DRIVE ME Review: Not My Idea of a Secret Flavor

Not My Idea of a Secret Flavor: DRIVE ME Falls Flat

summarizeEditor's Summary

I'm super disappointed with DRIVE ME's 'secret flavor' claim, which turned out to be just a rehash of their Citrus Smash flavor. The new design looks great, but the price point of 89.99 rubles is steep for a new product. I had a hard time finding it, and when I did, it was a bit of a challenge. The battery life is decent, but it's not worth the hype. I'm not impressed with DRIVE ME.

Not My Idea of a Secret Flavor: DRIVE ME Falls Flat

Hello!

I was super stoked to try DRIVE ME when I first heard about it, but what really got me excited was the promise of a secret flavor. I mean, who doesn't love a good mystery, right?

Unfortunately, my excitement was short-lived. I was expecting to find DRIVE ME at Magnta, but it wasn't there. And when I finally did find it, it was a bit of a challenge. The bottle cost me 89.99 rubles, which is a bit steep for a new product, especially one with a secret flavor that's already been released.

The new design of DRIVE ME looks great, and the bottle is no exception. It's got a mysterious vibe to it, but the flavor is anything but a secret. In fact, it's the same as the Citrus Smash flavor that was released earlier.

I took a closer look at the label, and the first thing I noticed was that it contains sugar and sweeteners. And then my eyes landed on the first line:

Contains sugar and sweeteners Beverage, Citrus Smash Wait a minute... Is this really a secret flavor that's already been released? It's like saying, 'You can't find Citrus Smash in stores, bummer.' Okay, fine. But that's not a reason to re-release it as a secret flavor.

The drink looks exactly the same as before. I didn't even notice the carbonation. I doubt there will be any significant differences.

When I opened the bottle, what's that smell? Citrus! Like freshly squeezed lemon juice!

And the taste is the same - citrusy. Like lemon. I don't feel like it's a vitamin C explosion, and the sweeteners are only noticeable if you really look for them.

I've been searching for Citrus Smash DRIVE ME everywhere, and even when I found it last time (thanks to my second taster), it was hard to come by. But if that was a limited edition, why re-release it as a secret flavor? That's like saying, 'This is something new.' I thought it would be like GENESIS. Mystery star (the flavor is similar to another energy drink, but at least it's new for GENESIS). Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend it for this move.

Is DRIVE ME's secret flavor really a secret?

Unfortunately, no. The flavor is just a rehash of their Citrus Smash flavor. I was expecting something new and exciting, but it's just more of the same.

Where can I find DRIVE ME in stores?

I had a hard time finding it, but I finally found it at Magnta. You might be able to find it at other stores, but it's not widely available yet.

Is DRIVE ME worth the price?

Honestly, no. The price point of 89.99 rubles is steep for a new product, especially when you consider that it's not a unique flavor. You might be able to find it on sale, but I wouldn't recommend paying full price.
