    Prolly contains alcohol because the teens added it after opening.
    It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

    There are a few brands of energy drinks with a high alcohol content (6-8%), but I've never seen them stocked in Utah stores. Most of them are pretty citrusy.

    It seems like a great drink to me, a little caffeine to pump you up for an extreme downhill ride, and a little liquid courage mixed in to help you get down that first scary hill.

    Now, I am not seeing alcohol anywhere but I am sure if you wanted to this would probably taste awesome if you wanted to use it as a mixer...I wouldnt know since I dont drink
    ...and if I drank it right now I would not be sleeping tonight so maybe tomorrow

    Thing is like 6% alcohol, and you'd have to buy it in Utah in the state liquor store.

    Evingston is only a short hop up the freeway away...

    Never seen one for sale in a grocery store Utah. My bet is that no one else has, either.

    Not all energy drinks have alcohol in them. The ones with boos are like flavored beer and there sold with the rest of the alcohol. Budweiser even makes energy beer. You can get it on base also you don't have to go all the way to Wyo.

    These companies that market alcoholic energy drinks have ingeniously embraced a dichotomy to attract an often ignored market, that being people who feel guilty when doing healthy things.

    By the way, Tilt markets an 8% drink, look for the green and silver can. Just be careful not to spill it because I think the other 92% is green food coloring. Enjoy a palpatatious and citrusy buzz today!

    Remember kids, don't try this at home. Try it at someone else's home.
