The Product
Product Description
NOS 22oz Bottle
BevNET Review:
This 16 oz drink has a pleasantly-tangy passion fruit flavor, which is a nice break from the Red
Bull-style formulas so often used in energy drinks. The co-branding with the NOS brand of nitrous
will definitely appeal to automotive buffs. And the obvious analogy of nitrous oxide is to cars as
energy drinks are to humans is brilliant. We like this brand and expect it will have good success
with the male auto-enthusiast demographic.
