Every once in a while, Red Bull releases a limited-edition flavor that gets everyone talking.
This time it’s the new Red Bull Spring Edition Cherry Sakura Sugar Free, and thanks to our daughter, Nana & Papa got the chance to give it a try.
The question is:
Was it a new favorite?
Or just another flavor worth trying once?
First Impressions
The first thing both of us noticed was the cherry flavor.
The cherry taste comes through immediately and is definitely the star of the drink.
It’s sweet, smooth, and very different from the traditional Red Bull flavor.
But that’s where our opinions got interesting.
Nana’s Review
Nana’s first reaction was simple:
“I can definitely taste the cherry.”
While she found the drink refreshing, she felt it leaned a little too far toward the sweet side.
For Nana, one of the things she enjoys about some Red Bull flavors is the balance between flavor and refreshment.
The Cherry Sakura flavor tasted good, but the sweetness was a little stronger than she prefers.
Papa’s Review
As the self-proclaimed “King of Red Bull” in the family, Papa had a slightly different perspective.
Unlike most of the family, he doesn’t drink coffee.
Red Bull has been his go-to energy drink for years.
His verdict?
The Cherry Sakura flavor is good, but not one of his personal favorites.
The cherry flavor is easy to identify and enjoyable, but the sweetness makes it difficult to drink an entire 12-ounce can.
Papa thinks the smaller 8-ounce version is probably the better choice.
How It Compares to Other Red Bull Flavors
When ranking favorites, Cherry Sakura doesn’t quite crack the top tier for either of us.
Our current favorites include:
🥥 Coconut Berry
🍉 Watermelon
🌴 Tropical
🍑 Peach
🍏 Fuji Apple with Ginger
Those flavors feel more refreshing and balanced to our taste buds.
Cherry Sakura isn’t bad by any means—it just doesn’t beat our personal favorites.
Would We Buy It Again?
Yes… but probably in the smaller can.
The flavor is unique, fun to try, and worth experiencing if you’re a Red Bull fan.
It’s just a little sweeter than what we typically reach for.
Final Rating
⭐ Flavor: 7.5/10
⭐ Refreshing Factor: 7/10
⭐ Would Buy Again: Yes (8oz can)
⭐ New Favorite: No
Nana & Papa Recommendation
If you’re curious about the new Spring Edition Cherry Sakura Sugar Free Red Bull, definitely give it a try.
It may end up being your favorite flavor.
For us?
We’ll probably stick with Tropical, Watermelon, Peach, Coconut Berry, and Fuji Apple with Ginger.
But trying new things is half the fun.
