\"Bang<\/p>\n

When Bang\u2019s Lime Pop Drop was dropped off at my door by UPS, I expected it to be a heavily caffeinated lemon-lime-flavored energy drink that would be reminiscent of such sodas as Sprite, 7Up, Starry, Mist Twst, or Sierra Mist.<\/p>\n

Because I live under a rock apparently made of new Monster Energy, breakfast cereal, and ice cream releases, I hadn\u2019t even heard of this drink before it ended up on my Welcome mat. But after tasting the sample Bang sent me, I quickly found it didn\u2019t taste at all like those lemon-lime sodas. Instead, the energy drink had a way better flavor.<\/p>\n

Much like other Bang Energy Drinks, a can of Lime Pop Drop has 300 milligrams of caffeine, has zero sugar, and zero calories. Plus, it has the usual \u201cperformance supplements,\u201d like Ultra COQ10 and essential aminos.<\/p>\n

\"Bang<\/p>\n

After cracking open the can, an alluring lime mixed with cotton candy aroma rose from it, hitting my nostrils as if I walked into a Bath & Body Works. As I took my first sip, I instantly wondered, \u201cWait. Is this the lime version of Bang\u2019s Any Means Orange<\/a>?\u201d That drink, which came out last year, was an orange-creamsicle-flavored delight, and this Lime Pop Drop tastes like a lime-creamsicle-flavored cousin. It was such a pleasant and delicious surprise that I had to physically restrain myself from chugging the entire can in one go. I don\u2019t know how my body would respond to consuming 300 milligrams of caffeine within a few moments.<\/p>\n

I also got strong key lime pie vibes, but imagine that key lime pie was drowning under several extra-generous dollops of whipped cream. But there\u2019s also a candy-like aspect to the lime that makes the citrus flavor sing. It definitely won\u2019t be confused with any lemon-lime soda.<\/p>\n

I enjoyed Lime Pop Drop every bit as much as Any Means Orange, which I gave a very high score, and I hope Bang keeps it around and never drops it.<\/p>\n
