It\u2019s been on shelves for so long that I can type the following: The new Mtn Dew Energy Code Red is not your father\u2019s Mtn Dew Code Red. <\/p>\n<p>I feel like it was just yesterday when my mind was blown seeing another Dew flavor next to the original. At the time, the way the original green Mountain Dew and Code Red looked on the shelf together made it seem like Mtn Dew was celebrating Christmas.<\/p>\n<p>Mtn Dew Energy Code Red is the latest flavor in the Energy Drink Formerly Known As Mtn Dew Rise Line. It\u2019s also the flavor with the damn best looking can of the bunch. It features 180 milligrams of caffeine, vitamin C and zinc for immune support, has five percent juice, and zero grams of added sugar like all the Mtn Dew Energy flavors in less eye-catching cans.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mdenergyred2.jpeg?resize=500%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Mtn Dew Energy Code Red Cup\" title=\"mdenergyred2.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With the first sip, it\u2019s recognizable as the Dew with a rush of cherry flavor. But if you\u2019re hoping for a taste that\u2019s a carbon copy of the original Mtn Dew Code Red, thanks to the artificial sweeteners, you won\u2019t get that. I guess it\u2019s more like the Zero Sugar version. Although this isn\u2019t completely sugar free. There\u2019s a little bit from the five percent of white grape juice in it, which does a little to hide the sucralose, aspartame, and acesulfame potassium. As someone who is used to energy drinks with artificial sweeteners from Monster, some of which are hard to tell if they\u2019re sugar free, I don\u2019t mind that this doesn\u2019t have the same sugary bite as the original.<\/p>\n<p>Despite being one of my favorite Dew flavors, it\u2019s been a while since I\u2019ve had a Mtn Dew Code Red, so it was nice to revisit it in this energy drink form. Although its flavor is not unique in the Mtn Dew Universe, this might be my favorite in the Mtn Dew Energy line, slightly edging out Tropical Sunrise.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> More than one should pay on eBay<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 16 fl oz can<br \/>\n<strong>Purchased at:<\/strong> eBay<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 9 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (1 can) 25 calories, 0 grams of fat, 170 milligrams of sodium, 5 grams of carbohydrates, 4 grams of sugar (including 0 grams of added sugar), and 0 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It makes me feel old knowing that the original Mtn Dew Code Red is over 20 years old.
