Alani Nu earns strong reviews for flavorful, candy-like energy drinks and effective pre-workout that deliver a noticeable boost, indicating the brand works for many users. However, feedback flags overly sweet, artificial-tasting flavors, high caffeine that can cause jitters or anxiety, and divisive use of sucralose; protein shakes (Cookies & Cream, Munchies) and gummies also win praise.

alani please make a 100 mg caffeine drink please im begging
To say I'm obsessed with Alani Nu energy drinks would be a massive understatement. The flavors are sweet, fun, and taste more like candy than a typical energy drink—which is exactly what I want. No weird aftertaste, no bitterness—just a smooth, delicious boost of 200mg of caffeine that gets me going without the jitters or crash. I got hooked in 2022 when my friend had me try a sip of her can of Witch's Brew—and WOW. It literally tastes like a caramel-covered apple lollipop, and I've been a fan ever since. My friends even have a running joke that a can of Alani Nu would be part of a “Linds Johnston Starter Pack”—that's how much I love them. I drink them anytime I need a pick-me-up. There are only a few flavors I don't love, one being Pink Slush—which is a bummer since it's so cute! I have to mention that the PB&J protein bars are amazing! They actually taste like a treat while still having solid protein content—easily one of my favorite snacks. If I had one complaint, it's that I wish there was a way to make the drinks 0 calories without artificial sweeteners like sucralose and Ace-K. It would be great to see a naturally sweetened version that still keeps the amazing taste. If you love fruity, dessert-like energy drinks that actually taste good, Alani Nu is a must-try. Easily my go-to and a 10/10 recommendation!
Love their energy drinks and pre-workout. The peach flavor is SO good. Also, their gummies are a great addition to their product line and I like them much more than other better for you gummy candies that I have tried.
I've tried a few different products from Alani Nu. My general conclusion is that everything from this brand is super sweat. Maybe that's for you, maybe it's not! I will say the Witch's Brew flavor of the energy drink is tasty and feels festive during fall. Too sweet for me (personally) to drink in the morning but good for an afternoon pre-workout. The premade protein shake in the Munchies flavor is the one thing I would recommend to anyone. It's delicious and creamy.
I am an AlaniNu addict- canned pre-workout specifically. Her branding is on point and I love the flavors. I get really excited for the limited ones; right now I love Creamsicle, Juicy Peach and Kiwi Guava. I’ve also tried the Smoothie Rings and they are 10/10 for less sugar candy.

Limited flavors are found on the AlaniNu website, GNC, Vitamin Shoppe and other retailers near you. Target and Walmart sell the staple flavors, but Walmart has Blue Slush limited.
I have tried several flavors of the energy drinks and have used their "balancing" supplement. The flavors are yummy but definitely more on the unnatural side. Not necessarily a bad thing! The best way I can describe them is that they taste like Skittles. As far as energy drinks go, this is one of my favorites! I definitely prefer the taste to a Red Bull.

So far, every product I have tried has been delicious (and available in multiple form factors).
Have yet to try one thing I don't like! Superior quality and excellent taste. My favorites are their energy drinks and pre-workout but I eventually would like to try more of their line!
Feedback
Better price consistency, the pricing on their website is more than what you can purchase it for in stores or on Amazon.

I love their mission and brand aesthetic, but the several flavors I have tried are way to sweet for me. If they offered a less sweet flavor, I would be open to trying other options from this brand.

I love alani nu but I know for some people the flavors are off putting and unappealing. The flavors are very sweet or typically unconventional as they’re rather random with cherry slushy or “cosmic stardust”. I only really like a few flavors from them but I love the vitamins it has and is a great pick me up on an off day

Concerns. The artificial sweetener. However, have you looked on the shelves at other brands. Premier, etc. I wish the owners would come to ur with the awesomeness with brand. Stevia? Or Non dairy? The Vanilla Protein Shake is one of my favorites however, they can never offer any type of restocking date? We order some in x date, we think we estimate the delivery to be in December…. Not check back on our social media sites from time to time, and often. Customer service and the fact that they ran out of a basic flavor for three almost 2.5 months now. Not the best for when you need your protein shake. Flavor 5, customer service and inventory management. 2…. Energy drinks great. Some flavors better than others Peach, cosmic? Not sure what flavor that really is… gummies, perfection. Melon and worms are the best. They have fiber. Just pricey… but all in all. Good products. Just think their shakes and drinks could be healthier.

Really good drinks but keep the kimmades and make the blueberry one blue colored drink and the pink slush one pink colored drink overall the canned drinks are so so good

I’m obsessed with their pre-workout! I have tried quite a few pre-workouts on the market and this brand is by far my favorite—the ingredients are clean, the product works very well, and no don’t crash afterwards. I’ve been trying to cut back on my caffeine intake for my cortisol levels, and have been able to drink this in the morning and not need coffee the rest of the day.

These energy drinks really work. I don't feel guilty about drinking them because of the natural ingredients and low calorie count. Also, they have really fun flavors that tastes amazing! Cherry Slush, Mimosa, and Blueberry are top 3 favorites.
