Thats a no for me dog
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love this product but I just couldn't. I am not sure if it was just the flavor I have but it had a weird after taste that I just cpuld not get past.

Will use again
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the takes of this powder most have a horrible aftertaste, with the ingredients it doesn’t give that. I love that it gives you a boost of energy without the shakes.

My Take: Pineapple Amino Energy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay this stuff is amazing. The Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy in pineapple flavor has become my go-to plus they added nootropics so you get that clean energy and focus boost without any jitters. I use it before workouts, but it’s also perfect if you’re not a coffee drinker. It gives the same kick, just smoother and without the crash. Also it gives great focus during the day, as a corporate girly this is a requirement. The pineapple flavor is super refreshing. It’s tropical, not too sweet and no weird aftertaste. Bonus: my husband tried it once and now he’s totally hooked. If you want something that wakes you up, keeps you focused, and actually tastes good then this one’s a winner.

Best pre gym drink
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a game changer in my gym routine! The pineapple flavor is not overbearing at all and tastes super refreshing. It has a smooth texture when mixed thats not grainy at all. It gives me the perfect boost of energy without feeling too over caffienated. I didnt experience any crash!

Amazing electrolyte powder
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this stuff! It's by far the best tasting, most noticeably hydrating and energy boosting electrolyte powder I've tried. The pineapple flavor is really delicious! I love that it has added caffeine to give me a boost.

Amazing taste
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This skip powder has amazing ingredients such as electrolytes and amino acids. I also like that it has caffeine which allows me to skip my morning coffee. It mixes well. It tastes amazing- like juice and is very refreshing. It’s not too sweet, just right. I also use it as a pre workout. This helps me to stay hydrated

No jitters
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product took me by surprise. I loved using this amino energy powder when I felt tired towards the end of my day. It tasted like juice to me which I loved and it didn’t make me feel the jitters like and energy drink would. It comes with a lot of product so I can see this lasting me for a long time. I will continue to use this on days where I need more energy for the day. The advertising on the packaging lives up to what the product actually does for you 10/10.

Tastes good!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tastes like a light pineapple flavor and is very enjoyable! The caffeine will be helpful for a boost and the hydration is great for getting in water

Tasty Steady Energy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not too sweet and not too sour and has a good pineapple flavor, but it is a little salty. Energy stayed good and steady, no jitters. No beta alanine tingles.

Good enough
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging was easy to use. I didn’t love the taste as I felt like it was super sweet. I definitely noticed the caffeine after drinking it. I can’t say I noticed any difference as far as the other health claims.

Overall a decent tasting and effective product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall a decent product. The taste is pretty good but somewhat artificial tasting. I wouldn’t say I noticed a difference in focus. Maybe a bit in energy. The ingredients are also decent!

Packs a pineapple punch!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for testing purposes. My first thought was that they should have made the packaging smaller. The container was less than half full. Maybe due to setting but who knows. When I mixed it up I was skeptical of the bright yellow color, but the taste was great. The pineapple really came through.

Nasty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is some awful stuff. The packaging is great , but the taste is very strong i would not react his product at all to no one . I think it's the pineapple taste.

Thanks for trying Amino Energy! We recommend trying other flavors or using additional water to dilute the flavor!

The perfect addition to my summer workouts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honesty, this is my new go to before a workout or long day. It provides the perfect boost of energy, and supports my muscles, brain, and mental clarity. Additionally, as it contains electrolytes, it’s great for people who spends a lot of time in the sun. It’s also supper refreshing, and a great alternative to something like a traditional pina colada summer drink. Overall, I highly recommend and would repurchase on my own!

Tastes great and gives your workout that extra boo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is delicious fuel for your workouts! The pineapple taste does not come across as artificial or synthetic. It’s like drinking pineapple juice without the sore tongue. A suggested serving is two of these tiny scoops, so you can tailor the amount of caffeine you’re getting when you mix it. Tastes great and gives your workout that extra boost!

Good taste no jittery feeling
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked this product, I am a huge fan of pineapple and the taste was fairly good, you can tell it is a nutritional drink but not nearly as chalky as some others I’ve had in the past. It did give me an energy boost and in a good way it didn’t make me jittery or anxious like energy drinks or products that are basically pure sugar and chemicals. The package could be smaller it is a very small scoop and the months supply would fit into something roughly 30% of the size so it looks very empty when you open it. It seems like it would be a good value for the money I would recommend mixing it into a smoothie for the best flavor.
