Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy – Watermelon Flavor – A Perfect Boost!
I’ve been using Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy as my go-to pre-workout for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed! Here’s why:Amazing Taste:The Watermelon flavor is absolutely delicious! I’ve tried a lot of pre-workouts in the past, and this one stands out in terms of taste. It’s refreshing and fruity without being too sweet or overpowering. Definitely a treat to look forward to before my workouts.Energy Boost:This pre-workout gives me a clean and sustained energy boost thanks to the Green Tea and Green Coffee Extract. I feel energized without the jittery crash that some other products give me. It’s perfect for both early morning workouts and mid-day training sessions when I need that extra kick.Supports My Keto Lifestyle:As someone who follows a keto-friendly diet, I appreciate that this product fits into my routine without any guilt. It helps me power through my workouts without kicking me out of ketosis, which is a huge bonus.BCAAs & Amino Acids:The addition of BCAAs and Amino Acids is a major plus. I feel like I’m getting that extra support for muscle recovery, which has been helping me push harder in my workouts while reducing muscle soreness afterward.Convenient and Effective:With 30 servings in the container, it’s great value for the price. Plus, I love that it mixes easily with water—no clumps or weird texture, just smooth, refreshing flavor every time.

The BESTT
This pre workout is my FAVORITE pre workout. I love the fresh, citrusy flavor because it is not sweet at all and you don’t get sick of the flavor after 3 or 4 sips. My energy kicks in about 20 mins after I drink it and I don’t feel jittery. I feel energized and motivated to workout and it helps me push through. The powder is finely milled, easy to mix. Great price for a great product.

Put the scooper on the TOP
I absolutely LOVE Amino Energy, Blueberry Mojito. It is delicious. Best pre-work/ energy booster out I’ve ever purchased.It doesn’t have an after taste, and gives a balanced amount of energy with no jitters. I can take it before a work out, or when I just need a boost of energy.My one and only complaint is that every order I receive… The scooper is always at the bottom of the container. I have no other choice but to dig my hand into it to get the scooper out.Put the scooper on top so that I don’t have to dig for gold, and I’ll give you five stars :-)

A staple item in our house
We were introduced to Amino Energy years ago when we were participating in CrossFit. We continue to use this product today because of its high-quality ingredients and the incredible energy boost it provides without feeling overstimulated. Compared to many other energy drinks, this powder offers good value for the money. We typically buy the fruit punch and think it tastes great. It is recommended that you drink 100 oz. of water while taking this supplement.

Refreshing with a much needed boost for my workout
This is pefect for my 0 sugar diet. The flavor isn't too overpowering like some can be. I like the little caffeine boost with it. A great balance of amino acids for recovery. It mixes easily with water and isn't clumpy. The quality seems high and I would definitely get it again!

Works great, flavor confusion
I really love how the product makes me feel… It delivers a nice boost of energy without making me feel intense or jittery. But I have struggled to find the right flavor. The Concord Grape tastes great, but it has lots of blue/red dye and stains plastic cups purple. The new citrus spritz is clear in color (great) but tastes a lot like grapefruit. I was hoping for a orange/lemon flavor. And don’t get me started on the stupid tiny scoop they place inside the half empty container. It gets lost in the powder. I tape the scoop to the outside of the container (see photo of grape flavor).

Great Energy Boost, But Artificial Dyes Are a Drawback
I’ve been using Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy in Blue Raspberry for a few weeks as a pre-workout, and overall, it’s a solid product that delivers on its promises. Here’s my take after trying it consistently:Performance: This powder gives a smooth, sustained energy boost without the jitters I’ve experienced with other pre-workouts. The mix of caffeine (from green tea and green coffee extract) and amino acids helps me power through workouts and stay focused. I also appreciate the BCAAs for muscle recovery, especially after intense sessions. The 30-serving tub is convenient and lasts a decent amount of time.Taste and Mixability: The Blue Raspberry flavor is enjoyable—sweet but not overpowering. It mixes easily in water with no gritty residue, which is a big plus. I use about 16 oz of water per 3 scoops (4 scoops if I want more energy), and it dissolves perfectly.Ingredients Concern: My main hesitation is the inclusion of artificial dyes and sweeteners. While the green tea and green coffee extracts are great, I wish the ingredients were more natural overall. The bright blue color from the dyes feels unnecessary, and I’d prefer a cleaner formula, especially for a product marketed as keto-friendly. This makes me unsure if I’ll repurchase unless they offer a dye-free version.Value: The price is reasonable for 30 servings, especially compared to other pre-workouts with similar ingredients. It’s versatile enough for pre-workout, mid-day energy, or even a study boost, which adds to its value.Final Thoughts: Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy is effective and tastes great, making it a reliable choice for energy and recovery. However, the artificial dyes are a letdown for those prioritizing natural ingredients. If you don’t mind the dyes, it’s worth trying, but I’d love to see a cleaner formula in the future. Four stars for solid performance but room for improvement.
