SuperJimtendo | 1,116 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) @Richardhead made me drink an energy drink tonight. I haven't had caffeine since January. And I don't fuck with energy drinks In general because of an incident a few years back. So not only am I gonna be bouncing off the walls causing mischief all night now. I'm already getting jittery, and headache. And maybe even talking too fast.2 hours left of the shift! So.... What is your go-to "gamer fuel"? For me Gatorade zero gets me through my longer days. Preferably the lemon - lime. It tastes just like regular yellow Gatorade but without the sugar and calories. It's fantastic.

ThePhleo | 2,184 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Coffee w/ Cream & Sugar Tea w/ Milk & Honey Seltzer w/ Citrus or Berries Ice Water Those are my go to drinks while gaming. Energy drinks are disgusting and should only be enjoyed in Vodka...and the only drink of choice should be Red Bull...maybe hold the Red Bull and just drink the vodka though.

behemos | 757 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Seltzer in the evenings. Coffee (with almond milk) in the mornings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaosu | 104 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I've drank flavored sparkling water before, but never once seltzer. Is it basically the same thing minus the flavor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it basically the same thing minus the flavor? It just doesn't have sugar. So it's just carbonated water. But you can get it in a variety of flavors.

DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 No specific gaming drink, I'm a big fan of straight ice water in the evenings. During the day I'm all about the Monster Ultra and Diet Mountain Dew. No, I'm not a dudebro and yes, I am ashamed that I drink these things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it basically the same thing minus the flavor? I wouldn’t call seltzer “flavorless” since the brand I drink is extremely bubbly and those bubbles give it some kind of taste. But, essentially yes. Seltzer is just magic bubble water. Just don’t drink fancy “sparkling mineral water” like Perrier. To me they taste like metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaosu | 104 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) On a near daily basis, I will have at least one these: Java Monster - Irish Blend, Java Monster - Kona Blend, and Blue Mr Dew Game Fuel. You should have seen how much shit I drank when I worked at Pepsi and our "Rework Department" (work loose cans into plastic shells to sell at a reduced cost) was how we stocked our cooler in the break room.

Alder | 243 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I've probably drank some form of caffeine, almost always soda, probably every week since I was in my teens. I've more or less kicked soda but lately caffeine in general. For the last few months I've been drinking nothing but plain green tea and water. I stayed up late one night to finish a project and had a cup of coffee and it wrecked me. I was all jittery and it felt awful. And just a few months ago I had been drinking a few cups a day without feeling anything. Mostly I'm just surprised how much more awake I feel drinking mostly water.

Astor Reinhardt | 199 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Diet Dr. Pepper or Sierra Mist these days. Used to be just Mt. Dew and chugging as many as possible. But the HFCS in them was really messing with me health wise. And I just heard from my G.I. doctor that I need to drop the soda completely. I can't just do diet or sugar sodas anymore. I'll probably cut the SM out and keep drinking diet until I can ease my way off of it...going to be hard since I get migraines a lot and that's my only source of caffeine.

empire | 106 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I used to drink em daily but i've stopped because I would enjoy having teeth as an old man. Monster Mule, Beaver Buzz root beer, Pacific Punch are my favs. I just drink black coffee now, Starbucks makes a nice microground instant coffee now so I keep those stocked at home.

Kguillemette | 1,543 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I drink coffee. Lots of coffee. And water. Every now and again I'll drop some energy mio into my water when I need a boost and am too lazy to brew some more coffee or to cheap to buy some. 3 bucks nets like 18 drinks worth of caffeine/herbs and stuff. Way better value than energy drinks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono1874 | 144 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Mostly just ice water, but ocassionally I'll go for some Dr. Pepper or Orange Juice. I'm actually drinking a Monster right now, because I'm at work and I feel like I'm about to fall asleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychobear85 | 141 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Sparkling/club/seltzer drinks black coffee ice cold water I use to do pre work out drinks when I go and work out but it was getting to pricey and I was feeling like shit after so now I just mix amino acids powder in water before and after I work out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD | 1,382 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I don't generally have energy drinks. Not even coffee. I do, however, sip on Red Bull when I'm driving from Miami to Orlando as I do tend to fall asleep on that drive. The Red Bull keeps me awake.

I was off of Red Bull for a while until I saw these a few months back. Decided to give it a shot and now I'm hooked. Good luck on your hunt!
