\"Bloom<\/p>\n

Glacier Crush sounds like a Gatorade flavor.<\/p>\n

I assumed, with \u201cglacier\u201d in its name, that Bloom Glacier Crush Sparkling Energy Drink would probably be blue or white in color, but that name doesn\u2019t give me a hint as to what it\u2019s supposed to taste like. Thankfully, by law, there has to be an ingredient list, and within that lineup of ingredients that end with -ine, -ate, -ide, -ine, -vin, and -min, there was \u201cpatented lychee fruit extract.\u201d<\/p>\n

In my mind, I\u2019m like, \u201cawesome,\u201d a lychee-flavored energy drink, which there needs to be more of. Then I thought the white in the can\u2019s design must represent the lychee\u2019s flesh, and the liquid would come in a pleasant, opaque white color. However, it turned out to be yellow, like pee-in-the-glacier-snow-yellow. Definitely not lychee-colored.<\/p>\n

\"Bloom<\/p>\n

Confusing to my eyes? Yes. But this energy drink is also confusing to my taste buds because, while there\u2019s lychee extract, the beverage\u2019s flavor reminds me of blue raspberry. A delicious blue raspberry, mind you, but still not lychee. But I imagine if Bloom ever decides to create a proper lychee-tasting energy drink, it would be pretty good, because the two drinks I\u2019ve had from the brand<\/a>, including this one, have been delightful.<\/p>\n

Not only does the drink have 180 milligrams of caffeine from green coffee extract, but it also has galactomannan prebiotic fiber, which sounds like something from alien plants. However, that alien-sounding nutrient provides only one gram of fiber. Come on! Instagram tells me I need more fiber! Please give it to me!<\/p>\n

Much like I\u2019m amazed at how great Monster Ultra flavors taste despite having zero sugar, I\u2019m equally surprised at how great these Bloom Energy flavors are, even though they are also sugar-free and have apple cider vinegar mixed into them. Poppi needs to do whatever Bloom is doing to hide the apple cider vinegar in them.<\/p>\n
