As a mom of three teenagers and a full-time paraprofessional working with kids who have special needs, my days are nonstop. I start my days with coffee but some days I just need a little extra energy mid-day to get me through. I don’t like the crash, jitters or extra sugar that come with typical energy drinks though. That’s why Naked Sparkling Energy drinks are perfect for me!
Naked Sparkling Energy isn’t your average can of caffeine. It’s clean and simple with just six ingredients, including organic lemon juice and plant-based natural flavors that offer a refreshing boost rather than an artificial jolt. The 200mg of natural caffeine comes from unroasted coffee beans. It’s sweetened with monk fruit and fermented sugar cane — no added sugar, artificial sweeteners or hidden ingredients!
Now let’s talk flavor. I tried the strawberry lemonade flavor which is light and citrusy with the perfect amount of sweetness. Poured over ice, it’s a refreshing pick-me-up, especially during Arizona summers! I also like the slim can with a minimalistic design. These will be perfect for stocking the classroom mini fridge for those days me and my co-workers need an extra boost to power through our busiest days without the crash or shaky feeling I’ve experienced with other drinks!
Honestly, with teens in the house, I’m extra mindful about what kind of energy drinks are in the fridge. Knowing this one is vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO, and free of artificial sweeteners gives me peace of mind and while I’m still not a proponent of energy drinks for kids, I’d be comfortable with allowing these on occasion.
I wanted to really put this drink to the test so I drank one on an empty stomach. I’m normally very careful about how I consume caffeine because even with some coffees I’ve experienced a racing heart and uncomfortable jitteriness. I do not like feeling this way at all. Thankfully, consuming Naked Sparkling Energy in this manner did not upset my stomach at all and I only felt a nice, even boost of energy without jitters or a crash!
Whether I’m managing behaviors at work, or cheering my kids on from the bleachers at a softball game, Naked Sparkling Energy helps me show up at my best. I can confidently recommend it to fellow moms, educators, and anyone who needs clean energy that works as hard as they do!
