Super Mario Power Up! Energy Drink contains cocaine

Super Mario Power Up! Energy Drink contains cocaine photo
     Drugs

Ok, it doesn't, really. But if it had, wouldn't it have been some crazy gossip to tell your friends? "So, I was up trying to finish this paper, and I only had 6 hours left before class, so I slammed a few Power Ups and finished that sh*t an hour early!!!" They'd probably laugh. Or if you have any uptight friends, they might call the police and report you. Maybe it's best to forget that little fantasy altogether.

So what does Power Up contain? Not a clue, as the sites that sell it only describe it as "a blue-raspberry drink that will keep you jumping." I love the mystery of energy drinks, like no one really knows what's in there, despite the listing on the label. It could be powdered cow ass for all the consumer knows. You could host a gamer party and mix these with vodka, though. Certainly sets the theme better than a boring old six pack of Red Bull (although it can't come close to donning a Goomba costume).

It is actually a pretty wonderful drink. They sell them at the spencers at the mall near me.

Do tell. Bit surprised it has a "tangy kick" too. Like Put, via Spencers', might say its an easter egg for everyone to find. Overall not a bad drink.

You got me all excited about the cocaine Mario drink, but you lied about the cocaine. You're a cruel, cruel woman Colette.

Collecting energy drinks (hey...) and the obvious passion for games, I want this! But boring old Sweden... How can I get this without shipping it fifty laps around the world and paying more in shipping and taxes? :'(

Don't buy this stuff, it's a rip off. It tastes just like Red Bull (for the most part) and this thing costs a lot more. Now if you want an energy drink go with Pimp Juice. The name is dumb but it's pretty darn good.

Cocaine was so great, I almost bought a case on Ebay for $100. A few friends were going to pay for this, would have been great.

If you want energy go with Foosh Mints. Goddamn those things are powerful

Vodka? Why not martinis? If they're good enough for Bogart, they're good enough for us :D.

Mario Energy Cocaine Drinks for the win!
