Energy Drinks

Celsius

“[Celsius] makes me feel so much more energized, but I can tell that when I don’t have it I have some withdrawal [symptoms]. I get so out of it and droopy and tired.”

-Senior Logan Koester

Monster

“I feel more energized in the morning [when I drink Monster] but I wouldn’t say they have any other effects. I get shaky, but I don’t crash.”

-Sophmore Andrew Estes

“[I drink Rockstar] mainly because there’s a decent amount of caffeine, and it gets me going in the morning.”

-Freshman Waylon Binkley

“I like the [Alani] flavor, but I try not to drink too much because it can have some really, really bad heart effects. I feel like I get a little shaky sometimes when I drink them, but [other than that] I don’t notice that much of a difference.”

-Sophmore Amanda Makalous
