Monster M-80 Energy Juice Drink Review

Drink: Monster M-80
Official Site:
Monster Energy

Monster M-80 seems to have the same generic flavor of other energy juice blends. Though somewhat sweet with a hint of passion fruit, the classic energy drink aftertaste just drags the whole ensemble down.

Summary: Like every other energy juice I've had.
Final Score: 3 out of 5

  • Since peanut butter is a carbon containing material, it can be converted into the hard carbon structure of a diamond.
  • Small red crystals can be made from oxygen by using the same method.
