I’m putting this page together as I’ve retired the below from the main powdered energy drink page because I have gone back onto their website and they have no products in stock for the UK. Not sure if they have stopped supplying to the UK, but regardless, i’ve removed them from the page.
Just so that the review isn’t fully lost (they might come back), here is the review below:
Bucked Up
I had seen Bucked Up advertised on Facebook, but the postage was quite high, so I hadn’t bothered getting any samples before. Thankfully, they had a deal for 3 samples and a shaker for £7.98, so it was worth getting so that I could share the experience with you folks.
This is marketed as a pre-workout and contains 200mg of caffeine. The powder does seem quite ‘thick’. I’m not sure if that is by design though, so that it feels more hefty as a pre-workout.
Check out their website here – I don’t have a discount code for you yet, but I’m working on it!
| Taste: 8.5/10 | From the three flavours that I’ve tried. I was really impressed with them. They might not have the biggest range of flavours, but it’s clear they put a lot of effort into making their flavours taste great. |
| Effectiveness: 8/10 | 200mg of caffeine per serving. Similar to brands like Wraith. |
| Price: 7.5/10 | £2.38 for a sample (excluding shipping) or £1.00 per serving if buying a tub with 40 servings. |
| Grittiness: 10/10 | I didn’t notice any grit at all! Top marks! |
| Range of Flavours: 4/10 | There were only a handful of flavours available when I checked their website (might be that there was a load out of stock) |
| Marketing: 5/10 | They pretty much focus on fitness and USA themes. |

| Cherry Candy | 8.5/10 | This reminds me of Cherry drops sweets (if you can still get them). The cherry candy flavour isn’t too over the top, it was pretty much what you would expect. Very easy to go down. |
| Blood Raz | 9/10 | This one took my by surprise! I wasn’t expecting the Raspberry flavour to be so… realistic? It’s really juicy and sweet with a little tang at the end. |
| ‘Merica Rocket Pop | 7.5/10 | This might be one of the better rocket pop flavours out there. I’m just not a massive fan of the rocket pop flavours on the market unfortunately! (I think it’s the aftertaste that gets me) |
