Brisk Mate Dragonfruit | The tater taste test

Brisk Mate dragonfruit and all the other flavors have been marketed by OpTic Gaming for a while now and I finally decided to give it a shot.

Tuesday night I finally broke down and ordered some off Amazon.  I have been waiting for it to be available here in Orlando and was tired of waiting.  Good morning to me it came in while I was getting up for work today!!!!  I rushed downstairs to see what was waiting for me and there it was in all its brown amazon box glory.

The real excitement was when I unboxed it and threw it in the fridge and knowing I would get to try it when I got home from work.

There it was nice and cold just waiting to be sipped.  I was happy that it was not overpowering of cheap artificial flavors.  It had a mostly tea taste with a slight hint of fruit.  Now I am no dragonfruit expert but I could taste it.  I would love to be able to sit here and go on and on about the subtle notes in every can but all I can say is its good.

Easily one of my favorite energy drinks good!

So if you want something that is not wings in a can or one of 50 flavors of Monster I say give this a shot.  You probably wont find it in stores here yet but its 100% worth buying off amazon to have some in your fridge.  So trust ole tater and give it a shot you wont be disappointed!

Check out my video on YouTube HERE and let me know what you think if you've had it or any other flavors!

Day 4 | Frozen Paleo challenge

Image
Day 4 Today feels like a good day I woke up feeling pretty good (this may also be the coffee talking at this point) had a good breakfast and spent some time with the pooch.  I am excited about the day and to see how my body responds to a hockey game tonight with this diet going for a few days now.  I just hope I have the energy reserves to play like I want to.  I brought a couple of the caveman bars and a Lara bar with me today so I can snack on one before the game and get some extra juice.   Lunch was the first repeat of the meals I had the beef chili with sweet potatoes again.  After trying the others I am more pleased with this one than before.  It actually has some flavor and is edible!  still not great but I could eat it in a pinch.  I may have gone softer also because it was spicy today and I am far from upset about that just wasn't mentally prepared for it. Had a great end of the day feeling great mentally already and having ener...

Challenge is on hold

I am putting the challenge on hold. With everything going on down here in Florida with hurricane Irma preparations I am going to put this challenge on hold for now.   I will pick this up again once everything is all clear again, I had some positive weight results dropping 8.7 lbs during the week and minus the lack of energy during my hockey game I felt great.  If i can get time I will try to blog during the next few prep days.  I apologize for not being regular with this right now but there are more pressing issues obviously.   If I do evacuate the Orlando area I will be vlogging that trip and what is going on so I will have a new video and internet to actually post it!  Thanks for taking time to read this over the last week and the posts prior to this.   Stay safe if you are in Florida, its not worth testing this storm if you have the ability to leave.  Houses and belongings can be replaced.  Plus who wouldn't like a little time ...

My time with Irma

Image
My time with Hurricane Irma Its been a long couple weeks for everyone here in Orlando, friends have only recently as yesterday gotten power back and still have issues from the storm.  I have had friends lose everything due to flooding, countless yards to clean up and lots of just getting back to normal here.   I was one of the lucky ones even though I went to Clarksville to visit family during Irma I had no damage to my house and from what I can tell only lost power for a couple hours during the storm.  The trick to telling is putting an ice cube in a bowl to see how much it melts when you get back.  I still threw everything away minus a few condiments.  Mustard and ketchup will keep fine after getting a little warm.  It was kinda relaxing to just throw a bunch of stuff away and start over on my food.  I feel cluttered and almost annoyed when I have so much food that I think it will be wasted. Clarksville/Nashville was a fun time, I got t...
