You know the one. That slim silver-and-blue can, ice-cold, sweet-tart and lightly fizzy, with a kick that gets you over the line. Cracking the seal at 11pm before the night really starts, or pouring it over vodka so the evening keeps moving. It's the energy drink everyone else copied. One 250ml can, 80mg of caffeine, and you're sorted.
Sweet first, then a tart citrus snap that stops it being sickly. There's that one-of-a-kind Red Bull flavour underneath, sort of candied and tangy, a little like fizzy sweets you'd half-recognise but can't name. The bubbles are gentle, not aggressive cola fizz. It finishes clean and bright, which is exactly why it plays so well with spirits.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Red Bull is Austrian, made by the company an Austrian entrepreneur built after tasting a Thai tonic that locals swore by for staying sharp. He tweaked the recipe, carbonated it, wrapped it in that skinny silver can, and launched it in 1987. From a single Austrian product it became the energy drink that defined the whole category. Still made to that same formula: water, sugar, taurine, caffeine and B-vitamins.
