Surely Monster Energy anticipated my anticipation for this drop. The energy-boosting brand was kind enough to rush a handful of sample cans my way earlier this month. The moment has arrived: I’ve been waiting more than six months to sample this drink—let’s dive into Juice Monster Strawberry Lemonade before the suspense becomes unbearable.

Pros: This marks at least the third Strawberry Lemonade variation from Monster Energy, and I consider it my favorite of the bunch—especially since the Monster Rehab flavor has been discontinued and the Blind Lemon hard lemonade edition is kept for special occasions. This latest patriotic twist stays true to the strawberry lemonade vibe: sweet with a noticeable tang. The tang comes from the combination of lemon juice and an apple juice included in the ingredients. I also enjoy the less-fizzy Juice Monster format; perhaps I’m growing out of ultra-carbonated energy drinks…
Cons: It isn’t as sugary in taste as some other Juice Monster variants I’ve reviewed, yet it still carries a good amount of sweetness. I’ve criticized earlier flavors like Viking Berry and Bad Apple for excessive sugar content, but this 16-ounce can delivers a staggering 94% of your daily value. I’m glad many of the other drinks I review are zero-sugar options.
Where might you snag this fresh Juice Monster flavor for yourself?
Juice Monster Strawberry Lemonade will be stocked wherever Monster Energy products are distributed: supermarkets, convenience stores, and those quirky gas stations tucked beside grocery stores with the beverage refrigerators secured near the cashier’s area.
