- C4 Cherry Cola Energy Review
-
Guilty confession: I’m a long-time cherry-flavored drink enthusiast. I’ll spar with anyone who mocks the syrupy, medicinal vibe of classic cherry sodas like IBC Black Cherry or Stewart’s Wishniak. I’ve stood up for beverages that others labeled as Dimetapp-adjacent. In short, I’m probably the least objective person to review an energy drink that aims to mimic Cherry Cola.
Pros: In short, this one hits the mark. C4 Cherry Cola Energy delivers the fizz and fruity drive I crave from a traditional, full-sugar cola—without any actual sugar sneaking in. There’s a depth to the cola profile here that I’ve missed in other so-called “cola” flavored energy drinks. It feels almost magical. Grab a can now if you want to glimpse the future of this category.
Cons: My sole gripe is the limited availability. C4’s Cherry Cola Energy appears exclusive to the Casey’s chain of gas stations, pizza shops, and convenience stores. For someone not near a Casey’s, it becomes a road-trip-only treasure, which is a disappointment when you’re chasing more of it.
What’s next from C4 Energy?
Honestly, I’m not entirely sure this time! My glimpses into what lies ahead for C4 hovered around a small set: Cherry Cola, Pink Lemonade, and Hawaiian Punch Berry Blue Typhoon. We won’t see the brand’s energy drink collaborations with European Millions or Twister brands gracing American shelves anytime soon, despite chatter from a few dubious online outlets. As brands push beyond the United States, international product developments are frequently shared domestically by mistake (or with a deliberate aim to generate clicks).
