'''Blue Charge''' is the [[brand]] name of an [[energy drink]], produced in the [[UK]] by [[Asda]] as an alternative to such products as [[Red Bull]] and [[Powerade]]. |
|||
==Product== |
|||
Marketed as an [[energy drink]] to combat mental and physical [[fatigue (physical)|fatigue]], it contains, per 250 ml (8.3 [[Fluid ounce|U.S. fl. oz.]]) serving, about 27 g of [[sugar]] ([[glucose]], [[sucrose]]), 1000 mg of [[taurine]], 600 mg of [[glucuronolactone]], B-complex [[vitamin]]s and 80 mg of [[caffeine]]. The caffeine in one serving is less than that found in an average cup of [[coffee]] (typically 100 mg/250-ml cup) or twice as much as found in a can of [[Coca Cola|Coke]] (40 mg/330-ml can) -around 80 mg per can. A diet version has been available since the beginning of 2003. Diet Blue Charge is sweetened with [[aspartame]], as opposed to [[sucrose]] and [[glucose]], as found in original Blue Charge. |
|||
The drink is described as tasting of 'fruit flavours' and an alternative cranberry flavour is available. It is commonly used by the [[United Kingdom|British]] youth and [[student]] culture as mixer in alcoholic drinks, such as with [[vodka]]. |
|||
===Ingredients=== |
|||
The ingredients in Blue Charge, similar to those used in Red Bull, are:[[Carbonated Water]], [[sucrose]], [[glucose]], [[sodium citrate]], [[taurine]], [[glucuronolactone]], [[caffeine]], [[inositol]], ([[niacinamide]], [[calciumpantothenate]], [[pyridoxine HCL]], [[Vitamin B12]], [[Flavor#Flavorants|natural and artificial flavors]], and hiv, [[colors]]) |
