Energy drinks let you get your caffeine fix, but they inevitably tend to be high in sugar. Zero Sugar is a welcome feature! Also, since it contains vitamins B6 and 12, it's good for your eyes. Furthermore, this product uses natural caffeine extracted from guarana.

Tasting!

Now, let's go ahead and give it a try. As written on the packaging, let's LET'S YAY TODAY!

The color is the familiar golden hue typical of energy drinks. The moment it was opened, a fruity lychee aroma wafted out with the sound of carbonation popping. When you think of lychee, you usually picture white, so YAY being golden is something you wouldn't expect from its appearance.

When you actually drink it, the carbonation is light, making it drinkable even for people who aren't fond of carbonated drinks. The taste is lychee-flavored and very fruity. The carbonation accentuates the acidity of the lychee, making it smooth and easy to drink!

It might be difficult to get your hands on it in Japan, but if you have plans to visit Thailand soon, definitely check out the drink section when you're there and look for the energy drink, YAY! For more details on the energy drink, YAY, please check the official website.
