Organic Clean Energy Drink by RUNA, Sampler Pack | Refreshing Tea Taste | 10 Calories | Powerful Natural Caffeine | Healthy Energy & Focus | No Crash or Jitters | 12 Oz (Pack of 6)

First must say the taste will definitely take some getting used to. It has a strong plain tea taste. The additional flavors such as mango are very subtle. The price is slightly more than your typical energy drinks when on sale at the store. However all things considered I find the trade offs worth it. I don’t get the crash after consuming and I like that it’s not loaded with artificial ingredients. If you go into knowing that this is a healthier alternative and put more weight on that compared to taste and price then the product is definitely for you.

I actually used to LOVE Runa, especially the Pineapple flavor - but this new formulation is totally disgusting and I can't even add flavors to it to make it better - it's just horrible. Wow - somebody made a POOR decision to reformulate these. I'd rather have some cane sugar than deal with this horrid taste. Moving on to another brand.

Tried this for the first time and absolutely loved it. Fantastic way to wake up in the morning, no crash or jitters, and not a bad taste. However What happened with the Price??I bought this product twice once for myself and once for one of my sisters because I enjoyed it so much. I was going to order another as a gift for my youngest sister but changed my mind When I saw that the price had doubled? Why? If it had raised a couple of dollars I could have seen myself still purchasing it but I can’t justify buying it at double. However outside of the new cost. I have no other complaints and consider this a really great product. If you can swing the cost I definitely recommend it. Unfortunately I personally won’t be purchasing it again unless the cost drops once more. Which is a shame because I really did like it. It was a great pick me up after a long day. when I needed a little extra boost.

I’ve been a fan of Runa drinks for about 8 years. I loved their older recipes and flavors back when their products were in glass bottles. The flavors like lemon lemongrass, guava, mint, and hibiscus berry. Sadly Runa changed their products. I still enjoy these newer versions, but they’re not nearly as good as the older versions.However, I will say these newer drinks still have the same guayusa taste as the older ones. But the fruity flavoring is a much different experience. These newer drinks are much lighter feeling, and any flavoring like orange, watermelon, etc is quite weak. You can still obviously taste the flavor but it’s not nearly as strong as their older recipes. The best way I can describe it is that it’s now airy...kind of like a watered down version.All around I can definitely see why people might not like these drinks. If you’re expecting a powerful punch or strong sensation, then this brand isn’t for you. I honestly enjoy all of these flavors. Some are weaker than others. For example, I thought the watermelon flavor had the lightest taste, whereas the orange had a tiny bit more taste. As mentioned earlier though, all of these flavors are light. Don’t be expecting a strong taste.On a random note, the price listing for this product seems to be constantly changing. I’ve seen this variety pack change from costing $20, to only $10, back to $20, then again to $10, etc.

I love the Berry and Blood Orange flavors. The best thing about these drinks are how quick and easy it is to get my caffeine kick. It’s a measured amount so you know what you’re in for, caffeine wise. I like to have one of these in place of a soda or other high calorie drink in the middle of the work day. They are refreshing, crisp and not sweet, which I like. I stopped drinking those other brands of energy drinks with a list of ingredients a mile long years ago, and I love that the list of ingredients in Runa is short and simple. Also, given that it’s summer, I sometimes just don’t want to brew coffee or tea and wait for it to cool to make it “iced”. That’s when Runa comes in for a quick, cold and tasty pick me up. I’ll keep reordering to keep a few of these on hand!

I really liked the two previous versions. Lightly sweetened and not at all sweetened. Gave me an option. I generally like the not at all sweetened and would have the lightly sweetened when I felt like some sugar (real sugar). Really, really miss have that option plus the new version does not taste good. Please return to the old versions with an option for sugar or not.

It’s ok. I don’t hate it, but the carbonation ruined the taste of the tea. Besides that the tea flavors are good. But only wished these weren’t carbonated. I would of finished a can in one serving.

I feel bad bashing a product but I can’t stay quiet:/ this was sooooo gross. I’ve been trying to replace Red Bull’s and this was not it. I wanted to vomit. Try zevia energy drinks. Those are soooo delicious I’m comparison. And I’m my eyes it’s better for you than Red Bull. Just a friendly review to show you the path I’ve already been down.
