Double the Hit of V! More equals better...right?

Everyone has had 'those' mornings where you've woken up, promptly fallen back asleep through your alarm, and finally stumbled out the door to get to work, school or uni.

Coffee is a great choice for those who like it, but even if you do and just want something different - enter the energy drink, but nothing as exotic as Smart Energy, or LOL - this is V Double hit.

Usually you'll buy a can of the drink, and it'll come in a very small size of 250mL, which is still roughly comparable to some strong coffee, but now you can get something....bigger.

I don't mean sensationally bigger - we mean literally bigger - a 500mL can of V. With exactly twice the amount of the smaller can in every single way, this can means serious business.

But does it taste any good?

thesorehead Mar 20, 2009 12:53 PM	V remains my favourite for taste - <3 red V. Started using 500ml cans when Mother came out with the new flavour. Good to see V picking up on this. In my case, a normal 375mL can is normally just a little more-than-enough as a drink. I find the 500mL cans to be good for sipping over a half-hour or longer.
ahsoka Mar 20, 2009 1:05 PM	Why not just buy 2 cans of V?
TheFrunj Mar 20, 2009 1:46 PM	ahsoka, why buy two when you can buy a single one for cheaper, and get the same amount of drink? -JR
fliptopia Mar 20, 2009 5:29 PM	Why not just sleep at a regular time? c'mon stop staring at me like I'm an alien or something.
ahsoka Mar 20, 2009 5:42 PM	Justin: You didn't mention that it was cheaper than buying 2 x 250ml cans.
TheFrunj Mar 20, 2009 8:02 PM	ahsoka: Second page, paragraph six: "A 500mL can of V Double Hit costs you about $3.50-$4, which is reasonable considering a normal 250mL can of V will run you $2.30." -JR
ahsoka Mar 20, 2009 10:49 PM	Justin: There was more than one page? Mybad!
InKiMo Mar 21, 2009 1:31 PM	V taste's alright, but I nice cold power can of Redeye tases a lot better "yummmmy"...
Elfarch Mar 22, 2009 12:28 AM	Bloody junkies. Just turn on a bloody tap and drink that for free.
plaztik Apr 16, 2009 10:55 AM	I say bring out 500ml can of V Black!!!! HAHA! oooohhhh yeahhhhhh! XD
