The energy specialist, 5-Hour Energy, is the dominator of the entire energy shot category, and it has been getting some attention as of late with eye-catching rebrands, creative new flavors, and the gamer-marketed Gamer Shot Series. The brand has gone and created another product similar to Gamer Shot in that it’s a special edition variant targeting a specific audience or theme, it depends on how you look at it, although we feel it’s been crafted for a specific sport and the many that play it.
5-Hour Energy has released a flavor of its signature 5-Hour Energy Shot named Transfusion, pictured around gold clubs and balls in all of its promotional material, and the flavor itself is very much deeply rooted in the golfing community. For those not familiar with a Transfusion, no, we’re not talking about a blood transfusion; we mean the drink, the original classic golf cocktail Transfusion, featuring four key ingredients in vodka, ginger ale, grape juice, and for a splash of citrus, lime juice.
The combination of the golf cocktail-inspired flavor and the heavy golf marketing will definitely make the Transfusion 5-Hour Energy Shot an appealing product to golfers as a quick, anytime shot of uplifting energy. It has all of the brand’s usual energy shot ingredients in taurine, tyrosine, citicoline, and a strong 230mg of caffeine for a lasting five hours of energy, and you can get your hands on it directly from 5-Hour’s online store at 5hourenergy.com at $8 for a pack of two, shipping included.
