Rediscovering Rockstar Energy Drink in Vietnam!

- Food Travel Log
- Finally got to visit Vietnam after COVID. I found my favorite Rockstar Energy Drink, which withdrew from Japan! I loved its sharp chemical smell, like tasting iron with my tongue. However, the taste has changed to a medicinal clear flavor. Have you lost your fizz? It’s okay to be sharp again; I’ll accept everything.

- Rockstar Energy Drink is a brand originating from the United States and is popular worldwide. While it is a carbonated drink, its taste in the energy drink category is particularly characterized by a chemical flavor. However, when I encountered this taste in Vietnam, perhaps weakened by the sun and humidity, it seemed a bit different from the sharp kick I experienced when drinking it in Japan. Ho Chi Minh City, with its increasingly international influences, might be a place where such beverages are embraced and unique variations emerge. Incidentally, it's basic to drink energy drinks cold. Enjoying a drink while gazing at the streets of Ho Chi Minh is pleasant, but perhaps I should have been more mindful of keeping it in the fridge. As for the author of this gourmet blog, one might expect they have a sharp edge like Rockstar as a Japanese energy drink enthusiast. However, surprisingly, once they left Japan, it seems they lost their fizz and perhaps, not just the flavor but even the author themselves are becoming more mellow.
