about 2 years ago that I am allergic to the ingredients in Coke and Pepsi-Coke being my favorite. The ingredients in Red Bull Cola do not give me the same reaction. So I am PUMPED up to have found a drink that taste very similar to Coke, but has better ingredients. Unfortunately 7-11 did not sell enough to keep the Cola in stock, so now I have to find it elsewhere. Oh, and by the way, it had enough caffeine to wake me up!!

I would love to try it as I am a huge fan of the energy drink. And of couse, being a big Nascar fan cheering for Red Bull Racing (Brian Vickers specifically), I'd love to support them any way I can. I'll definately keep an eye out for it! I just heard about this. I would love to try it as I am a huge fan of the energy drink.
