SiVibes Top 5: Summer Gaming Drinks

With temperatures rising let me share with you my five favorite Summer ‘go to’ gaming session drinks of 2023.


Chilled Coffee

You might have noticed the recent insurgence of cheaper by the dozen chilled coffees. Most multi-buys are any 3 for £3. Majority come in three or four standard flavors, one thankfully usually being caramel – This is the that receives all my love.

Please treat yourself kindly, and do not drink these at room temperature.

🛈 Fun Fact: 70% of UK consumers drink at least two cups of coffee each day, does this mean the other 30% drink one cup?

Fanta Fruit Twist

This classic fruit twist is best served chilled, and makes for a great mixer too! The sweet hit from the passion fruit, peach and orange, always reminds me of the crazy days of OG Sunny D. 

🛈 Fun fact: Fanta Fruit Twist official color is called Rudolf Red.

📷 July 2023 – Home. This awesome tee is from TeeChu collectible t-shirt designs. Be sure to use promo code ‘SiVibes’ to receive a wonderful 20% off any purchase.


G Fuel Crash Bandicoot 

This Wumpa inspired 473ml can is packed with a loud and tasy apple and mango vibe – Best enjoyed chilled or over ice. 

There is a powder version however the can version you may consume two a day, whereas with the powder equivalent you may only have one portion per day.

I hope a new Mortal Kombat range come about later this year in time for Mortal Kombat 1. Be sure to keep an eye out when visiting your next con as G Fuel occasionally attend and offer tasters!

Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse flavors are available to pre-order. Including shipping and two boxes they come to around £78 in total. I am looking forward to Spider Gwen’s creamy, sweet Rainbow Sherbet tub.

🛈 Fun Fact: G Fuel is packed with 26mg of antioxidants – RDA is 55mg!

Rubicon Mango

If you know me, two cans of Mango Rubicon transforms me into a full on hyperactive squirrel. Each can usually has around 17%, 15g of sugar – There is no need to add alcohol here.

This is one drink you have to enjoy chilled as the base ingredient is mango purée.

🛈 Fun Fact: The name of the company is to represent the founders desire ‘to take a chance’, as did too the young Julius Caesar whilst creating his Roman Empire at the verge of crossing the Rubicon River.

Evian Water

We saved the best to last. 

I personally get bored of drinking water, however one day @Cherebi told me to stop messing about with all the other brands and just hit up Evian, and since then I have never looked back!

Evian can be enjoyed at any temperature, and I can easily say that I will drink 1.5l before midday every day.

I believe the reason for Evian’s enjoyable taste is due to the naturally occurring electrolytes. It also contains a great source of calcium, sulfate, potassium and magnesium. These can contribute to assisting with your own mental well-being as well as caring for your body.

We will be documenting our hydration and sleep journey alongside the launch of Pokémon Sleep. We urge players to come take part and share with us their journeys too.

🛈 Fun Fact: Evian bottles are 100% recycled, and Evian are certificated carbon neutral.

📢 Whilst we are discussing caffeine, energy drink and alcohol use today, please remember that everything in moderation is key to a healthy diet. Please be sure to read and research products before indulging – Seek advice from your GP if you have concerns. If you’re carrying a plus one, Evian is the way for you. G Fuel carries an age restriction to be consumed by 18+, with stern daily RDA’s.

What gets you going? What is your Battle Juice? What is your Mario Kart fuel?
