NileRed who makes entertaining chemistry videos of making random things, has a video on making a caffeine free Red Bull:

Its pretty much a guide on making it yourself if you're daring and have the resources. And don't forget to follow that up with his video on how he turned latex gloves into hot sauce .

You sir are broken.

Carry on.

if you want more sourness maybe try adding some powdered citric acid or malic acid, whatever you can find at a grocery store. It'll be in the spice aisle.

Celsius has a line for caffeine free options

Maybe grind some Smarties onto a 7UP?

What are you eating for dinner that the taste of energy drink goes well with it?

I've seen concentrate with energy drink flavour. I tried it. Tastes like generic energy drink.

Just mix it with water.

Be careful chasing the acidity of energy drinks. Full throttle is around 2 pH, not so good for your teeth or stomach health.

Green apple soda

Grapefruit soda (IE Squirt)

Fruit juices (Pineapple is great)

If you mean the very basic "original" flavor that comes from gurana berry I don't think you'll find a non-caffeinated alternative, since the berry itself has caffeine.

Lmao you okay good buddy?

Maybe try drinking a battery?

That'd really be great. I'd love making red bull cocktails without caffeine in them

They used to make an unleaded monster.

But the flavour profile of most cans is salt water taffies if that helps.

Has gen z jumped the shark?

20ml of white vinegar in 500ml of clear grape juice?

Maybe just stir some pixie sticks into a half cup of water

I find that Pommac has remotely similar taste without actually being an energy drink.

:shudder:

Dump a couple of random Kool-aid packs into a pitcher with a few cups of sugar. Then mix it up with the liquid from one car battery.

I bet you if it exists, the Scottish soft drink company Barr probably makes it

It's been absolutely years since I had either, but I reckon Tizer is probably not too far off that red bull taste. I might be completely misremembering though

Add citric acid powder to make it sour. It is in the ingredients of energy drinks as an acidity regulator but also controls sourness. Be aware it is strong, so only add a little at a time, and make sure it is fully mixed before fizzing it.

I am not sure which energy drink you are after, but Guaraná soda tastest similar to some.

Have you tried Guaraná?

I find it tastes a bit like a mix of red bull and mountain dew. It's a soda, but very close to energy drink taste

Maybe try aspartame instead of sugar?

Motor oil

What about just taking a regular energy drink with some sleeping tablets?

Caffeine is bitter. That's why they mask it with sweet flavors in soda. Just drink it during the day as a treat occasionally and have water (or something else) with dinner?

caffeine free coke seems like the easiest solution.

However, what I'd recommend is taking a handful of ice cubes, placing them in a glass of plain water, and then drinking that instead.

Xixo make some like that

edit: I remember their tutti fruity ones, got that generic energy drink flavor

I thought the caffine is what makes energy drinks taste the way they do.

I'm not sure if it's what you are looking for but I know that some energy drink manufactures offer their flavors in the form of hydration drinks.

Caffeine, like many other things, is harmful only in excessive amounts. If you drink some just for the flavour it shouldn't be a problem.

Try 4loko gold. Tastes like a energy drink but they were forced to take out the caffeine.

Caffeine can be annoying but not too harmful. It's the B vitamins you need to be careful around.

I also just want a energy-drink flavoured pop. But mostly I want the old monster assault back so bad...
