Caffeine Mints by Rally, 60milligram Caffeine, Instant Energy, Fresh Breath Caffeinated Mints, 0 Sugar, Natural Peppermint Flavor (2 Packs, 20 Mints)

The taste is not as bad as the other reviews claim. I almost did not buy because of the taste reviews. It works as expected and tastes way better than energy drinks in my opinion

If I take 2, it’s like I drank a cup of coffee - in about a half hour. Not jittery, just not sleepy anymore. Exactly what I was aiming for. Kind of a weird aftertaste, but totally worth it. Like cinnamon flavor the best.

Product worked pretty well for me. Very easy to use and the energy I got nice for the middle of my day. It was just a little energy and it did great. The only issue I had was the taste. the taste was a little mint-like but an unpleasant taste came shortly after. The unpleasant taste stayed with me for a while after I finished the mint.

These taste so, so bad. You have to be really hard up for caffeine. It's like sucking on a mint flavored aspirin and it takes forever to dissolve. I had one for the sake of fully trying them, and the caffeine feeling is nice but it was all I could do not to spit it out. The main flavor is a bitter chemical taste. You would NEVER mistake this for a candy or mint. I'm not sure what to do with the rest of them. I think swallowing them like pills or chewing them and washing them down with a beverage would be the only way to go.

Literally makes me feel like a kid again its basically a small pez or maybe smarties size mint with such a cool battery holder its like a mini toy but for adults lol..they aren't strong at first like the mint flavor but closer to the end of finishing the mint it it started to kick in but at a good pace but nothing crazy just feels good and fresh minty breath, surprisingly strong caffeine wise, i had some of my family try them all good reviews, they all said theyd use it especially with such a small packaging. I tired other mints before and this one by far not super sweet but not bitter either, the cap is on there nice and snuggle so I'm not worried it will come lose in a bag or my pocket.

I was nervous buying these based on the reviews, but figured worst case I could use them like pills. The compact and (lets face it) amusing packaging got me, but also the much lower dosage than most caffeine pills.Anyway, the taste is fine. A little bitter, yes, but overall nothing I loathed to eat and the aftertaste was fine. Caffeine itself is incredibly bitter, so they've done a pretty good job masking the flavor. My only complaint is the body of the pill bottle isn't the same size of a AA cell (which they didn't say it was) and they're pretty pricey ($5.25/container at the time of writing) for what they are. Not sure I'd use them every day, but for a vacation or conference, absolutely.

When I see something marketed as "Natural Peppermint Flavor" I'm expecting the flavor of like a TikTak or a Peppermint Candy Cane, after-dinner mint, etc...These mints are none of those flavors. There was definitely an attempt at something resembling "mint", but between the strange taste, chalky texture and awful aftertaste it leaves in your mouth, it's not something I think I'd want to buy again. The caffeine part seems to work ok though, which is about the only redeeming quality of these "mints".

Rally mints are amazing. So much easier and more convenient/portable than coffee or any other caffeinated liquid.I'm genuinely so confused by all of the complaints about taste...maybe folks were getting a different flavor than I am? I only get the peppermint flavor, and it just tastes like normal breath mint peppermint and caffeine. I think that most people don't realize that the actual caffeine compound has a distinct flavor in its own right--that's why the under-tastes of most energy drinks are so similar, if not identical. I've seen some reviews that claim the mints taste "like chemicals," but truly, I think these people are just tasting the bitterness of [synthetic] caffeine (which, chemically, is identical to naturally derived caffeine.) That bitterness is almost always masked in products with sweeteners; and if a product is sugar-free, those sweeteners are more than likely going to have a distinct flavor themselves.Basically, these mints taste like peppermint, a touch of caffeine, and non-sugar sweetener. They're really no different than most sugar-free gum flavors. You get used to it really quickly, especially if you know what it is that your taste buds are picking up on. It's not even remotely close to some of the dramatic reviews here.Overall takeaway: Rally mints are fantastic. I'm a field biologist and need to keep everything in a gear fannypack or cargo pocket, and a coffee mug is conducive to neither. My profession is physically and mentally laborious, requires pre-dawn hours, and often does not allow for a return to any car, building, or civilization until the end of an 8-10 hour outdoor workday. Finding this product was a miracle treasure. These mints are a win all around. Highly recommend.
