Energy Drink, Original, 16 Fl Oz Cans (Pack of 12)

my favorite

After not being able to find these easily at big box stores, I ended up ordering them on Amazon, and I’m glad I did. I’ve been drinking Rockstar for about 15 years at this point, so it’s a hard habit to break, and it’s nice to have a reliable way to keep them stocked. I’m a working adult, but I still like the taste, and I need something to help me stay focused during the day. I also like knowing exactly how much caffeine I’m getting, which feels more consistent than coffee, where it can vary quite a bit. The price on Amazon made it a solid deal compared to what I’ve seen in stores, especially when they’re hard to find locally. The cans arrived in good condition with no dents or leaks. Overall, this is a convenient and cost-effective way to keep something I already use regularly on hand. I’ll keep ordering it this way.

My two cases come but came missing with missing can. Not a full case

There isnt anything better than a Rockstar. It reminds me when I was a kid and my uncle would let me have sips of his.

Love this drink will return to buy more

Authentic Original Rockstar. However, 1 out of the 12 cans had burst in transit.

All cans arrived, undented. Very nice.

Rockstar Original has been the best tasting out of all energy drinks for a long time. It had a bite at the back of the throat almost like alcohol or something and the flavor is tangy and slightly sour in a really delicious way. I literally never get tired of it. I completely replaced coffee with it. I was a little concerned when they were bought out by PepsiCO, but assumed that surely they wouldn't mess with the flagship product. I was foolishly naive. No bite, no tang, just rancid awful sweetness. The same undertaste that stops me from drinking most other energy drinks. I can't believe that they bought it out just to make it taste exactly as bad as all the others. I had to cancel my subscriptions immediately. First, they stopped selling the 24 packs, which made it all way more expensive to buy 12 packs for basically the same price. Now, they've just gone ahead and ruined the product altogether. In case you're curious, the difference seems to be that they've replaced "Sorbic Acid" and "Benzoic Acid" with "Sodium Benzoate" (that's bad) and "Potassium Sorbate" (also bad). Holding the two cans side-by-side, that appears to be the only visible difference. The Rockstar brand has a webpage with contact links. I reached out and they told me that PepsiCO is constantly adjusting it's formulas to maintain consistency of flavor. I told them that they seem to have succeeded, as I suspect that every subsequent can that I drink of this will taste exactly as gross as the last one until they change the formula back. They offered me a coupon. I said no thanks. What use is a coupon for cheaper repulsive swill? This needs to be fixed.
