Jetset Energy Original!
Tonight I finally decided to try Jetset energy original. Jetset is a company who makes an original typical energy drink as well as a line of energy mixers. It is rare that a company is open to mixing with alcohol when so many others try so hard to downplay the ED alcohol combo that is so big. I’ll be trying the mixers(like club soda, tonic water ect later) but for now I’m trying the original sans alcohol.
Packaging: Jetset original comes in a 10.5 oz can. The can is a dark red with a background of circles like ripples in water in and ever expanding circle. The name Jetset is very prominent on the front and there is a ring of clocks circling the top for the can with names cities under them. These are cities associated with great party scenes. On the back is an silhouette of a DJ spinning some records. I think the can gets the whole party vibe out there very well. You know this is a party drink. The ingredients and amounts are also listed on the back. I will give them a B for packaging. It’s a nice can that gets its message across well.
Slogans: Only logo I really see is “Mile high energy” which is only so so and does not make me think party very much. I think they could use a better slogan. I give them a C+ for slogan.
Taste ect: I open the can and get the Red Bull scent right away. Pouring the drink into a glass it is the typical golden brown. This is another Red Bull clone all the way. It’s a good one though and has a nice berry taste, medium carbonation and a real clean finish. No gumminess at the finish. You could easily replace RB with this in a mixed drink or just drank from the can and no one would really notice much. I’ll give it a B- for taste since it is not a bad drink if you like RB.
Kick/Ingredients: Well after drinking this I did wish I was at a club or party. I got a nice boost from it. The usual ingredients of 120 mg caffeine,1000 mg of Taurine,Inositol, Guarana, B vitamins and Glucuronolactone. Nothing unusual but a good typical mix. I god a good initial rush and maintained a good boost for several hours. I will give it a B- for kick. Not a huge boost but a nice medium one. You could consume a few of these with out overdoing it during a long night of party hopping.
Web presence: They have a really nice site at Drinkjetset at least as far as design goes. It’s a well designed flash site and offers you nutrition facts for each of their drinks as well as some party drink recipes. There is also contact info as well as and about us section. Not a real deep site but I love the design. If you search Jetset energy on google you will find they have a myspace as well as lots of articles. I give it a B- for web presence.
Recap:
I like this company a lot and they make a great line of drinks. Grab a Jetset I say and let the party begin.
