Tastes amazing!
I don’t feel the grogginess of having a regular energy drink like a red bull or monster but still get the same if not more energy! The flavor is also perfect!

Quick energy boost
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a good option for when I am in a rush and need a quick energy boost! It dissolves fairly well and quickly when added to water however I think the strawberry flavor tastes a little too artificial and sweet.

Tasty and effective hydration powder
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This optimum nutrition hydration powder is very tasty. It gives a sweet taste to my water and I like that it is not overwhelming. I followed the directions on the container. The packing is small and easy to carry. There are no side effects and the texture does not bother me. I find it easy to mix and dissolve in water.

Love the tastes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really enjoying Amino Energy, and I absolutely love the taste of it. The flavor is refreshing, smooth, and never too sweet, which makes it easy to drink every day. I really appreciate that it doesn’t irritate my stomach at all, even when I take it early in the morning. It gives me a clean, steady boost that keeps me focused, alert, and clear-headed without causing jitters or crashes. Whether I’m working, filming content, running errands, or keeping up with my kids, it genuinely helps me stay energized. Overall, Amino Energy has become one of my favorite daily products because it tastes great, feels gentle, and consistently supports my focus. I recommend it to anyone needing clean, reliable energy.

Great taste!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Has a great strawberry taste, but didn’t work that well for me. Great packaging and good quantity of product. Wasn’t my favorite, but I’d say it’s worth a try!

A little goes a long way and gives a nice little b
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is great! I like using it mid day when I get an energy slump. I find that it’s a tasty and nice way to get a boost without having to worry about feeling too anxious or like I can’t go to sleep that night. I also don’t experience a crash afterward which is great. Plus a little goes a long way, I usually use half a scoop to dilute the flavor and it does what it needs to do. It’s also great to have extra vitamins like Vitamin D and Magnesium to give some extra side benefits! For the price and benefits I’d recommend.

Sweet but decent flavor, Contains Sucralose
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not a big caffeine person, but my husband likes it for workouts so I was hoping he might appreciate this. He hasn’t been in a workout routine lately so it hasn’t gotten much use. I did mix one half-serving batch for myself. It is very sweet at the 5-6oz water per scoop ratio, aside from the sweetness the flavor is good and dissolves nicely . Looking through the ingredients it does not contain aspartame which is good, however it does include Sucralose which my body doesn’t handle well. I wish it used natural sweeteners, though I recognize those are not as widely accepted by consumer bases. I did like the length of the scoop handle, it is longer than the bottle is wide, so it can be easily retrieved as it doesn’t sink fully into the product.

Clean energy, great flavor, and real hydration in
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Optimum Nutrition AMIN.O. ENERGY Hydration + Focus in Strawberry Burst for a few weeks, and it’s become my go-to pre-workout and mid-day pick-me-up. The ingredients are solid—amino acids, electrolytes, and a moderate caffeine blend that gives clean energy without jitters or a crash. It definitely helps improve focus and endurance during workouts or long days. The taste is refreshing and not overly sweet, with a nice strawberry flavor that mixes easily with water and doesn’t leave residue. The value is great too since a single tub lasts quite a while if you use the recommended servings. The packaging is sturdy and easy to scoop from, with a clear label that lists everything transparently. Overall, it’s a reliable, great-tasting energy and hydration boost.

We love this amino. It tastes soo good. Watermelon is our favorite but when we can't get it we get strawberry. Im not a water drinker and this helps me drink water. I do feel good after drinking it.

Effective for energy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been getting into working more. Have started to use this on busy mornings. The flavor is not overly sweet, and gives me an energy boost without the jittery feeling b/c of the natural caffeine. It also seems to supports muscle recovery with the amino acids and electrolytes. I’ve noticed a difference in my energy and endurance during workouts.
