Title: Rock Start????
Post by BarbaraD on Oct 16^th, 2006, 10:57am

In another thread someone mentioned Rock Start, a no carb energy drink. Never heard of it, but like the no carb part.

Is it comparable to Red Bull???

I think the one you are thinking of is called Rock Star.
If you drink it, you will be cool.

I know it has caffeine, you'd have to check to see if it has taurine too. Its the kind of drink that comes in 16 ounce cans rather than the small cans like Red Bull.

Party on!!

Barbara, Here is a link to some Rock Star and Rock Star Juiced info. I'm not sure about the difference between the two, but they're in the energy drink catagory.

50% more caffeine than what? Are you comparing 8oz cans to 16oz cans?

Red Bull 8.3oz - 1000mg taurine, 80 mg caffeine

Rockstar Energy Drink 16oz - 1894mg taurine, 160mg caffeine

Rockstar Zero Carb 16oz - 1000mg taurine, 120mg caffeine

Biker,
Rock Star no carb had 120 mg caffeine per 8 oz serving, so a 16 oz can has 240mg and a 24 oz can has ...well you do the math...it also has 1000 mg of taurine per serving.
kathy
and it says it has 50% more caffiene right on the lable-am assuming they mean "than it used to" probably because of the yerba matte.

Did you get that info from the can? If so, the wikipedia website should be corrected.

Here's an interesting webpage...

Check out Powershot, it has 10 times the caffeine/ounce of Red Bull or Rockstar.
