Okay, but wouldn’t buy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The powder has a good flavor, but it is too powdery. It’s really hard to mix with a spoon…with it being so dry, it clumps together once you add it to water. I prefer a more refined powder. Not tested for heavy metals I believe, so that may be something to look into.

Light refreshing flavor!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to receive this for my honest review—especially postpartum as I work on getting my body back. I’m not a fan of most protein shakes or thick, chalky drinks, so I was pleasantly surprised by how light and refreshing this was! The watermelon flavor isn’t overpowering, but still gives a great fruity vibe. I also love that it’s not overloaded with caffeine—just enough to match a cup of coffee—so I’ve been using it to replace my morning brew. Definitely excited to try more flavors!

Pleasant taste

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you Optimal Nutrients and Influenster for sending me a free tub of AMIN.O. ENERGY+, in flavor Watermelon Slash. I was pleasantly surprised by the taste. The watermelon taste is light and refreshing. I didn’t feel too jittery after drinking two scoops in 12 oz of water. It mixed very well, but I did use a mixer cup.

Tasty energy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am one who definitely needs my caffeine in the mornings. I absolutely love the watermelon flavor and surprisingly the 100mg of caffeine is just enough to get my day started. Just scoop into a blender bottle add some water and go on with your day. Love the convenience of not having to make coffee when I’m not feeling it.

Nice source of hydration

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Haven't had optimum nutrition's amino energy in a while. Usually I would have the grape flavor but the watermelon is fantastic! I would compare it to a watermelon jolly rancher. Helps give me energy throughout the workout and will continue to utilize this supplement.

Tastes great, doesn't agree with my anxiety

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love this pre-workout. It's super yummy and has plenty of caffeine to get me motivated for my morning workouts. A little bit after drinking it, my anxiety started kicking in and I got heart palpitations. After looking it up, I think it's a reaction to the beta alanine. Not worth it for me, but if youre okay with that ingredient definitely give this one a try

Tastes great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tastes really good and gives a nice little boost. I used it before a run and wasn't as sore as usual thanks to the amino acids. I was also happy with how easily it mixed. I couldn't find my shaker bottle and it dissolved just fine with a spoon in a glass of water.

Not the worst but not my favorite

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hydration and energy mix is pretty good. I find it mixes really well without leaving chunks of powder. You can tell it has caffeine because it definitely perked me up after drinking it. Nothing crazy but noticable. Flavor wise I was not a huge fan, if you like that sweet overly fake watermelon flavor this may be for you. Reminded me of a watermelon jolly rancher flavor.

Delicious, Effective Pre Workout

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Optimum Nutrition AMIN.O. ENERGY+, Watermelon Splash amazed me with the delicious flavor and the great boost of energy it gave me each time I used it! I don’t have a shaker, but it was very easy to mix with just a spoon or a straw. I used this multiple times before going to the gym, and it gave me lots of energy to get through a workout. I also love that it has zero sugar. It is definitely the best tasting pre workout I’ve ever had.

Great tasting!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Taste is pretty good, I personally don’t love watermelon and was hesitant that I would hate this product. Surprisingly the flavor was good, taste kind of like a watermelon jolly rancher. It was a little difficult to mix, I did not use a mixer cup instead I used a coffee frother which worked great! It did give me a good boost of energy for my long productive day which made me feel great! Overall this was fresh tasting, refreshing, and made me feel good.
