CAFFEINE!

In the last couple of years energy drinks have become overwhelmingly popular. With the product growth, the average age of caffeine consumption has gone down drastically. It is not uncommon to see young children running around with a Red Bull or a Rockstar energy drink.



Products like Red Bull, while still leading the market in terms of sales, are not even in the top 50 most caffeinated beverages.

So if you think Red Bull gives you a caffeine buzz, try out some of these bad boys!
