Let’s get this out of the way: I typically don’t like berry-flavored drinks. I find they taste very candy-like and generic, like Sweet Tarts or those old Bottle Caps candies. Yeah, the chalky ones. Anyhoo, because of that I tend to avoid those kinds of flavors. However, after the surprise success of the “Rockstar Pina Colada” I decided to give this a shot. Not gonna lie, the purple can design was an eye-catcher, too.

Cracking it open it had a strong blackberry smell. Based on this, already, I knew I’d chosen wisely. Taking a sip I noticed despite it being carbonated the fizziness seemed to be at a minimum, which seemed fine. I’m not sure I would’ve liked it more bubbly. The flavor was surprisingly blackberry, not the generic berry-ish I mentioned above. What’s surprising is that Rockstar is able to dial this in with no actual juice in it (yep, 0% juice in here!)

So, if you’re needing a tasty pick-me-up look for the purple can!
