Grilled salmon + asparagus would be a huge hit... extra points if you nail the asparagus induced rancid smelling urine multiple hours after ingesting it

Peach Rings I can get dow with.
Cherry Limeade - I was obsessed with Alphamine version of this flavor. Very refreshing.
I'd also like to see a dye free version.

Wow! Boy I feel stupid. Just scrolled to the bottom and saw in the similar threads there is already a pink lemonade
And the flavoring is dead on. You don’t even know your not having real lemonade.

I had the sparta burner which comes in "cold-brewed coffee" flavor and it was a great morning drink.

But what if you use hot water?

Hydra burn I think it was called

It was even better ha. I use hot water in a lot of my drinks just to warm myself up. It actually makes most flavors stronger so it’s great (even sweet/fruity flavors - do this a lot with bcaas in the afternoon)

We already have a pink lemonade flavor and it tastes fantastic
(edit - was going through replying getting caught up; saw further down that you realized there was a Pink Lemonade)
I love Gushers candy. That is one of the reasons my summertime diet is doomed bc anytime I take the kids on vacation, it involves family sized boxes of gushers haha.

I like them both. With the Blue Raspberry, there are two very different directions you can go with that flavor - sour or more ICEE like. In this case, we went the direction of making it taste more like an ICEE because it and Pink Lemonade were the first two flavors and Pink Lemonade has a bite to it so we wanted to offer one for the people that didn't like sour. With that said, I myself would still love to offer a Sour Blue Raspberry flavor one day.
To anyone reading, the Pina Colada and Black Cherry were flavors in the original Focus XT before we upgraded the formula last year. Black Cherry may be brought back in the future. Pina Colada Focus XT, just like Pina Coladas in general, was a flavor that some people absolutely loved and some people it just wasn't for them. We did try some flavor samples of Pina Colada on the new version and it may be brought back. With Pina Colada, there is no pleasing everyone either because some people think more of Pineapple flavor and some more of Coconut.

From what I recall I got a lot more coconut out of it and would have preferred more pineapple. But like you said can’t please everyone there, and the flavor was not bad by any means I’d rate it pretty neutral, but I definitely enjoyed all the other flavors more. From what I remember it did mix great with the pink lemonade though!
Would love a sour blue raspberry but probably makes more sense to offer more diversity though. I’m going to use this opportunity to once again mention that sour peach rings would be an incredible option!

We may have something Cherry Limeade coming out in the future. I like Strawberry Limeade myself; or just plain Limeade because doing plain Limeade allows you to mix a half scoop with other flavors.
You might be a very very happy person in the near future.

I agree, I tried the Pina Colada as I enjoy regular Pina Coladas on vacation and of the like. However, I quickly found out I am not a fan of coconut flavored supplements. I enjoy Pineapple and tropical fruits, but it wasn't for me like you said it wasn't for others. Still finished my tub though!

I love me some cherry limeade, I do like the sound of regular though. Specially if black cherry makes a return. Could mix them.

I had forgotten the name but do remember it now haha.
I love the soda type flavors but they are hard to get right bc of the carbonation aspect.

As candy corn isn’t a thing in the UK, how would you describe the flavour? I’m eyeing up Focus XT and I know this was a popular flavour
sns8778
Board Sponsor
I think that's why the flavor is so popular there because it allows people in the UK to finally try Candy Corn haha.
I honestly don't know how to describe Candy Corn as a flavor because as an American, Focus XT Candy Corn tastes literally just like Candy Corn; I've never really thought about this before haha, but I truly have no idea what to convey in terms of what the Candy Corn flavor tastes like. I would be curious to hear others opinions on this haha.

I don’t know about others but, it sounds weird to us from the other side of the pond.
We have our corn on a cob with butter
Not as a sweet treat

Can you make carbonated focus xt that tastes like Coca cola or Pepsi?

Candy Corn definitely doesn't taste like corn on the cob with butter haha.
This got me so curious that I made myself a Candy Corn Focus XT and I still don't know how to explain it haha. Maybe a bit of orange, a bit of vanilla, and heck, I'm still not even sure if I'm explaining it right.

Only one way to find out - gonna order this week.
Got 2 bottles of Joint XT coming in too for my mother in law.
First time buying SNS products (I think)

Soda flavors taste weird when they aren't carbonated. But then when we've tried adding a carbonated aspect, they either tend to have an aftertaste or taste 'flat' within a few moments of mixing. We are working on it. We've tried grape soda, orange cream soda, and cherry cola. They didn't suck but they weren't up to our standards so they're still works in progress.

Nice, it is a game changer I got my dad hooked on it before it was cissus but he loves joint supportXT more

My dad uses flex and loves it but the MIL won’t use it as it’s too many tablets in one go, plus the ingredients in Joint XT seem more apt as she has mild osteoarthritis

Ok this makes more sense because I also thought it was a corn on the cob type of thing and couldn’t understand why anyone would want that as a flavour

Some flavours that would work really well in whey:
Peppermint snaps (chocolate peppermint)
Maple syrup & Pancake
Jammy Dodger (one for the British & Irish crowd)
Chocolate peanut (think snickers)

The origin of the Candy Corn didn't have anything to do with the taste of corn itself. Now they have different shapes but it was originally shaped like corn to meet the Halloween/Thanksgiving time candy theme here in the US. It then expanded to pumpkin shapes and different types of shapes.
It was originally going to be a limited flavor only but the reason we've kept it around in small batch sizes has been because international customers have seemed to love it so much. Something I've thought about is trying to find and work on international flavors that aren't popular in the US and offer them here in the US to give people a chance to try things like that too. Just an idea for now but think it would be cool.
PS... I love Focus XT Candy Corn and hate corn flavor itself (Besides popcorn).

Re flavours for focus XT, a company here in the UK (bulk powders) have nailed the cherry coke flavouring for one of their pre-workouts. It’s ace.

I’m pretty happy with blue raspberry and rocket pop. Blue raspberry with crushed ice is the bees knees
Any flavours I can make into a slush is good by me.
Absolutely agree. I like taking the Blue Raspberry or Pink Lemonade and mixing them and putting them in freezer until they're half frozen. I did that for my daughter during the school year too and she loves them.
Another interesting thing is to make Focus XT ice cubes.
