Assalaam walaikum:
Coke when it was first manufactured did contain cocaine. That was almost a century ago. They took it out.
Root beer is sweet. Ginger root beer is better but has a kick to it.
Honey is excellent unless you are a diabetic. But honey with apple cider vinegar and lemon juice is good for the body. Many people drink this mixture in water and swear they do not catch a cold.
We need to be careful about high fructose corn syrup. I am scared to write too much on the subject as I will be blamed once again for being a conspiracy theorist. Read up on why they use it and who profits from it. The body is unable to break it down.
In all soft drinks they do not use sugar. They use high fructose corn syrup. It is addictive and nasty.
If you really want to stay awake the beverage that will do it all is Mountain Dew. If you take a moment to look at the color you will discover it is a nuclear green.

I'm with you brother.
I have had 1 energy drink, and I cannot see how people enjoy that. I felt jittery the entire time, and my hands were shaking. After about 4 hours, i had a serious CRASH. I was leaning against the wall in the stockroom falling asleep.
I'll take fruit juice or fruit anyday over an energy shot or drink.
Where I work, people buy them by the case.

Waalaykum assalaam,
Thank-you for posting. As the reading say and for mass Industrial production on commercial basis the later option is better. Agreed. I am thinking of the countries that have vast plains as well as are agro-based and have large number of cattles than is there a first possibility for producing Taurine and other ingredients for such energy drinks ? I feel that that the first way might be cheaper and we can see that the companies go by low production costs. so is there this first way too ? What’s your take on this akhi ? - much appreciated.
The same way the concern is for medicines and beauty lotions-creams and on. I read some fatwas and that generally say to stay away from all the products that fall in doubtful category. Further, seen that the people aren't much bothered about the back-grounds of all such products, which should be. I remember when ‘Mecca cola’ was introduced here muslims gave unprecedented response but however over-all response summing other communities is not there so may be there are less retailers now- a-days who sell it. The noteworthy thing to be noticed is as muslims we will prefer at most such things that we are very sure of, basing first Islamically, hygienically and so forth. However the foreign energy drinks do not make us that sure-off everytime and we get puzzled whether the ingredients are Ok, way of manufacturing is right and so on. Is it?
:salam2:
Oh, I hope you were okay. That's interesting as a similar phenomenon is experienced when people consume fizzy drinks (carbonated). A short burst of energy and then you feel low (or as you mentioned 'crashing').
It always surprised me why people had energy drinks as they are priced 2-3 times more than a pure fruit juice drink (ie back home, not sure about the US). Not only do I prefer the taste of juices, but also it refreshes me a lot more.

I was fine thank you for asking. And I've never experienced that from a fizzy drink :O
Well, they are expensive usually. At a regular grocery or gas station, they charge an arm and a leg. But where I work, everything is $1 (The Dollar Tree) We sell off-brand cheap energy drinks & shots from a brand called "Rip It". http://www.dollartree.com/catalog/search.cmd?form_state=searchForm&keyword=rip+it&x=0&y=0
The juice I buy is Tropicana, not from concentrate and is $6. Not bad considering it lasts us like 2 weeks alhamdulilah.
You are welcome. That's good to know. Alhamdulillah.
Tropicana is quite expensive brand. We get a cheaper imitation of it called 'Simply Orange' in Texas. Also, chilled apple cider after a hard long day is just awesome. It's like 2 dollars for a liter and is unsweetened.
So yea, definitely more economical than energy drinks.

I had a sort of related question - is it okay if I post here? I wonder if anyone knows whether chocolate liquor contains alcohol in it?
I tried to search for it, and some sites said yes it does, and others, that it doesn't. I also found an interesting bit that 'liquor' doesn't have alcohol, but 'liqeur' does.
Any idea?

do you drink it?
I don't think its a problem.In arab culture the bedouins drink camel urine if they are sick or something like that.Also in whole of asia and africa there are many ingredients used in the making of herbs which you will find disgusting to hear about,but they are used in herbal medicine.

Surprisingly enough, chocolate liquor does NOT have alcohol in it. It is made when the center of a cocoa bean is grounded into a smooth state then liquidated.
And you are correct, chocolate liqeur DOES have a small amount of alcohol.
