Caffeine Addict's Blood Energy Potion Review

Blood energy potion really does taste like real people blood. Hold on. I mean, I know this guy who said it does. Seriously, though, it tastes "fangtasticly" fruity...just like real blood. Ah! Scratch that, what I meant to say was, nothing like real blood.

Ok, enough about people blood. Blood Energy Potion tastes great, like Hawaiian Punch. It's the only other energy shot, besides Harcos' Mana Energy Potion and Redfin Wildberry, where I found myself wishing there was more of the flavor sensation to enjoy.

Having previously worked for the Red Cross, I thought I might be put off by the IV-ish bag full of blood-looking fluid. Visually, the container and the contents are almost as shocking as Hardcore Energize Bullet. This makes a great Halloween party favor. Besides it not sparkling in the sunlight, it should be a hit with all three fans of the Twilight series.

I was pretty energized, since the bag made me think of the Red Cross, I drank one this morning with a handful of cookies. The combination of Blood Energy Potion and all the sugar from the cookies seems to be the magic formula for getting the most out of your $4 investment. That's right, $4, the one drawback. While the novelty of Blood Energy Potion is top-notch, the novelty wears off fast when it's 1 Blood Energy Potion or 1 Magic the Gathering Zendikar booster pack. A chuckle at the company Halloween, some moderate energy and a marginal chance of impressing Tina from accounting? Or a chance at getting another Bloodghast and pwning Tina from accounting with your mad Magic skills and sweet Vampire deck?

I have consumed a total of 3 Blood Energy Potions, I was not profoundly affected by two of them, and I did feel a reasonable boost with the other. Overall, I would say buy this for fun and taste more than energy. ROFL with your friends at the Living with Bloodlust website. The packaging is unique, the taste is good, and with Twilight all in your face, it's a segue into how stupid tween vampire movies are, and how you're only going to see it for Taylor Lautner...certainly not for Kristen Stewart's "acting"...which is one of the seventy four reasons never to watch Adventureland.

Energy Junkie's Blood Energy Potion Review

Blood Energy Potion is one tasty beverage. It really reminds me of when I was a kid and loved getting some sweet Capri Sun. Similar to Capri Sun, Blood Energy Potion comes in nifty pouch. Unlike Capri Sun, the Blood Energy Potion pouch looks like a blood transfusion bag complete with bloody finger prints all over it. Harcos, the makers of Health Energy Potion and Mana Energy Potion, have really nailed the packaging on this drink!

The taste of Blood Energy Potion is awesome! It tastes a lot like Rockstar Punched, which in my opinion is one of the best tasting drinks on the market. I expected Blood Energy Potion to be a bit thicker and taste a bit more iron laden, as much as the packaging promotes it's bloody similarities. Overall, the taste is great and you will not be satisfied with just one pouch. The great taste is greatly offset by the cost. The vampire in me loves the blood substitute, but the cheap human in me detests the $3.99 price tag for a 3.4oz pouch. This is especially displeasing when you realize that the human body stores about 5.6 liters of REAL blood. So I can save a lot of money by unleashing my vampiric fury. It appears that Harcos has no desire to stop the slaughter of innocent humans by making their product so price prohibitive that a "honest" vampire would have to resort to illicit activities to pay for the life-giving substitute that he so dearly needs.

The energy aspect of Blood Energy Potion was lacking. I didn't feel particularly energetic after slamming one back. The first one I drank was after a large meal at Red Robin. I had gorged myself on a Chili Chili Cheeseburger and felt quite lethargic. The Blood Energy Potion didn't seem to make much of a difference. The second Blood Energy Potion I had was in the morning on an empty stomach. Once again, I felt no noticeable difference in my energy level.

The upside of Blood Energy Potion is that it's delicious, it's unique, and it gives dumb vamp kids something to drink other than Clamato juice. The downside is that it's pricey and isn't all that energetic.
