Bloom Sparkling Energy Drink
Summary
Bloom Sparkling Energy Drink scores 56/100. The best mainstream energy drink of the bunch with genuinely unique functional ingredients — galactomannan prebiotic fiber, Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng) root extract, patented lychee fruit and green tea leaf extract, apple cider vinegar, L-Theanine, and natural caffeine from green coffee beans (180mg). The formula reads more like a wellness elixir than a typical energy drink. However, sucralose (not stevia or monk fruit), dual preservatives (potassium benzoate + potassium sorbate), natural flavors, and cheap cyanocobalamin B12 prevent it from reaching the clean tier.
