Reviews mention

  • Smooth, jitter-free energy effect
  • Refreshing, fizzy mouthfeel
  • Appealing watermelon crush flavor
  • Thoughtful green tea caffeine blend
  • Lingering stevia aftertaste
  • Overly sweet, chemical notes
  • Polarizing, gimmicky branding
  • Wasteful, unsustainable packaging

GORGIE earns largely positive reviews for delivering a smooth, jitter-free lift from green tea caffeine and L‑theanine, with many noting refreshing flavors like Watermelon Crush, Peachy Keen, and Paradise/Paradise Punch. Reviews also flag persistent downsides: a strong stevia/artificial aftertaste for several flavors, occasional overly sweet, “chemical” notes, polarizing branding and can design, and wasteful unboxing extras; still, the steady energy and appealing bubbles make it a worthwhile try if flavor profiles align.

  • I think whether or not you like these energy drinks will completely depend on how you feel about stevia. I personally feel like I can always taste stevia, it has a bitter note, and it's distracting from other flavors, which is why I'm so-so on this brand. I tried their Peach Tea and Mango Burst. I do really like that the flavors are true to the names: in the peach tea, I could clearly taste both peach and tea. I also like that the caffeine isn't out of control so I don't risk getting jittery after using one of these. I don't think I'd buy again because of the strong stevia taste but I think they're worth trying for people who don't mind or prefer stevia as their sweetener.

  • I'm usually a celsius energy drink fan. Compared to Celsius, Gorgie has less caffeine, much lighter in flavor, and leaves just a slight aftertaste - you know the aftertaste you get after sipping on redbull. Overall, I like the sparkling feature, vitamins, and caffeine extracted from green tea but the light flavor hasn't convinced me to replace my Celsius.

  • Really tasty! Not too bubbly or sweet and great refreshing flavors.

  • I'm not a huge energy drink fan but have been seeing GORGIE everywhere so I decided to try it through the thingtesting reimbursement program. I thought it was good for an energy drink (definitely not as fake tasting as a monster etc.) but still had somewhat of an artificial taste. I react strongly to caffeine so I only drank half of the can (before noon) at one time but safe to say, I didn't experience a crash or a difficult time sleeping at the end of the night.

  • I loved Gorgie's overall mission and good for you ingredients! I love that they use natural ingredients and is low on both calories and sugar. The only reason it's not getting a 5 rating from me is due to the interesting after taste that makes it feel as if you're drinking a supplement which I didn't really love. Other than that, I think it is a great alternative energy drink option!

  • Unboxing was fun with cute packaging details, and the vitamins are nice to have, but neither are a reason to repurchase. It got me through some tired afternoons really well, but the flavors tasted artificial and I wasn't a fan of the aftertaste. I did not find myself enthusiastically reaching for the next can.

  • Unfortunately I was not a fan. The packaging is ultra-cute and the flavours sounded so yummy, but there was an intense artificial sugar flavour that I just could not get over.

    I wish there was a different sweetener (or no sweetener) in this drink!

  • Tasted a little chemically to be honest! Dosing feel much energy either. Cute packaging though.

  • Packaging is beautiful but the actual drink tasted too artificially sweet and I feel like the “health benefits” were not valid. It’s an energy drink with great marketing, but there’s no way it can be good for you.

    Too sweet

  • I normally enjoy energy drinks, but I didn't care for any of these flavors. I took a couple sips of each and unfortunately didn't want any more. I appreciate the additional vitamins in these drinks, but the flavors weren't my favorite. I really wanted to love these, especially since the cans look so pretty in my fridge.

    Feedback

    I wish the flavorings tasted more natural. They were too artificial and with the added vitamins, it tasted too medicinal.

  • I am loving GORGIE! First of all, the flavors are pretty good and don't have too much of an artificial taste. I think it's hard to find the balance in an energy drink of taste and ingredients. Overall I think the ingredients are a great benefit, much better than most energy drinks. It did have the wanted affect on me, giving me a little pick-me-up with no crash.

    Feedback

    I think the flavors leave something to be desired but overall I will purchase again.

  • The peach flavor was my favorite, it tastes like a bottled peach iced tea. Mixed berry was just ok for me, watermelon flavor was like a watermelon Jolly Rancher. All were somewhat artificial tasting and there was an aftertaste but it dissipated quickly. I didn't feel jittery or wired after drinking them, it was a pleasant. Overall, I like that there are vitamins and biotin in these, as well as caffeine, but I won't pay full price for them.

  • The product unfortunately carries the fake sugar flavor. The flavor completely overpowers the beverage. I unfortunately-- did not care for this product.

    Feedback

    The fake sugar flavor-- needs to come out of the product. It blocks everything.

  • So far i've only tried the watermelon flavor and found that it tasted a lot like a watermelon Celsius. For boasting such natural ingredients I felt like artificial flavors were dominant. But the color of the drink was really pretty and the packaging was super cute and fun Even with the Thingtesting discount, I felt that the price was steep (but I'm a sucker for a fun beverage so had to try it :) ). Overall not bad, but not overwhelmingly impressed

  • Definitely very clean in comparison to other energy drinks but it was a bit sweet for me. I would try other flavors though.

  • Dude, you gotta try GORGIE's sparkling energy drink! 🍹 It's like your favorite soda but with a serious kick of energy. What I love the most is the clean, refreshing taste—no weird aftertaste like some other brands. Plus, it's packed with natural ingredients, so you don’t feel like you're drinking a chemistry experiment. Compared to other energy drinks, GORGIE stands out for its smooth fizz and balanced flavor. The only thing I’d tweak is the price—it’s a bit on the higher side. But honestly, the quality makes it worth it. Cheers to more productive days! 💪

  • I tried the Watermelon Crush and I didn’t love the flavor. I could tell it tasted artifical and was hoping for a more subtle and real taste. I also didn’t feel a change in my energy but I am also not that reactive to caffiene

  • I typically don't drink energy drinks, so I'm no connisour. But I do have to say that the level of caffeine does not make me jittery. It still has that "energy drink" taste, but less jarring.

  • I think the idea is cool and the energy market is definitely growing but I couldn’t love the flavor as much as I wanted to. They definitely have a fake sugar that isn’t sucralose so you could tell the difference in flavor.
