Yikes, I gotta give these up. 26g of sugar? What is that, like, a million tablespoons? (Asking genuinely, sigh). There's just an obscene amount of badness in it even though it has a good amount of potassium, riboflavin, niacin and vitamin b6. But, like, what the fuck even is riboflavin, and why do we need it? I guess bing.com is my friend? And don't even get me started on niacin. And what the fuck is guarana??? It sounds: exotic, illegal, and like possibly a major component of old timey gun powder??? These random vitamins and "benefits" and shit totally make me feel like it's okay to drink this like every day, but this drink doesn't make me feel good at all? So who am I kidding lol. I def don't feel ~energized~. I mean, maybe that's cuz I'm running on like three hours of sleep most days and should not be trying to supplement sleep exhaustion with a fucking can of sugar water fortified with intriguing but unknowable ass vitamins of which it's not made explicit whether or not they actually do anything? I mean, I guess?? Or they wouldn't be included in the daily percentage thing??
My coffee and sugar addiction has gone too far. This drink is literally, like, the personification of them. (No, not literally, go back to school you stupid!!). I don't even know if this tastes good or if I just NEED my crack and my body doesn't care. My go-to ~energy~ drink before this used to be those gross ass, chalky ass Java Monsters (cheaper, sadly). That was like all I drank the entire one year I spent watching Netflix and never going to class in college. Pretty sure I would have died had I continued my "schooling" lol. Not lol though because the blood in my veins had 100% been replaced by those drinks.
Idk when I discovered Starbucks doubleshots, but it was after I left college and less felt I needed this type of drink to stay alive. I just became a ~casual~ coffee energy drink drinker. Lol. Starbucks doubleshot is at least smoother/more palatable than Java Monster, but it causes similar heart palpitations, and the sugar amount is just insane, no? Or is that common for these type of drinks? Instead of having willpower and just entirely kicking my self-prescribed coffee and sugar addictions, I will instead embark on a quest to find a "healthier" coffee energy beverage. Why don't I just die instead? :)
