G Fuel Elden Ring Crimson Tears Energy Drink Powder, Pre Workout Caffeine Mix for Gaming, Sugar Free Focus Amino, Vitamin + Antioxidants, 9.9oz (Prickly Pear, 40 Servings)

I didn't buy this so much as it's marketed for gamers, but I got it because well I like Elden Ring, prickly pear is a unique flavor that is hard to replicate, and I need a consistent flow of caffeine for my daily needs. As a full time warehouse employee and a full time student, I need energy drinks to simply tolerate my day. It's not so much I need the "focus of G fuel" as much as I need to replace vitamins I don't have time or the money to get via traditionally cooked and prepared foods and concentrated vitamins. This was a very surprising solution. I loved a prickly pear that was added to my margaritas in Arizona and since then I've been looking for that flavor and I'm very impressed. The theme around the Elden Ring edition is around the Crimson Tears Flask your character uses to replenish health. It's similar in color and the unique flavor does make you think if this really was from the Lands Between. But weird allusions aside. It is a spot on flavor and I was not disappointed at all in it. In fact a BIG smile was on my face knowing I found something like this. The caffeine content isn't crazy like a Bang or Alani, but it "feels" like I get my kick sooner and with less slog afterwards. But I HAVE noticed I get a slight headache if I don't eat alongside with sipping on this through the day, so it is a disclaimer worth mentioning. As for the solubility of it, there is a common problem of residual powder that isn't being mixed. From my searching and talking between some fellow students in chemistry courses, this MOSTLY is the added vitamins and nutrients rather than the main powder. My best cost effective solution thus far has been to dunk some cold water into a reusable water bottle/flask, toss some ice cubes to add agitation and increase the general water content and I shake it between my sips, that way I have SOME of the nutrients versus having this weird wine-like sediment to top off the drink. All in all, for being Elden Ring inspired its been a fantastic replacement to my daily spending of cans of energy drinks and I hope this review was objective enough for you to make an informed purchasing decision. If you're a first time buyer just... word of warning... don't fill your scoop to the tip top (with the spout)... your butt and tastebuds will thank you later.

I got into GFUEL a couple months ago after seeing the sponsorships for it from a couple of YouTubers I watch. I thought why not, I'm tired of spending a ton of money on gas station energy drinks that only seem to leave me drained after the first hour or so. I'm genuinely impressed, the first worry I had was the sugar free part. I always struggle finding sugar free drinks that don't taste like what I imagine battery acid does. (Think making kool-aid packets without the sugar *shudders*) To my surprise, GFUEL nailed it. Crimson Tears is by far my favorite flavor so far, followed up by Divine Peach and PewDiePies flavor. I've had a couple I personally don't care for like the Raspberry Tea but I'm also picky with drink flavors so take that with a grain of salt. If you don't like your first flavor I highly recommend trying a different one (Crimson Tears is my recommendation 🤤) I typically drink 2 bottles of water worth in a day, one in the morning before work and one towards the evening to keep my energy up for the remainder of the day. All in all. 5 Stars, across the board. Flavor ⚔ Energy ⚔ No crash ⚔ Value/Quantity ⚔

In 1984 my parents and I moved to Arizona. Every now and then we'd hit this little fruit stand on the Tempe Phoenix border. There was sold the soft squishy gum drop like squares of JOY! Arizona Cactus Candy! And even after I learned to drive, I to only made the occasional trip ther, heck, even girls I dated were luck if they got one box. Not selfish, they were not expensive. But I didn't want them too often. Wanted to keep them as a special treat! And so they stayed. Like a personal version of the Mc Rib so to speak 😆 Well in 99 when I knew I had to leave Arizona I got some for the road. My last one was eaten near Tucumcari NM... I have longed for this flavor ever since! Crimson Tears, have brought me joy! That Cactus Candy I dearly remember lives in this magical tub of powder! Also a couple tears of sadness, ive never felt this home sick before... but the beverage helps a bit!

It's pretty good! The Crimson Tears GFuel is dark red and has a nice juicy pear flavor. In my opinion, it's not quite as tasty as some of the mainstays (pewdiepie flavor and watermelon are a couple of my favorites) but the flavor is very solid. For some reason the caffeine energy mix was not broken down very well so there were pretty large crystals of it that ended up at the bottom of my cup when I drank it the first couple times. It makes the last few sips bitter and kinda nasty so I'd definitely recommend using a shaker ball with this one and shake it for a while to get the caffeine and stuff to make a nice homogenous solution. In short, try it out! It's a pretty good flavor and it almost helps you forget the pain of being maidenless. Almost.

Taste is very good.

Interesting flavor

I bought this because I have a favorite drink at Biggby Coffee that is an Italian soda with prickly pear and caffeine that I know is a limited time item. I was hoping this would taste similar so when they discontinue it I'll still have my fruity go-go juice. It doesn't taste exactly like the Biggby drink, but it's close enough! I may have used too much water so the taste is a mild juicy pickly pear with a sorta pixie stixs powdery finish (I did fully dissolve the powder, too! It just is a little powdery). Most energy drinks make me uncomfortably jittery, but so far I haven't had that issue. It's keeping me functioning while having bronchitis so that should count for something! My only (personal) problem is this flavor is also supposedly limited edition so who knows how long I'll be able to enjoy it.
