I'm seeing influencers advertise these everywhere. Are these actually good?

    I don't get the appeal. It tastes like energy drink flavour.

    With so many funny and interesting flavours monster and most other energy drinks have, choosing the basic energy flavour is just bland.

    If you enjoy what's essentially lightly carbonated and highly caffienated sugar water, then they're pretty good.

    If you want heart palpitations.

    Compared to the amount of coffee a lot of people drink, these aren’t that bad. There’s no sugar at least.

    A standard run of the mill large coffee has more caffeine than one of these, and people guzzle those down.

    White Monster (pictured) tastes like... orange pop that's less sweet, much more citrus and has something else going on akin to saltiness at the same time; maybe it's an umami-flavour. It is genuinely delicious. I have now tried the rest of the Monster line-up and despised them, they are all fit for the pit. I haven't tried any other energy drink.
