5.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Delicious and Seriously Effective!

M. · July 14, 2025

My husband has been a fan of Gorilla Mind’s protein powder for a while, so we decided to give their energy drinks a try — and I’m so glad we did! I wasn’t expecting much, but Orange Ice Dream completely blew me away. It’s got this smooth, nostalgic orange creamsicle vibe without being overly sweet or artificial, and you’d never guess it has zero sugar. The flavor is clean, the finish is refreshing, and it doesn’t have that weird aftertaste so many energy drinks leave behind.What impressed me even more is how well it performs. The energy boost is solid but super clean — no jitters or crash. You can tell there’s more going on than just caffeine. I genuinely felt sharper and more focused, which makes a big difference during busy days. The can is the perfect size too — enough to power you through your morning or afternoon without feeling like too much.Honestly, even I would drink these — and I’m not usually a fan of energy drinks. Gorilla Mind really nailed it with this one. Worth every penny!

I’d never had an energy drink before and at 60 plus I wasn’t interested. While house and Theo ( my grandPUP) sitting for my daughter and son in law , I noticed GMind in the fridge. Looking at it for a few days I read the ingredients and decided to give it a try. I was hooked after first can. No jitters, little sodium, enhanced focus, great taste and more energy. I didn’t get the after lunch slump. Now, I order my own. The Bluerasberry is my go to.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delicious Energy That Lasts All Day — Black Cherry is the Best!

B. · September 13, 2025

This is one of the best-tasting energy drinks on the market. I’ve tried several flavors and enjoyed most of them, but Black Cherry is my favorite. It has a strong, pleasant flavor that isn’t overly sweet or harsh — enjoyable without feeling like candy.In terms of performance, this drink really helps me power through the day. Without it, I usually start feeling tired around noon, but with it, my energy lasts until about 6 p.m. The best part is there’s no jittery feeling and no hard crash afterward.My only minor complaint is that in every case, 1–3 cans arrive with dents or bulges at the top or bottom. None have leaked so far, but it does make those cans harder to drink from.Overall, the flavor, smooth energy, and lasting boost make this drink a standout. Despite the occasional packaging issue, I’d still highly recommend it.

I’ve worked my way through most of the Gorilla Mind energy drink lineup, and they’ve all been solid across the board. They give a clean boost of focus and alertness without the jittery spike, and best of all, no crash afterward.Flavor-wise, there’s a good variety depending on what you’re in the mood for, but Citrus Rain has been my favorite so far. To me it tastes like a mix between Sprite and Mountain Dew — crisp, a little sweet, and really easy to drink.Overall, Gorilla Mind has become one of my go-to choices when I want an energy drink that actually delivers.

Going to break this up a bit. Tl:dr, tastes great, works well, price is fine, packaging sucks a bit.Taste:So far I've tried Black Cherry Vanilla and Kiwi. Both are really tasty, but I have a preference for Black Cherry Vanilla. These don't taste like low calorie energy drinks, and not much like energy drinks at all. You don't get that annoying, acidic and metallic taste that many energy drinks have. Instead it's smooth, tastes as advertised, and has no weird aftertaste. If there was a decaf I would drink it for the taste alone.Efficacy:Different people react differently to supplements. With that out of the way, the dosages are well within the "effective" range and I haven't found a nootropic on the market with these dosages combined. Derek has a video nearly an hour and a half long on YouTube breaking down the active ingredients, what they do, and studies that back their efficacy.Personally and anecdotally, wowza. The caffeine level is akin to a normal energy drink so you get the initial hit, but no jitters. Then the nootropics kick in (then take 30 min to an hour on average for most people). Focus is insane, word recall is noticable, and mood is enhanced. I got more used to it after a while, but the first day I cleaned most of my house because I was so hyped. At this point, I can't imagine a day without one. I know for the sake of my wallet I should slow down, but I love how both energizing and calming the drink is at the same time.Cost:It's not the cheapest. That said, it is way cheaper than Starbucks or any coffee shop. I often go to my local coffee shop to get work done, but that ends up costing me like $6-7 (with tip) per day for an iced coffee or iced black eye. I would sometimes pop by the corner store to get a Monster for the weekend or something. That was $3, which is cheaper than redbull. If you do the math, as of now Gorilla Mind energy comes out to around $3 a can, and is way higher quality then redbull. So, I'm saving money if I don't go to the coffee shop and breaking even with Monster.Packaging:There are plenty of pictures of cans being damaged and it's true. A few of mine arrived damage, and the quality of the materials on the cans isn't the best. That said, it's so good that I'm not deducting a star.Really a game changer, I recommend giving it a go. If you are unsure, watch Derek's video on YouTube.
