Xtra Sharp

My good friend Rinda got me started on this energy tonic called Xtra Sharp. It’s an all-natural blend of herbs and minerals that acts as an energy booster. It is the foulest tasting thing you will ever put in your mouth. One review I read on the web described it as a “having a deathly ill monkey shitting into your mouth.” While I’ve never had the pleasure of meeting a deathly ill monkey, I think that about sums it up. But this stuff is amazing. It helps clear the fuzzies from my head and keeps me alert and going for hours. And there is no crash when it starts to wear off.

So here’s what’s in it…

Other ingredients:

Spring water, maltitol, glycerin, caramel color, potassium hydroxide, natural flavors, potassium hydroxide, methylparaben and propylparaben as preservatives.

I like the “natural flavors” part of the other ingredients list.

So if you need a great energy booster and feel like you can handle the taste, I highly recommend it. You can order it here.

BTW, it comes in a fruit flavored version, but I think that tastes even worse.

End of my commercial.
