I don’t know about you but I’m always tired. I feel like I’ve had the energy zapped out of me. Although I do like a good cup of coffee, sometimes caffeine makes me feel a bit too jittery, so I’ve been on the hunt for a caffeine-free energy drink to give me some life and I think I’ve found it. Enter: UPDATE. It’s caffeine free and it’s co-founded by, you guessed it, Kim Kardashian (because what doesn’t she have a hand in at this point?).

What are Kim Kardashian’s UPDATE energy drinks?
UPDATE is one of the newest caffeine-free energy drink brands on the market. Instead of caffeine, the magic ingredient is paraxanthine. It’s designed to help with focus and concentration and your body actually naturally forms this compound from caffeine. It’s basically caffeine’s calmer, more put-together cousin.
Because there’s no caffeine, you won’t get those annoying jitters that can make you feel like you’re moving at a thousand miles a minute. It also has zero-calories, zero sugar and no artificial colors or flavors.
What flavors does UPDATE come in?
Right now, UPDATE is available in four flavors: berry, grape, peach, mandarin, and pineapple. It’s worth noting that the packaging is super aesthetically pleasing, too, with its pastel colors and metallic sheen. If it’s not cute, do we even want to be seen holding it? Let’s be real.
Where can you buy UPDATE Energy Drinks?
If you’re eager to get your hands on UPDATE, you’ll find them in-store at Walmart or you can order them online if you don’t feel like leaving your couch. They are $2.99 per can or you can buy the full pack of 12 for $35.88.
Is UPDATE any good?
While many folks are skeptical of this caffeine-free energy drink (“Wow! A energy drink without the energy! What a cool product that nobody here will drink,” one Redditor sarcastically commented), some are cautiously positive. “It’s got an interesting taste,” another Redditor wrote. “Reminded me of some vegetable juice mix or some other healthy juice drink.” Others are effusive: “THEY ARE AMAZING I LOVE THEM…I had to quit caffeine because I started having severe migraines & these genuinely have saved my life no side effects & they taste amazing & WORK.” Check back for our own review of Kim’s energy drinks.
