5150 Energy Drink News: MYO | DIY | Homemade
SPECIAL INVESTIGATION: Consumers are being ripped off by over-priced Energy Drinks! Our investigation also revealed how to make your own Monster, Rockstar, or other brand-name energy drink for about 10¢ each (yes, that does say 10 cents)!
Simple Process – just add Liquid Caffeine to your favorite drink (water, sports drink, juice, etc). Really, that’s it. Listen, it doesn’t take rocket science to know that caffeine is the main energy ingredient in most energy drinks. Be sure to use Liquid Caffeine as powdered caffeine does not work. Okay, where to buy this amazing Liquid Caffeine…
5150 Energy … a gallon will cost you about $34.95 (with free shipping).
PureCaf … a gallon will cost you about $99.95 (not sure about the shipping).
Here are a couple of videos on how to use Liquid Caffeine (thanks to 51Fifty Energy for allowing us to use their videos).

Let’s compare Liquid Caffeine to brand-name Energy Drinks:
Let’s use the 51-Fifty Energy for comparison as it’s the cheapest. One Gallon of Liquid Caffeine has 64,000 mg of Caffeine. That comes out to about 500 mg of Caffeine per ounce. Or, about 83 mg of Caffeine per serving (one teaspoon). If you calculate this – it comes out to about 5¢ per serving (again, one serving is equal to about 83 mg of Caffeine).
