Love Energy Potion

 

Ever since first seeing what Harcos Labs had to offer with its Mana Energy Potion (which I will also be reviewing in the near future, as well as other Harcos products [including this one], thanks to the generous folks over at Chemical Evolution.) I have enjoyed seeing what they will come up with. This instance is no different. They have a Love Potion for those looking for some energy and romance for Valentine's Day or any other day. I did not test on the "romantic" feelings you are supposed to get from this, I only tested on the basis of "how much energy does it give me". Take a look and see how it performed.

Packaging: Love Energy Potion comes in a small rounded bottle that looks sort of like something you would find in a video game where you get potion power-ups and the like. The bottle is clear with a shrink label on it. The design is a heart with a scroll on top of it overlaying a bunch of arrows lines up behind it in a sort of green color on top, and red below the heart. On the scroll is the name of the drink, Love Energy Potion, in all caps. On the back side of the bottle are the supplemental facts and the barcode and contact information for Harcos Labs.

Taste: This little shot of pink liquid is a great strawberry flavor. It is sweet, but not too sweet. It is sweetened with organic evaporated cane sugar, so it is sweet without being too syrupy. It tastes fruity, and actually took me a minute to place the flavor as being strawberry, but it also reminded me of something like a strawberry pop-tart. There is only 1.69 oz of the beverage, so you do not get to taste it very long, which is kind of a bummer since it tastes so good.

Energy: I got a good amount of energy from this. It is a tiny beverage, but it has 90 mg of caffeine in it, which is plenty to give you a decent jolt of energy to get you going. The energy/love potion blend does not tell how much of each ingredient is in it, but it also contains the usual energy drink ingredients of Taurine and Glucuronolactone, plus an array of other ingredients to make you feel romantic, or something like that. I was able to keep going for 4 hours or so on this, so the energy provided is good.

Overall Impression: This is a great little shot for Valentine's Day, or any day really. It is themed towards love, and is pink. I am not sure how many guys are going to be drinking it, but I do not think the pink-ness of the drink should deter them. It would also be a great gift for guys to get their girlfriend. The people over at Harcos Labs have done a great job with this drink, and I am going to give it a 10/10 for the geek factor and how well it works.
