Pink Lemonade 5 Hour Energy

I received this product free for review from Smiley360. All opinions are my own.

In honor of October Breast Cancer Awareness Month, 5 Hour Energy goes pink and donates a portion of proceeds to Living Beyond Breast Cancer (LBBC) from every purchase of their pink lemonade flavored 5 hour energy.
For this reason, I appreciate the brand and what they stand for, but I unfortunately did not really like the product.
Reason number 1: Taste. The product tastes awful! It is clear that some effort has been made to make the product palatable, but the flavor was very artificial and very sour.
Reason number 2: Energy payoff. I was working on my halloween costume the first time I tried the product. I did not immediately feel tired or anything, but I didn't feel any more energetic or focused after using the product. As promised, there was no crash after 5 hours, so that's a plus.

Bottom line: I didn't like it, but you might.
