Question 1

So is Pepsi just going to pretend we don’t notice that the og sugar free rockstar had changed since the new year red tab before now black tab 25 cal

Accepted Answer

I’m with you. New new Sugar Free (2022) is nowhere near the previous Sugar Free (2021) which was acceptable since we couldn’t get the ORIGINAL Sugar Free anymore. Thanks Pepsi. :(

Question 2

The new sugar free sucks!?

Accepted Answer

If you are looking for sugar-free alternatives, the line of "XDurance" energy drinks Rockstar makes are pretty good and are all sugar-free. I'll occasionally get the Xdurance kiwi-strawberry and Super Sour Green Apple . Its not as good as their regular Green Apple Punch. But if your specifically in the market for sugar free energy drinks they aren't a bad option.

Question 3

Why does this have 25 calories? og has 5 calories. doesn’t taste the same. i want a refund

Accepted Answer

Pepsi bought out Rockstar. They reformulated all the  varieties. In the process of changing it, different chemicals were added or subtracted. Thus different flavor, different calories. I saw a program about why companies do this and it is almost always that certain ingredients cost more so they eliminate those ingredients. One of the person's involved in product reformulation stated that once a company does this, they almost never bring back the original. ( Classic Coke being a rare exception.) I have called Pepsi and complained twice. I have been drinking Rockstars for 13 years. I am afraid Pepsi is not listening. My best guess is Pepsi bought the name but not the original formula. As a result, they cannot or will not go back to the original formulation. The new Rockstar sugar free tastes like a sickening tutty fruity Grape disaster.

Question 4

With the flavor change this has become undrinkable, when will you change the flavor back?

Accepted Answer

I’ve been drinking Rockstar Sugar Free for over 15 years…the flavor has not changed (or if it did it was only by a minor amount).
