How I Tested These
Mixed each one with 10 to 12oz of water like the label says.
Checked how it mixed, how sweet it was, and what the aftertaste did.
Rinsed between flavors with water and apple slices so nothing blended together.
Came back to flavors on different days to make sure they held up.
This wasn’t a quick sip test. I actually drank these over weeks.
Top Tier (The Best)
1. Tropical Punch
Balanced. Not too sweet. Not too sour. Pineapple and peach notes make it smooth.
- Flavor: 9.5/10
- Sweetness: 7–8/10
- Daily drinkability: 9/10
- Would I buy again? Yes
This is the best one to drink every single day.
2. Sour Grape
Sour hits first, then grape sweetness follows.
Tastes like a freeze pop or grape gummy. Smells nostalgic.
- Flavor: 9/10
- Sweetness: 8/10
- Daily drinkability: 8–9/10
- Would I buy again? Yes
If you want something fun that doesn’t get boring, this is it.
3. Pineapple Coconut (Pina Colada)
Smooth pineapple upfront. Coconut sits in the background.
Tastes natural, not fake.
- Flavor: 9/10
- Sweetness: 7/10
- Daily drinkability: 8/10
- Would I buy again? Yes
Best pick if you like tropical drinks.
Middle Tier (Good)
4. Blue Raspberry
Sweet with a little tart at the end. No bitterness.
Mixes pale yellow because there’s no dye.
- Flavor: 7/10
- Sweetness: 8/10
- Daily drinkability: 7/10
- Would I buy again? No
It’s fine but kind of generic compared to the top three.
5. Black Cherry
Strong cherry flavor. Almost too strong.
Slight artificial edge but still drinkable.
- Flavor: 8/10
- Sweetness: 6–7/10
- Daily drinkability: 7/10
- Would I buy again? Maybe
If you love cherry, you’ll like this. If not, it’s overwhelming.
6. Peach Mango
Mango shows up first. Peach comes after. A little sour.
Easy to drink long term without hating it.
- Flavor: 7/10
- Sweetness: 5–6/10
- Daily drinkability: 7/10
- Would I buy again? Maybe
Not exciting but totally usable.
Bottom Tier (You Can Skip)
7. Watermelon

Weird peachy aftertaste that doesn’t match the name.
- Flavor: 8/10
- Sweetness: 7/10
- Daily drinkability: 6/10
- Would I buy again? No
8. Strawberry Kiwi
Kiwi dominates. Strawberry is barely there. Sweet but artificial.
- Flavor: 7/10
- Sweetness: 8/10
- Daily drinkability: 6/10
- Would I buy again? No

Tastes like sour lemon. Almost no strawberry.
Way too sour and not balanced at all.

The weakest one in the lineup.

Why Transparent Labs Bulk Stands Out
Natural flavors only. No dyes, no sucralose, no acesulfame K.
Transparent label. Every ingredient and dose is listed clearly.
Clinically dosed. 8g citrulline, 4g beta alanine, 2.5g betaine, 200mg caffeine from PurCaf, plus nootropics.
Clean energy. Smooth focus without a crash.
It’s not just about taste. The formula itself actually works.
Final Thoughts
Transparent Labs Bulk has 9 flavors. Some taste like candy. Some are smooth. A few miss completely.
If you want the short version:
- Sour Grape = Fun candy blast
- Tropical Punch = Best for daily use
- Pineapple Coconut = Unique tropical option
