ProSupps Hyde Power Potion Vibes (Berry Colada) Review
Taste
Vibes (Berry Colada) – This is a Vitamin Shoppe exclusive flavor in collaboration with DJ Khaled. Just like all of the Hyde flavors they are far sweeter compared to their competition with favors a stronger carbonation. On the first sip you get a blend of strawberry, blueberry, and raspberry. Once the aftertaste kicks in you taste the enhanced sweetness, which propels the berry flavors. On a warm summer afternoon this is an incredibly refreshing drink that packs a punch. Given I have a sweet tooth this hit the spot and is their #1 flavor in my opinion. The way each flavor compliments each other is great, and none of them overpower each other.
Formula
The Formula is very identical to its main competitor VPX Bang. Both energy drinks contain BCAA’s, Taurine, Vitamin B6/B12, and COQ10.
Power Potion Has:
350mg Caffeine (Stim)
LCLT → Enhance Recovery
Choline → Nootropic (To help prolong caffeine half life)
Citrulline → Help with Pump and preventing lactic acid build up
Cost
This is an exclusive to VS; therefore you will only be able to get it there. The prices are a bit high ($2.50/Can), or $35/Case. . Given it is an exclusive I had to pick up a few cans to try out. Given this is one of their best flavors I would pay for this once in a blue moon, but would rather pay $1.44/Can or $21.60/Case and save myself some good money if stocking up or buying in bulk.
Stim
With a 50mg difference in stims (300 in Bang vs 350 in Hyde Power Potion) there is a difference, but that is mostly due to the nootropics. The additions of teacrine and choline, helps smooth out and prolong the energy drink. The best part is I never got any jitters, which can be an issue with high-stimulated products. Given my schedule of waking up at 3:30 AM, or being up until 2 A.M. these provide the strongest amount of energy compared to any of its competition.
