Peptime Island Lemon Lime Energy Shot Review

I am back with another Peptime Energy Shot to try, this time the Island Lemon Lime flavor. Peptime has not been my favorite energy shot, but I will say that I have been using shots more and more. I just drink them on the go. Sure you have a brief moment of pain from the less than stellar flavor, but then it's in your system doing it's work to wake you up and get you going. Peptime as a brand is about average so far and I am interested to see how the lemon lime version goes. Luckily this is Island Lemon Lime, because we all know that the islands produce the best tasting fruit flavors. HAHAHA!

Usually the lemon lime versions of the shots are the worst because they are too tart. But for Peptime it is the best of the lot. I would still put it a notch below On Go and 6 Hour, but this is a decent energy shot that you can consume without much pain. The flavor starts with a quick blast of lime tartness. Then your brain kicks on and the flavor starts to spread and before you know it bitterness has washed across your tongue. It's not unbearable, but is definitely present. After that a little flat lemonade flavor hits your tongue. It's pretty marginal as far as taste goes, but that still gives Peptime Island Lemon Lime enough to beat out several other brands of energy shots.

Peptime has been solid on the energy rush. It's not an elite shot in terms of a boost, but it does get the job done. I found Lemon Lime to fit the same mold as the other Peptimes. Decent energy for about 4 hours that doesn't kick in quite as fast as other shots, but nothing out of this world. Peptime does merge a good lemon lime flavor with decent energy though and that is enough for some. The ingredients are: caffeine (200 mg), B Vitamins, taurine, glucuronolactone, caffeine, glycerine, malic acid, citric acid, and EDTA. Would I drink Peptime Island Lemon Lime again… definitely, but it's not going to be the first shot I reach for when I need some extreme energy in a small bottle.
