C2O sweeter than expected
This product screams natural hydration with a burst of energy from espresso. In the 17.5 oz can, you’ll find only 140 calories, but 30 grams of carbs (22 grams of sugar); each can contains two servings. It is very sweet, but what’s sweet for me may be different for you. I don’t eat many sweets, so when I consume something like this, the burst of sweet always surprises me.
A deep, dark espresso flavor lingers long after consumption. If you don’t want coffee breath at work, I highly recommend you don’t drink this product at work. Right now I feel like a coffee-breathing dragon.
If you love coffee and need something sweet, and don’t have any qualms over coffee breath, go for it. While it’s a blend of coconut water, coconut sugar and espresso, I really don’t get any hints of coconut.
It’s a murky mixture with coffee granules floating around and boasts 199MG of caffeine per can. In a regular 8 oz cup of coffee, you’re looking at 90-95MG of caffeine, so the espresso bumps it up a bit. A 12 oz Coke gives you 34MG of caffeine, so this product has considerably more caffeine. If you live on caffeine, go for it. If you’re like me and limit your caffeine, you may want to skip purchasing this product or, at least, limit your intake in one sitting.
Will I buy this product again? No – too much sugar and too much caffeine for me. And quite frankly, I had a high school teacher who drank coffee all day. It certainly stuck in my head and became a life lesson of what not to do.
However, if you think you might like to try this product, you can get it on Amazon…12 pk for $20, so it’s a decent price. Here’s the Amazon link.
