With all the calorific new products I've picked up over the last week, at least one is conducive to a diet. It's a new flavor of Monster Ultra, the delicious Monster range that contains some of my favorite "diet" drinks. This looked like a low-cal version of the Monster Doctor that surfaced a couple of years ago, so I was hopeful it would be pretty great.
I know diet drinks aren't normally as good as the regular versions, and that's the case here. This stuff does taste like lemon, but it has more of a lemon sherbet edge thanks to the slight chemical tang. It's not a bad tasting drink, but the sweetener is definitely more noticeable than in the other Ultra flavours. It's still refreshing, and has a certain citrus edge, but all in all it's not particularly great. It'll do for a lemony energy hit though.
My rating: 3/5
