There are so many energy drinks or shots available now - how do you choose?  Here is one important ingredient to take a good look at before purchasing your next energy in a bottle or can.

Amount of sugar
Try to look for ones containing no more than 15 g per serving.  Some energy drinks contain huge amounts sugar and calories, so the energy boost you get is actually your blood sugar spiking which will most likely cause a crash later on.

Dare to Compare the leading energy supplements, drinks or shots. 

Make sure to look at the energy supplements serving size when comparing - some cans or bottles contain as many as 3 servings and most people drink the whole thing at one time.  If there are 2 servings and you consume the entire container, you would need to double the ingredient amounts including sugar, calories and caffeine.

Choose either sugar-free energy supplements or look for products made with a small amount of natural sweeteners like organic cane juice.

I prefer the organically sweetened version.  It has a great flavor and no aftertaste.  I find the perfect time to take it is right after lunch.  It gives me enough energy boost to get through the afternoon when I sometimes get a little sleepy at my desk writing my next blog post!  It lasts long enough to get through my workout after work or for playing volleyball that night.
