Energy Drink

An energy drink is a type of non-alcoholic psychoactive functional beverage containing stimulant compounds, usually caffeine and taurine, which is marketed as reducing tiredness and improving performance and concentration. They may or may not be carbonated and may also contain sugar, as well as other sweeteners, or herbal extracts, among numerous other possible ingredients. Energy drinks are different from sugar-sweetened beverages. While both energy drinks and sugar-sweetened beverages typically contain high levels of sugar, energy drinks include stimulants like caffeine and taurine and are marketed for energy, and sugar-sweetened beverages like sodas and fruit juices usually are not.
