AWESOME product, great tasting low calorie with no after taste. Wonderful Antioxidant that delivers what it claims. Increased energy levels & general feeling of well being noticeably improved. Has made a remarkable difference in my years of Fibromyalgia,Chronic Pain Syndrome & Chronic Fatigue. I would suggest this product to anyone looking for an excellent product offering antioxidant values. Thus far the best product of its kind!

I'm a runner, work a 9:00 - 5:00 as well as go to school in the evenings and before FRS I was taking 5 Hour Energy right before a run. It worked well enough but it tastes like drinking the little soap bottles used for making bubbles. Luckily it's a shot and it served it's purpose. 5 Hour Energy for me made me feel almost too wired and I noticed an elevated heart rate that made me a bit nervous.

I chose FRS as an alternative because the price difference was about the same at the time, but I was wary after reading reviews that it simply didn't work and that it came in so many different forms, which was right for me. The can seemed to be the best, I could drink it before I head out to work, or before a run and get a little push to keep me active.

For me, there wasn't any noticeable "buzz" or need to bounce off the walls, it just keeps me alert, awake, and motivated to keep going. I think people expect that high caffeinated sugar buzz that they may get from energy drinks or coffee that just isn't present here. Also the taste of FRS to me is like a mild tea. It doesn't have a strong carbonated soda taste to it with a rough back end. It also has some (at least the 24 cans I've had thus far) particles in the bottom of the can, even if you shake it. I have not tried the other flavors or the other FRS products aside from the Low Calorie Wild Berry. The other forms of FRS may differ from my experience.

I really like FRS, and I actually look forward to drinking it when I get to work, like others do with coffee. My only problem is when I ordered my first shipment of FRS it was 28 dollars for 24 cans, and now the price has doubled and it just isn't reasonable to pay a little over 2 dollars a can for the product.

I have tried several energy drinks and this product is at the top of my list. Many others contain lots of sugar and caffeine but FRS works in a different way with quercetin, vitamins and only 25 calories. I usually will drink 1 can at mid morning to get a renewed lift. It's not going to be so noticeable like a caffeine buzz or sugar high but the day goes by better with it than without. I must say that Amazon seems to be the best place to buy FRS and save money.

I don't work out but I need energy drinks just to get through the day. FRS has made it so I don't need a nap and I don't feel sluggish all the time. The drink seems a little concentrated to me so I mix it half with water or put it in a cup with a bunch of ice. The wild berry kind of tastes like a smoothie if you put crushed ice in it.

By using FRS, my workout intensity has increased far past anything I ever expected from an antioxidant health beverage. I no longer feel fatigued during or after an intense workout and enjoy the satisfaction of knowing I'm doing something extremely healthy for my body. I strongly reccomend this product to any health conscious/active consumer!!!

This is regarding the regular Orange FRS canned drink.

It seems every time I finally find an energy drink that fits my requirements (no high fructose corn syrup, no carbonation, tastes good) they stop making it. I'm down to my last case of GURU JUICY ORANGE which fit all three of my requirements very nicely so I have to find something new to replace it.

the Orange FHS looked promising. Organic. No carbonation. Orange flavor. It had potential for being a replacement for the GUR JUICY that I really enjoyed.

But I couldn't drink this stuff. The smell alone was horrible. I mean awful. Like cat food or tuna fish awful, certainly not a smell you want coming from a can of something that is supposed to be ORANGE. Foul. Just wrong.

I couldn't drink even half the can, I dumped it down the drain and then had to rinse the can a couple of times to get the smell to go away. I'm so glad I didn't invest in an entire case of this stuff. It has everything I want in an energy drink except it is undrinkable. I don't know what is in this stuff to make it smell and taste so bad but wow, this was the worst energy drink I've ever tried.

Make note when you are reading the other reviews - quite a few mention that they like the energy it gives them and just to ignore the taste. That should clue you in right there that this isn't winning points in the "Tastes great" department. Pick up a can at your local Whole Foods and give it a try before investing in a case of this product - just to make sure you know what you are getting yourself into.

How on earth are people drinking this stuff? It boggles my mind.

I will never know how well the product works because I will never ingest it. Once I got past how the look of it (like melted fluorescent slime) I took a sip and almost puked. I am not a very picky eater in terms of taste. I even enjoyed basic training food! I couldn't believe I missed the ingredient sucralose before I purchased it. I never would've bought it. Fortunately I only lost $2 on these.

Liked it at $25 a case on auto-ship.
Dislike it at $48 a case on auto-ship.

The price hike took me away as a customer.

If the price went back down, I would consider getting it again; it seems to do its job in giving me a boost without a crash. The Low Cal WIld Berry was by far the best tasting variety; the orange tastes like a watered-down screwdriver, and the peach mango didn't do much for me.

When I initially read the ingredients of this drink I got excited because it was supposedly "all natural". The non-carbonation and the fruit juice were a plus. Then when I went to taste I was like "what?". Its absolutely disgusting. I thought maybe it would be a taste I could get used to but I can barely stomach it. After reading further I realized that its sweetened with stevia. I've had stevia in another energy drink and that drink was just as disgusting. Therefore my conclusion is that stevia is disgusting. I'll stick to honey, agave, and organic sugar thank you very much.

Not vendors fault!! - This is the first shipment I have received from the new formula of this product and it seems more watery.
