Koks
Pure white
Energy
Firstly we
would like to say that ,,koks” is the German word for cocaine.
Cocaine as
a drug is well known. It’s a white powder for doping your consciousness. But
it’s not necessary that you get addict of drugs for getting this effect. The
Energy – Drink Koks is available on the market which has got similar characteristics.
Koks is snow-white like the drug koks. This drink and his effects we are going
to present to you today. At this point we would like to say a big thank-you to
the Koks – team because they sent us the products for testing.
The ingredients
of Koks energy aren’t the same as the ones in the drug:
whey powder
(51%), water, sugar, glucose,
carbon dioxide, citric acid, taurine (0.4%), stabilizer E414, flavorings including caffeine, maltodextrin, glucuronolactone (0.025%), flavor, inositol (0.01% ),
stabilizer E445, coloring E171, niacin, pantothenic acid, preservative E211, vitamin B6, vitamin B12
And here
are the most important nutritional values that 100ml provides:
Caffeine 32mg
Calories 205kJ/48kcal
Protein <0,1g
Carbohydrates 11,8g
Fat <0,1g
Dietary
fiber <0,1g
Sodium <0,1g
We
criticize this drink at the following criteria:
-Smell
-Taste
-Design
-Effect
Smell
The smell
of this Energy – Drink isn’t the same as the smell of a typical Energy – Drink.
You are going to smell a mix of lemon aroma and the typical energy aroma. The
lemon aroma is as strong as the typical energy aroma.
Taste
For testing
this drink we put one can into the fridge and the other one we kept in a room
with a normal room – temperature. Firstly we are reporting about the taste of the warm drink and then what is different to
the cold one.
How the
producer promised us this drink is not a ‘normal’ Energy – Drink. If you taste
this drink you will firstly notice a kind of the typical energy – taste, but
directly after this the drink is developing his real taste. The aroma of corn
sugar and lemon is coming through and dominates the whole drink. It’s a very
likeable and fresh taste that is refreshing the consumer very much. At this
point the carbon dioxide is another thing that supports the freshness. It’s as
stronger as in other drinks but it perfectly goes with the rest of this drink.
Furthermore there is to say that the lemon taste is as much stronger as the
corn sugar taste.
At the
aftertaste you only taste the citrus aroma which doesn’t stay there for a long
time.
Now there
is only left to tell you the changes of the taste if you drink Koks cold. We
have got to say that the warm Koks was refreshing already, but the cold one is
still more refreshing.
Design
The design of
the can is in a glossy black. At the front of the can you can see the logo of
the concern. There are the words „koks – PURE WHITE ENERGY“ written in white of
course. But the producer thought that that isn't similar enough to the
"real" cocaine, so he wrote the words as they were formed out of
"cocaine - lines". But the concern contrived one more highlight. All
words are a little bit rough so that it feels like there is cocaine-powder on
the can.
Effect
Koks Energy’s
effect is of course not the same as the real cocaine but you feel that you get
awake even it is not strongly.
Conclusion
To sum up,
we would say that Koks – Energy is something special. Because of its
extraordinary name that you immediately associate with the drug cocaine,
everyone would like to test this drink if he sees it in the supermarket.
Everyone has to test this drink one time, as it has a taste that is something
special at the whole market. If you are consuming this drink very cold it is
the perfect summer – drink because it is refreshing you very much and keeps you
awake. But the aspect of keeping awake is individual, so it can’t be weighted
very much.
With this
Energy – Drink you can also mix very well and create a drink that is best for
you. We tried to create our own drinks and that are the results (only available
in German) :
All in all
it is an interesting drink that everyone has to test in his live. But you have
to be careful; this drink can make you addicted ;)
