www.energyfiend.com/2006/09/an-energy-drink-called-cocaineAn Energy Drink Called Cocaine September 18th, 2006 Redux Beverages have created a new energy drink and called it “cocaine”. Seriously. I suppose if they want a lot of PR - this is the way to get it - but naming a drink after an illegal drug? “When a person sees the name of the drink, some psychological effect happens and the person is already experiencing the energy buzz before they even open the can,” speculates Cocaine inventor Jamey Kirby. (source) The makers of the drink claim that it is 350% stronger than Red Bull. The drink comes with this warning: *Warning - this beverage should be consumed by responsible adults. Failure to adhere to this warning may result in excess excitement, stamina, fun and possible feeling of euphoria. From my calculations, Cocaine appears to have about 280 mg of caffeine per 8.4 oz (250ml) can. That’s a lot - and puts it right up there with Wired X294 (compare caffeine in Cocaine or check out the caffeine database). Cocaine is a helluva an energy drink !!!!
