3D Energy Drink : Strawberry Lemonade

3D Energy Drink : Strawberry Lemonade

This is the most confusing 3D Energy Drink of them all. There seems to be two versions; one with and one without the Strawberry Lemonade label on the front; with different tastes. Perhaps it’s a psychological trick, but the plain one tastes plain. Even more baffling is that, at one point, only the former was featured on the official site but called Chrome.

Pure Life Purified Water

Pure Life Purified Water

You do need it for Life, but not all drinking water; the bottled type you buy from a store; is made the same. This BlueTriton brand is Purified “using reverse osmosis” and “enhanced with minerals for a crisp taste”, but I prefer my water distilled with no flavor at all.

Homestead Creamery Eggnog

Homestead Creamery Eggnog

The presentation is elite, or perhaps just nostalgic, in that this Eggnog comes not in a carton but a glass bottle like the milkman used to delivery a century ago. The taste is comparatively unexceptional. It’s good but not as thick and gourmet as you might anticipate from the looks of it.

Trader Joe’s Egg Nog

Trader Joe's Egg Nog

Trader Joe’s Egg Nog is far from the best. The carton describes it as “rich and creamy”, but it actually seems quite diluted as if he (Joe) added too much milk and not enough of the good stuff. Still it’s a mildly pleasant drink; it’s egg nog after all; especially when consumed with graham crackers or the like.

Hood Golden Eggnog

Hood Golden Eggnog

The Golden bit is appropriate in that this Eggnog; a “limited edition” Hood product; has an almost caramel aftertaste. That helps make it the sweet treat it is, especially when served ice-cold like the neighborhood in the illustration on the carton. There’s also a recipe for Eggnog Cake, which sounds good.
