I personally prefer somewhere between 50 to 100mg of caffeine per serving for energy drinks, so Green V Energy has just the right amount of caffeine in my opinion. Any more than about 100mg in a single-serve can sometimes leave me jittery or unable to think straight. Perfect alternative to drinks: The spoonable tasty nutritional boost.

A large caramel-flavoured blended coffee drink, for example, can come in at 450 calories – that’s three times more than a can of cola.Although there’s not much to choose between this category and the last category, ice-cream milkshakes come out as worst in our list thanks to the combination of sugar and fat. Freak shakes can come in at over 1,000 calories – more than half of what you need for an entire day Add the content of 1 sachet (87 g) to 240 ml whole milk.

It’s not exactly anything new, characteristic of having a lot of B group vitamins, but it’s definitely not the worst flavour on the planet.

If you think the sugar content in V Energy Drink is a bit high, there’s always the sugar-free version of V Energy, albeit with artificial sweeteners. Don’t be deceived by claims such as “high juice”– these can still contain a lot of sugar. No-added sugar versions would be a better choice - and they should also cost you less than sugar-sweetened versions now the levy on sugar sweetened drinks has been introduced.

I would personally recommend that you have no more than one can of Green/Original V Energy Drink per day, mostly due to its high sugar content. Just 1 bottle (200 ml) provides the minimum effective dose of energy from an oral nutritional supplement shown to improve patient outcomes.
