I had my first braintoniq today. Icy cold, drunk out by the pool. It was refreshing and I liked the light flavor. To me it tasted like kiwi grapefruit and left no icky sweet aftertaste like so many fruity drinks do. I just wish the can was bigger.

I tried my first one today. I like the ingredients in it. I get headaches from drinks loaded with caffeine. Though was surprised a little on the taste. It reminds me a little of that punch you get at all the weddings.

I just “stumbled upon” your site today and I’m thoroughly enjoying it. It’s strange how these things work but Ive had a few of these (not to mention my share of energy drinks) and I think they probably do make my mind a little clearer if not smarter. I also work at a small chain retail store comparable to whole foods and we sell them (but I tried it before I worked there). Brain toniq tastes a lot smoother than red bull and it’s not nearly as sweet. I am no fan of red bull in the first place, it tastes ok but the price is high and caffeine content low compared to most other energy drinks. I have a hunch the immediate effects of brain toniq are probably due to the siberian ginseng. We also sell small cheap vials of panax ginseng and though they taste horrible, they seem to power me mentally and physically through the work day.

I am drinking one as I type this and it definitely has a more refreshing and clear taste than red bull or any other energy drink I have tried(and I have had nearly every energy drink). Red bulls and such are much more potent on taste like you can taste the sugar so it has a kick to it. Whereas this drink is more like flavored water. Aside from taste, I can’t say it’s really affecting my brain in anyway. Surely not keeping me awake so that’s good that’s not what it’s for! I’m going to try it for a few days and see how it goes. I’m studying for a big text next week and get distracted easily so hopefully it helps!

the taste wasn’t bad at all, perhaps not what i might look for in a beverage, but definitly NOT bad or ‘mediciney’, and i like that its not really fizzy also

So refreshing to see a drink with ingredients that you can actually read and identify! I will have to try this out.
Thanks for the post.

i drank a brain toniq today and i’m not sure i’d call it smarter per se but i do feel a lot more, how shall i say, clearer in thought or more alert perhaps… come to think of it, i didn’t have too much trouble with the fill in the gap puzzle tonight, maybe it is smarter after all
