Energy - Isotonic Drinks

Energy drinks are particularly high in carbohydrates. Their goal is to provide "fuel" to the consumer's muscular and nervous system. Isotonic drinks are especially rich in electrolytes. They offer the consumer chemical elements and water, which are removed during intense muscular exercise.

One could start with the basic versions of the three brands (Hell, Monster, Red Bull) available.

An energy drink is suitable during long hours of study or long hours of exercise. It offers the body an energy boost, but in no case can it replace proper nutrition and necessary rest.

An example is Winged Hussar, which consists of energy drink and smoked whiskey, in a ratio of 3:1. Another example is TVR, with energy drink, vodka and tequila, in a ratio of 8:1:1.

In the Irish Black Bull, dark beer and energy drink are mixed in a ratio of 15:1. In the Atomic Bomb, energy drink and sambuca “meet” each other in a ratio of 5:1.

During a break of a hard day at work, before a tough bike ride or before a football match with friends. Generally, energy drinks suit situations that require a quick energy boost. However, moderation is a key to their consumption.

Vodka and white tequila are the most common.
