The Flavor Enhancer

The Flavor Enhancer is a pineapple energy drink made with sugar, from the PEWES ENERGY Sweet Sins range. Pineapple with its acidity left in. Sweet at the front from the sugar, sharp underneath from the fruit, and dry enough at the end that the next sip still tastes like something. Every can is 250 ml, and The Flavor Enhancer comes in three caffeine strengths, so the only thing left to decide is how much of a push you want.

What The Flavor Enhancer tastes like

It is the loudest fruit in the Sweet Sins range and the one that works best cold enough to hurt. Tastefully extra, as the can says.

On the shelf The Flavor Enhancer sits in the tropical group, which is how the shop sorts flavours: by what they taste of rather than by what they are called. If The Flavor Enhancer is not quite your corner of the range, You Guava Be Kidding Me! and Release the Dragon are the closest neighbours.

Sugar, or none at all

The Flavor Enhancer belongs to Sweet Sins, the half of the catalogue made with sugar. It is there because people asked for it, and because a pineapple drink without sugar is a different drink rather than a lighter one. If you want the same fruit thinking without the sugar, Guilt Free Pleasures is the other half of the shelf.

Sugar is a property of the range, not of the brand. Both ranges are drawn by the same hand, priced the same way and sold in the same 250 ml can, so the choice is about the afternoon you are having rather than about being good or bad.

Caffeine: none, standard or a boost

Every The Flavor Enhancer can comes in three strengths, and all three cost the same. Caffeine free has none at all. Standard has 80 mg in the can, which is roughly what a filter coffee gives you. The boost has 96 mg, twenty percent more, for the afternoons that need it. You pick the strength on this page before you add the can to your cart.

We publish the milligrams and nothing else. If you want to read about caffeine itself, the European Food Safety Authority keeps a plain summary, and it is a better source than a drinks brand.

The can The Flavor Enhancer comes in

The artwork is drawn rather than rendered. The Flavor Enhancer wears the golden yellow of the range with the pewee, the small loud bird that ends up on every can, and the fruit drawn by hand instead of photographed. One document holds every wrap in the catalogue, which is why two cans from different ranges still look like family. There is more about that in One document, every wrap and on the about page.

What The Flavor Enhancer costs

The Flavor Enhancer is sold by the can and gets cheaper the more of it you take: ten percent off from four cans, seventeen percent from twelve, twenty five percent from twenty four. The discount applies to the whole line as soon as the quantity reaches the threshold, so there is no pack to buy and nothing to work out on paper.

If it becomes a habit rather than an experiment, a monthly subscription takes another ten percent off every delivery and lets you pick the day it arrives. You can change the cans, move the date, pause it or stop it from your account, without writing to anybody.

Is The Flavor Enhancer the right can for you?

Buy The Flavor Enhancer if you want pineapple and you want it with sugar behind it. Skip it if you are after something drier: the whole range is on one page, filtered by sugar and by taste, and You Guava Be Kidding Me! and Release the Dragon are the two cans most people compare this one with.
