Pretty good boost of energy, I take it before playing sport. Using two scoops can make the flavor a little overpowering though, still great.

ON Amino Energy is a great tasting drink to start the day with. I see it as a healthier alternative to having a V. I've had Orange flavour and Blue Raspberry, both are super sweet and yum
