Default Red Bull Cola

Has anyone else tried this stuff? It is 100% natural, and the flavors are amazing! I have used it as a mixer, and just as a daily pairing for my smokes instead of Dr. Pepper. I think I may prefer it over Dr. Pepper while smoking. Please note, this is not their traditional energy drink, but a fairly new offering.

I've had it.. Wasn't that crazy about it but I rarely drink pop. Tasted kinda flat.

Default Re: Red Bull Cola

and while there is Coca Leaf extract in it for flavor, remember, there is NO Cocaine in it, so it's safe for the kids, folks.


I haven't tried it, but I do like colas, and I remember drinking a lot of Kraeting Daeng before they screwed with the recipe for Red Bull.

I wish I could find the KD locally, it seems to have disappeared, and shipping is probably a killer on it. I used to be able to find it at 2 or 3 grocery stores within 10 miles of my house.

Yep, thats the stuff. I too thought it tasted flat at first, but have since grown to like the level of carbonation. It is just not super over carbonated like diet coke. I hope it stays on the market, it has not been overly popular here....

I love Red Bull, but the Cola isn't all that great to me. I'd rather have a Pepsi, Coke, or RC.

I've had this, thought it was OK but I prefer plain old coke. It reminded me of the "gourmet" cola they sell at whole foods.

Default Re: Red Bull Cola

I didn't like it but than again last year when I was working in racing we did work with Redbull and it wasn't unusual to have palettes of Redbull in the shop at all times so we all quickly got sick of everything they produced. I am just now finally being able to stomach the taste of it again but still prefer NOS and Liquid Ice over it. I hate Monster too. For me though the cola was just never enjoyable.

Default Re: Red Bull Cola

I had one and it tasted like a sack of dirty buttholes... I got a refund and bought a Monster (green) and never looked back at the crap. I love Redbull but the Cola........ eh.


I talked to a Redbull distributor that said Redbull lost a crapload of money on that cola venture and I don't think they are making it or will make it much more longer. Sometime this spring they are supposed to release other flavored Redbulls; like a citrus and a berry.
Redbull should stick to Redbull and the ONLY flavor they should produce is Jagerbomb flavor.

I got a free case once and thought it was really good! I haven't gone out in search of it since, but the flavor tasted very natural, not too sweet, and not too much carbonation. It reminded me of some kind of natural style soda you would see at whole food, or your local hippie food market.

definitely worth a try!

I love Red Bull Cola. Not much a soda drinker, but I was impressed with the couple I tried. It's the perfect synergy of Cola and Red Bull. If you don't like Red Bull, there's not much to talk about then...

Diet Red Bull and Vodka is a great club drink!

If you are expecting a coca cola or pepsi taste don't bother. Its good in its own right.
