Scrap scoop

Great product, but I’ll probably find something else now. They have to figure out this scoop thing… make the tube smaller? Anything… it’s extremely frustrating

Remove Red Dye 40

Grape is my favorite. I prefer it over coffee in the AM, however, Red Dye 40 needs to be removed. The cans don’t have it, neither should the powder. And like the other comments the smaller scoop is a pain.

AMAZING

Love this flavor!! Was unsure at first because I am not a big grape fan, but this flavor is now my favorite. And Amino Energy works great without the big crash. Just steady energy.

Great boost before morning workout!

This is one of my top 2 flavor favorites in the Amin.o energy drink line. It takes great, and I like to drink it in the morning to give me a boost before my workout.

GREAT Overall

The flavor is GREAT - if you like grape. It mixes quickly and thoroughly into a glass of water. The amino profile is good and, if you catch a sale price, the price isn't bad. It last for a while.

Easily dissolves and tasty

I have tried the competition and have found that what they offer does not completely dissolve and the taste is revolting, plus theirs usually doesn't include the full scope range of Amino acids, the caffeine is all natural so no hyper jitters as with a regular energy drink

Its the energy I need

This is my coffee. I don't like coffee so looked for natural energy booster. Well it doesn't disappoint. Juicy strawberry is my favorite. Grape is good. Peach lemonade taste like lemonade. Pineapple does not taste like Pineapple. I would recommend if your looking for a energy drink. Also I do not crash from this.

Will continue to use

I use this early in the morning, I look forward to the tasty Concord Grape flavor and boost of caffeine before my hour workout. I have used it for 2 months and I believe it has helped build muscle, reduce muscle fatigue and reduce muscle soreness.

My favorite energy go to.

I use this for a pick up in the morning. Before work outs or just for energy and mid day pick ups when I'm losing energy too. No jitters or anything.

Tastes good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried this Essential Amino Energy Concord Grape from Optimum Nutrition. The taste is really nice. I love the fact that it has only 5 calories and 0 grams sugars per serving. It does indeed give that much needed energy boost during pre-work out sessions. It does help with faster muscle recovery post work out. I am already looking to buy other flavors of this energy powder.

Grapealicious

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When it comes to these kinds of energy drinks I'm very particular about the flavor and taste. With that being said I'm very particular when it comes to grape. There are very few things that I like in a grape flavor and this would have to be one that I didn't like. If I would have received this item in a different flavor I probably would have liked it. It was very hard for me to get pass the flavor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the best pre workout that I have used and I really love the flavor of it and it's not Chuckie and it kicks in rather fast it'll last us a while
