Pros and cons
Sparkling Energy Drink – Crisp Apple (12 oz, 12-Pack)
- 180 mg caffeine per can is a well-studied, effective dose for alertness
- 10 calories, 0 g sugar and no artificial colors or aspartame
- L-theanine alongside caffeine is a combination with supportive research for calm focus
- Buyers and creators consistently describe the flavor as sparkling apple cider rather than candy-sweet
- Full ingredient list published, with no proprietary blend named on the can
- Amounts of L-theanine, taurine, ginseng and prebiotic fiber are not disclosed anywhere on the label
- Nutrition panel shows 0 g dietary fiber despite the prebiotic marketing
- Sweetened with sucralose, which some drinkers taste as an aftertaste
- Seasonal limited edition, so stock and pricing fluctuate; 180 mg caffeine is a lot for sensitive drinkers
Coffee+ Mushroom Coffee (Mild Roast)
- 45 mg caffeine paired with 150 mg L-theanine for smoother energy
- About 5 g of protein per serving from collagen, with a creamy texture
- Uses organic chaga and lion's mane fruiting-body extracts
- 4.5 stars from 9,500+ buyer reviews
- All actives sit in a 7,300 mg proprietary blend with no individual amounts on the label
- Label order implies small mushroom amounts, at odds with the marketed 1,500 mg
- About $1.33 per serving, far more than regular coffee
- Contains bovine collagen, so it is not vegan
Our verdicts
Sparkling Energy Drink – Crisp Apple (12 oz, 12-Pack)
As an energy drink this does the one thing that matters: 180 mg of caffeine with L-theanine for a smoother lift, at 10 calories and no sugar. The supporting cast — prebiotic fiber, ginseng, apple cider vinegar — is present in undisclosed and probably token amounts, so treat the gut-health and metabolism messaging as marketing rather than a reason to buy. Worth it if you like the cider-style flavor and want a zero-sugar caffeine hit; skip it if you are caffeine-sensitive or avoid sucralose.

Coffee+ Mushroom Coffee (Mild Roast)
Everyday Dose is a tasty, gentle coffee alternative, and its caffeine-theanine pairing is a reasonable way to take the edge off coffee jitters. Treat the mushroom claims skeptically: the whole formula is a proprietary blend and the extracts appear to be present in small amounts, so you are mostly paying for a pleasant low-caffeine latte.
