Forgot about that Vault one from Mountain Dew. That's good stuff.
NewbieShroomie - no real ratio to follow. I usually do half and half, but probably would be good to start 3:1 Monster:Vodka

They are tying to ban it because they use ephedrine to make methamphedemines, and that problem is huge nowdays...

Sobe adrenaline rush are my favorite, they taste good. If you drink two of them you definitely get sped up. Have you guys ever run into "Guru" brand? They are all natural, nothing artificial.

I drink "Piranha" and the first as is like, an anarchy symbol. lol its got a crazy fish on it with feet, and some crazy thing comin out of its head. anyways its only 8.4oz can, like red bull, but it doesnt taste like carbonated goat urine, like red bull. it has less than 2% each of: guarana extract, green tea extract, caffeine, and "taurine"

I work at a natural food store and we sell the guru brand as well as a few others (blue sky, and some orange one in a big can like full throttle). They're all the same premise though: herbs with energy promoting (read: caffeine) properties, B vitamins (this is why your pee turns bright yellow; B vitamins are good for reducing stress and gaining energy), as well as sugar (for obvious reasons). Excessive consumption of energy drinks can be bad for you for the same reason Ma Huang/Ephedrine can be: the excessive caffeine causes your heart rate to increase too much, and can raise your blood pressure. Some people should avoid energy drinks (ppl with high blood pressure or irregular heart beats), but they're fairly safe for most people to use. Excessive consumption of caffeine will fuck with your adrenals though, and, as with most things, they're best in moderation. Drinking energy drinks all the time will make you reliant upon them for energy. I can personally vouch for the fact that withdrawal symptoms from caffiene (yes, they exist and include some fuckin horrible headaches) are not fun.
Here at the natural food store, many people consider caffeine to be worse for you than pot.

deryl said: ephedrine isn't illegal.
it's not even scheduled.
you can buy it OTC.
I checked it out deryl, and for the most part, you are right. However, three states have banned it: California, New York, and Illinois. Of course I live in one of those states.  I think maybe what caused me to make the original statement, aside from the stuff being banned in my state, is that the FDA has been trying to get it banned across the country for about the last 15 years.
Not sure this is true, my bro (we live in NY) bought a bottle a few months ago, after ephedrine was hastily taken from shelves. It wasn't for energy though, it had guaifenesin which is a chemical found in many cough syrups that causes vomiting in high doses and was no doubt added as a deterrant for the 8th grader looking for a quick buzz. No matter, I would take 8 of those things and be pretty buzzed. Like 80 in a bottle for 10 bucks! Haven't looked around for them lately but they were OTC
