I used to be an avid Pepsi drinker. Like a horribly addicted Pepsi drinker, 3-4 cans a day. I'd be all groggy and unfocused, down a can of pepsi and feel an instant surge of sugar and caffeine and attack my day with a vengeance. Until nap time. That is about when the first can would run out of my system. After nap time I would need another one, and another. Each time it was a roller coaster from super loads of energy to feeling lifeless and exhausted.
upBeat! is not like this at all. It has a special blend of protein, B vitamins and fiber
to give you more energy and help you maintain that energy by releasing it slowly throughout the day. I don't feel that *zip* of energy like I do from Pepsi - I feel more levelheaded and I can attack my day without feeling lethargic and can actually keep up
with my 2 year old! Thank you B vitamins!! Also, I have noticed that with the protein my energy lasts longer than with pure sugar. Amazing!
Ok, so we know this stuff works and works really well. Now how does it taste? With only 100 calories I was afraid it would taste like Slim Fast. And I am sorry, but I am not a fan of slim fast. Instead of more words, let me show you how it tastes:
As if there couldn't be anything better about this amazing and delicious drink, it is from Keller's Creamery. They are a 100% farmer-owned cooperative, so all the money goes right in the pockets of the hard working farmers that produce it. Oh yeah!
This is sold exclusively at HyVee. We just got one in our town a couple months ago - I am off to buy more, my samples are running out! If you have a HyVee near you go to UpBeatenergy.com for a coupon for 55 cents off!
I received some samples of upBeat for my review and every single word is my honest opinion.

YUM! :)That is so cute when you say that at the end! Excellent review!
Yum-o :) I love Caramel ... and chocolate... and energy! I'm definitely gonna have to check that out!
Sounds like some good stuff! Too bad I don't have a HyVee around here.
It sounds like something this Baby Boomer could use! I've never heard of HyVee though and doubt there's any in New England. I'm all for promoting cooperative farming though!

I could totally use some energy right now! This stuff sounds delish! No HyVee here though..
I don't drink coffee or any kind of pop so this sounds interesting to me ... and it's caramel. CARAMEL. Enough said.
This sounds like something I NEED. I am a caffeine ADDICT (big time) and drink lots & lots of diet coke, diet pepsi, etc. all day long. I need something to keep my energy up. I'm checking UPBeat out. Thanks for the review.
