Reviews mention

  • Smooth, crash-free energy lift
  • Attractive, playful packaging aesthetics
  • Clean, green-tea caffeine formula
  • Refreshing, candy-like flavor options
  • Stevia-heavy, lingering aftertaste
  • Occasional jittery caffeine effect
  • Inconsistent, sometimes artificial flavors
  • Wasteful, gimmicky packaging inserts

GORGIE earns mixed reviews: many say it “works” with a smooth, green tea–based lift and no crash, while others find the stevia-forward sweetness and lingering aftertaste off-putting. Reviewers praise lively flavors like Watermelon Crush and Peachy Keen, clean ingredients (green tea caffeine, L‑theanine, biotin, B‑vitamins), and fun, eye‑catching packaging, but call out inconsistent flavor execution, occasional jitters, and branding missteps (wasteful disco-ball filler, exclusionary can design).

  • Not for me. Glad I got this as part of ThingTesting's new free product system because I would not buy again. I tried all 3 flavours. They smelled nice but the taste and aftertaste were very unpleasant. I think it's just hard to make a good tasting energy drink. The initial flavour is very sweet but the aftertaste is like an over steeped green tea, quite bitter and a bit jarring.

  • Gorgie's natural energy drinks impressed me with their delightful flavors and appealing packaging. I appreciated their focus on using quality ingredients. I would gladly choose Gorgie again for a refreshing and guilt-free energy boost.

  • They were a little too sweet for me and I feel like the flavors were a miss for me. The packaging and concept is so cool though. The drinks themselves are so pretty!

  • Tastes good! Not my favorite but aesthetically pleasing for sure

  • I enjoyed all the flavors I tried, peach and watermelon especially! I did feel like I had more energy after drinking. I absolutely loved opening the package, the mini disco balls were such a fun addition and I will definitely be using them as decor!

    I don't think I would purchase again full price. $3+ per drink seems a bit too much for me. I'm also not a fan of the "influencer" reviews on the back that show what the benefits of the drink are.

  • My wife and I really enjoyed Gorgie! From the clean, appealing packaging to the taste to the nice uplifting benefits of the ingredients, it was a fantastic beverage. I had this while fighting a mild cold and it helped me shake the brain fog that comes along with a head cold. The caffeine content, while formidable, provides a gradual lift rather than a sudden jolt, which helped me keep going.

    I am not sensitive to caffeine so I cannot attest to how it would feel to those with a low tolerance for caffeine.

  • I love these drinks! They are so tasty and everything about the design/packaging is so fun. I loved opening the box to some creative disco balls and confetti. It really made trying GORGIE a memorable experience. They also taste great and the flavors are unique so I don't feel like I'm drinking something that could have come from another brand.

  • I got a sample pack through the Thingdrop. It took about a week to arrive and the packaging was so cute with the included disco balls. I liked the flavors offered and the amount of carbonation is just right.

    I liked the general flavors and ingredients/benefits of the drinks. However there is a pretty strong lingering artificial sweetener flavor that I personally don't like. If you are a fan of diet sodas or are okay with a artificial sweetener taste then you should enjoy these.

  • Like many others I found the artificial sweetener to be super sweet and the taste to be belying of the health-centered approach of the Gorgie ethos. It did not taste bad by any means, but tastes like an artificial drink not a healthy drink if you catch my drift. Otherwise ingredients are great and it did give me energy, although I personally am more sensitive to caffeine. Presentation looks amazing, ingredients look good, overall I think a great product outside of the sweetening situation.

  • I think this all depends on the flavor you choose and your personal preference--I tried three of these and definitely enjoyed some more than others. That said, I liked the energy they gave me--I felt more alert, but not jittery. I would recommend trying them and choosing a flavor that you know you will like!

  • Really did not enjoy this. I love a sparkling water, as a recovering soda-holic, but this was not it. Too sweet (thanks, Stevia), not my favorite in terms of packaging and simply would not repurchase.

  • I appreciate the idea of a cuter, less macho energy drink... so I wanted to love these more!! The unboxing experience was very fun — like a bachelorette weekend condensed into 25 seconds — with hot pink tissue and mini disco balls. Functionally it "worked" for sure. I swapped it out for my usual iced coffee before a workout class and it did the job. and gave me more energy. No jitters or anything.

    Feedback

    The flavors were too artificial for my taste, especially the berry, and the addition of vitamins/biotin did not feel especially important to me.

    Verified purchase

  • First of all, the unboxing gave immaculate vibes. I purchased a sampler of 3 flavors, and opened the box to find a little party with the CUTEST disco balls you've ever seen! I strung them up and used them for decor in my office. I enjoy a low-sugar diet, and found that these hit the mark for the category. Particularly since they include biotin! I'll be honest that the flavors were not my favorite compared to some other brands I drink, but I still found myself reaching for the next can and the next. And am planning to reorder. So while I have other brands I enjoy more, these are definitely worth the purchase for variety in taste and vitamin consumption! Plus they look really cute when poured in a wine glass :)

  • Artificially sweet in a bad way.

    Good flavors overpowered by artificial sweeteners

  • Maybe I got a bad batch but the 3 flavors I tried all had a strong soapy taste.

    Feedback

    The odd chemical soap taste kinda ruined these. Cute packaging nonetheless.

  • I love the concept of the brand & the drink with benefits but I was not a fan of the taste and seeing what the price point is makes me unsure if I would ever purchase.

  • LOVE! None of that nasty artificial taste like other energy drinks. I enjoyed this from the first sip to the last. Also did not feel jittery or anything after award. A nice experience all around.

    The Watermelon flavor is so good!
