Hey everybody Caffeine Man here and today it's another weekend bonus video.
That's right, these energy drink
companies, they're keeping me busy by
coming up with new products all the time.
INTRO: C  *THUD*    M  *THUD*
*Lightning Strike*
In today's video, I'm gonna be going over
the new Monster Ultra Paradise as well
as going over at the Sunrise Orange. Now
I know the Sunrise Orange isn't very new
but I haven't tried it before, so rather
than just trying out one energy drink, I
figured I'd do a review on 2. Plus, I
haven't shown Monster too much love lately,
so I figure I would do a couple of
Monster reviews. Now, I recently admitted
in one of my last videos that I'm not a
huge fan of Monster. When I first tried
it, I thought it was way too sweet and
then I saw the sugar content. That's not
good for anybody! Then I actually tried
the low-carb version, mostly because an
auction store near my house was selling
them for less than half price. I mean, I'm
not gonna pass up that offer. So I tried
the low-carb Monster for about two or
three months and I still thought it was
just okay.
But like I said, for that price, it wasn't
bad. Then, the auction that I went to
actually got one of the cases that had
the Ultra white, Ultra red and Ultra blue,
so I tried that out. I wasn't a fan of
the ultra white. I didn't really like the
ultra red. I thought the ultra blue was
kind of okay. So when it comes down to
it, I'm not totally against Monster. I
just haven't really found one that I like.
I think part of the problem is some
of the names they come up with. What's
white supposed to taste like?
What's red supposed to taste like? Is it
strawberry? Is it cherry? I mean, I don't like 
having to guess what the flavors are.
I can understand their marketing, that they
might want to have cool sounding names,
but for your regular consumer, they
wonder what flavor they're buying when
they purchase a drink. If I walk into the
store and I see "Oh Ultra red. What is it?"
When I see Red Bull Coconut, I know what
to expect. When I see Red Bull Tropical, I
know what to expect. When I see Bang
Peach Mango, I know what to expect.
So stop going with the fancy titles!!!
When I go into the store and I see Monster Ultra Sunrise Orange, "Oh I see orange! I know what that's gonna taste
like, or what it should taste like." Now, I'm not a huge fan of orange but I'm not totally against it either,
so I'll try out this Sunrise
Orange to see if it tastes like orange.
As for Paradise, one of my subscribers GAFool recommended it, so I told him I
would try it out. Of course, one of the
draws for me with the Ultra series is that it's got
zero sugar and zero calories, therefore
out of all the Monster energy drinks,
it's one of the healthier ones that they
have.
Not including Reign, because we know Reign is a
separate company. So when it comes to the
lesser of the evils, I'm ready to give
these ultras a shot. So to your surprise
this is probably gonna be a short video
because I'm jumping into the taste test right now!!!
First, I'm gonna start off with
the Sunrise Orange.
That's really good.
You got an obvious strong orange flavor
which is what you want when you're gonna
be drinking an orange drink. It's what
you expect when you drink a Monster
drink. It's not overly sweet, due to
its lack of sugar, they use sucralose but
they seem to use a little bit less
sucralose then probably Bang or Monster Reign.
Now don't get me wrong
it still does have a bit of sweetness to
it. It's still sweeter than the Celsius
and a few other energy drinks out there.
So if you like orange energy drinks,
feel free to go ahead and pick up the
Sunrise Orange Monster.
Next let's try the new ultra paradise. I am a little excited to try this one because ever since I had the Red Bull
tropical, I didn't know that I was that big of a fan
of tropical. Usually I don't like the
citrus kind of flavor's, like pineapple
and orange, but I started to acquire a
taste for them since the tropical and
since I heard the Paradise has a
tropical feel to it, I'm excited to try
it out.
hmmm it's interesting.
It's got a hint of tropical feel to it but in typical Monster fashion, that I don't like, I can't quite pinpoint many of the
flavors. It's got a Monster flavor to it and
that's what I actually called most of the
Monster flavors. I don't know what
Monster tastes like, this just has that
Monster flavor. With the Monster white, it has a Monster white flavor. The Monster red has a Monster red flavor.
I can pick up, like, maybe a touch of Kiwi and some touch of tropical flavors but I can't pinpoint
anything. I can't tell you that it tastes
like pineapple, I can't tell you that it
tastes like coconut, because I can't get
any of those flavors out of it because
it's not strong in any of them. With the
Sunrise Orange, I could tell you that
tasted like a strong orange. This here!
I'm not sure! It's not bad, but I probably
won't be buying it again because I don't
know what it tastes like! It tastes okay.
I think I can taste a hint of lime in
there as well, but it's really hard to
say. All I can say is it does have a little
bit of a tropical feel to it but it's
not strong in any of those flavors, so
why don't you guys try it out, let me
know what you think and call me stupid
in my comments for not knowing what it tastes like.
I'm stupid for doing a Monster review!
Monster and their weird flavors!
