Far as I can tell, Red Bull tastes very much like a cocktail of Robitussin, flat Dr Pepper, slightly spoiled Maneschewitz sweet wine, and the stuff dentists put on your teeth to bond and seal them.
It is undoubtedly one of the worst-tasting beverages I have ever had, in addition to which, its "energy lift" was markedly short in duration, and caused a certain unpleasant queasiness.
Why anyone would drink it on purpose is beyond me.
