Is there a drink with taste of energy drink without caffeine?

You sir are broken.
Carry on.
So many people's bodies and wallets would benefit from 6 weeks of only drinking water.
The cravings will go away, drinks you used to love will suddenly be too sweet. You will simply feel better and wonder why you were so obsessed to begin with. Then you'll buy 18 different kinds of tea to drink just 2 regularly. No idea why the last step happens, but it does.

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 .
Maybe grind some Smarties onto a 7UP?
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.
ty i will try
In my grocery store it's called Sour Salt (there's no salt in it) and it's in the Jewish section near the jars of borscht.
But another way would be to squeeze a slice of lemon into it.
Celsius has a line for caffeine free options
Watch out for the random cans with alcohol though đŸ˜‰
Lmao you okay good buddy?
Maybe try drinking a battery?
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.
I did a quick search online for caffeine-free energy drinks and saw a brand called Sparking Ice mentioned a few times as having variants without caffeine, as well as Monster Unleaded.
Be careful chasing the acidity of energy drinks. Full throttle is around 2 pH, not so good for your teeth or stomach health.
Have you tried GuaranĂ¡?
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
It has caffeine though, and a mix of other compounds that have a similar effect as an energy drink, so it would not help with sleeping.
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.
Has gen z jumped the shark?
Maybe just stir some pixie sticks into a half cup of water
Seltzer with 5 grams of sugar.
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.
:shudder:
That'd really be great. I'd love making red bull cocktails without caffeine in them
Yes; energy drinks without caffeine.
Other things give you energy...
Motor oil
What about just taking a regular energy drink with some sleeping tablets?
Heart: What could go wrong?
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.
What does "energy drink" taste like? It's just lemonade (or soda or pop or soft drink or whatever you Anglophones can't agree on to call it) and the taste depends on what's in it.
It's a distinctively unnatural taste that makes me think of the inside of chemistry glassware.
Yes, and the taste of what's in most energy drinks is what's being sought for here.
They all taste different though? The thing they have in common is caffeine.
Some "fancy" ones do taste different, but the basic ones do share a clearly distinguishable common taste.
It's a unique taste that's why I am asking
I think the classic flavor profile is sour apple, could you just juice some of those and throw them into car battery acid for the same taste?

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.
Problem is I can't sleep at night if I drink it at dinner, but I usually eat the good meals at night
i mean the whole point of energy drinks is that they have a stupid amount of caffeine
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
I am not sure which energy drink you are after, but GuaranĂ¡ soda tastest similar to some.
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?
Try 4loko gold. Tastes like a energy drink but they were forced to take out the caffeine.
