    I love this

    I love drinking this in the morning in replace of my morning coffee. Doesn't give me the jitters or prickly skin like some do. Watermelon and Blueberry Lemonade are great. Strawberry tastes very artificial

    I would buy again

    Accidentally ordered watermelon but was surprised on how much I liked the flavor. My only hope is you would add more flavors from the 30 serving amino energy to the 65 servings amino energy.

    This Stuff is Great

    I don't use this as a workout tool but as a replacement for coffee. Add it to a bit of water and it hydrates and gives energy. Take is great too!

    Amazing product

    I started taking this because I had to get through back-to-back cross country and swim practices several days a week. The energy boost was amazing and surprised me when I got through 5 miles of hills without a problem. (I use 2 scoops in 10 ounces about 30 minutes before an activity).

    Good stuff

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you're wanting to remove caffeine from your diet this is a great caffeine alternative. Tastes good, helps with muscle recovery, and great energy.

    Awesome

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved this drink. This flavor is refreshing! Also a great value for the number of servings you get. This is all I drink. I have hair loss due to Lupus, and I believe some of my hair growing back. I will definitely keep purchasing.

    Great Taste, Sustainable Energy

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not a fan of these kinds of supplements; usually they taste horrible. I have to say, I was very skeptical of the watermelon flavor, but while it is incredibly sweet, it tastes much like a watermelon Jolly Rancher, which is not a bad thing. I got a little boost from drinking Optimum Nutrition Essential Amino Energy Watermelon, and I didn't crash afterwards. All good things. This isn't a product I'd buy or consume regularly, but when I'm in the height of training, I would definitely consider this product over others.

    Good, Clean Energy

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good tasting and good value. Good energy that doesn't make you feel insane like some other similar supplements. 10/10 would recommend to any athlete or anyone looking for that extra edge. Sometimes I will take a 1/4 serving instead of morning coffee.

    Next level stuff

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is amazingly delicious and great combo of BCAA's and caffeine. I normally drink it as an afternoon drink since I take a preworkout before working out and protein after. So this is my recovery drink that helps satisfy any soda or sweet craving i might get during the day. Highly recommended!

    Unbelievable!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This amazing product worked as advertised. I would consume 2-3 scoops as prescribed about 30 minutes prior to my workout and I could see the results. This product made the difference in reaching my goals and providing the extra energy.
