Suddenly we got an energy drink from Hong Kong. Saiga NAK has been reviewing various energy drinks from around the world in line with our globalization efforts. This time, I would like to introduce a product called " Lucozade Energy " from Fulcor Group! I know what you are going to say. " What is this? "I don't know! "I don' t know either! "At any rate, its existence is a mystery, so I will try to introduce it one by one, bit by bit!
What kind of drink is Lucozade Energy?
Lucozade Energy" is an energy drink that is overwhelmingly popular in the UK, especially the original flavor! Hong Kong and the UK have strong historical ties, so it makes sense that they sell British products.
Overseas energy drinks.... What on earth is in them...?
I think everyone is most concerned about the fact that a certain Kansai-ben jinshi might say, "I wonder if there are any dangerous substances in it. I don't know anything about it either! This time, I'm going to take the risk of drinking it!
What is the Fulcoa Group?
Fulcoa Group is the second largest soft drink manufacturer in New Zealand. It was acquired by Suntory in 2008 and became a Suntory brand.

"Lucozade Energy" actual drink review!
I'm going to start with the low calorie orange flavor. When I open it psshhhh, it smells citrusy with a hint of sweetness!
What is the taste...?
"Huh! "
"It's cleaner than I thought! "
I had an image that foreign energy drinks seemed to have a strong flavor, but I was surprised to find that it tasted just like a normal drink sold in Japan.
It tastes more like lemon than orange, which is sour, but the sweet smell neutralizes the sourness nicely. It is also highly carbonated, so I thought it was the perfect energy drink for when you want to refresh your palate! I can gobble this one up.
Next up is the orange flavor
I can't wait to see how this will change with the low calorie orange flavor.
Not as sweet as I thought it would be...?
The "Lucozade Energy" tastes like a familiar orange soda like Fanta Grapes.
It tasted like a fanta grape, a familiar orange soda, but with a sweetness that was not overpowering and a gentle feel that made it easy to drink without any resistance. The orange flavor was stronger than that of the low-calorie orange, both in smell and taste!
The last flavor is the original flavor that I am most interested in!
I've reviewed "low-calorie orange" and "orange" and every flavor I could imagine so far, but the beverage is a real mystery to me because I don' t know the original of the original flavor. What does it taste like?
What the heck? "
" Kore Kore lee!!!! "
I've been waiting for something like this. I've never had a flavor like this before, and I'm so excited about it. The smell is really hard to describe, it smells like a mixture of wood and citrus. To put it worse, it smells like " bathroom detergent! What the heck is this?
I think it tastes similar to low-calorie orange though...? (no more)
The original flavor, which is very popular, is certainly No. 1 overall in my opinion in many ways, including "impact in the mouth," "strength of flavor habit," and "deep emotional impact of flavor!
If you go to Hong Kong, you can find "Lucozade Energy"!
The sweetness of the two is comparable: Orange>>Low Calorie>>Original. The Original contains sugar, but it doesn't taste sweet, which makes me feel like I'm getting something out of it without feeling guilty.
The original flavor, which is unfamiliar to many people, allows you to experience the differences in taste cultures overseas, so we encourage those who are looking for stimulation to try it.
Saiga NAK will continue to review energy drinks from other countries in the future, so please stay tuned!
