Rip It definitely makes my favorite $1 energy drinks. They have a huge variety of flavors, and are all pretty good for only costing $1 each. Rip It also has sugar-free versions of several of their flavors, and if I remember correctly Citrus X was one of the first that they came out with. This drink can be found in every Dollar Tree and Family Dollar that I've ever been to, and since Rip It varieties are basically scattered, and seem to come and go at my local stores as the cans sell, this drink could be available anywhere.

Can/Design:

Rip It's designs are already silver-based with individual variants in certain small aspects of the design and color scheme. Their sugar-free drinks contain even more silver, but are a good representation of Rip It's design in sugar-free form. Citrus X doesn't pull it off as well as Rip It's other sugar-free flavors do, but the overall design looks fine.

The can says "sugar free" in a small oval on one side of the can, and it also says "Wild Ride" on the back, as all Rip It drinks do for some reason. The tab on top of the can is also yellow, and the can definitely looks as citrus-y as it can for its design.

Taste:

Not only are Rip It drinks cheap, but they also taste good. For a zero-calorie, sugar-free energy drink, this drink is really drinkable. It tastes like Citrus X, but is almost a light, crisp, slightly-artificial tasting version. This drink tastes as "normal" as other sugar-free energy drinks that have more exciting packaging.

Energy:

Per 16. oz. can, this drink contains 200 mg. of Caffeine, 2000 mg. of Taurine, 20 mg. of Inositol, and 20 mg. of Guarana Seed Extract.

Rip It drinks never fall short in energy either. This drink's energy blend is a good indication of the energy that it provides, and it's pretty good. I've never found Rip It drinks ineffective, and this drink provided the familar four-hour Rip It lift in energy that all of their other drinks do. Despite its lack of sugar, this drink works well, and I definitely think that anyone trying this would feel a lift in energy from it.

This drink is impressive for being sugar-free and containing zero calories. It also has zero carbs, and 95 grams of sodium. If you're looking for a new, inexpensive, and sugar-free energy drink, this drink is definitely worth a try.
