When I first saw the Mana Energy Potion on a gaming website many moons ago, I desired immediately to try it but, alas, the opportunity to do so did not present itself. For months, as I saw advertisements for it, I looked on longingly, wondering what it would taste like and how effective it would be on someone like me for whom caffeine has little or no effect.
As one of those “hyper-active kids” growing up in the 70s, I was prescribed the common treatment for children such as myself — coffee. It effectively calmed my internal fires down from raging inferno to pleasant glow, pleasing the grumps (grown-ups). Because of its lulling effect on me, I was frequently dosed to keep me calm and manageable. I did not, however, mind this medicine because I found the flavor enticing and most satisfactory, and even frequently medicated myself (though I didn’t realize that is what I was doing at the time) as I crawled from lap to lap of every coffee drinker in the family and nursed their warm, sweet cups of java (thus this “treatment” became the root of my life-long coffee passion).
Copious amounts of caffeine tends to have the opposite effect on me that it does on normal mortals. For example, it takes about 10 shots of espresso (approximately 700 MG caffeine) to get me hyper for about half an hour, but then I’m practically narcoleptic after the effects wear off and it seems more like a sleeping draft than an energy boost. The only thing I’ve found in my search for restorative elixirs that truly gives me the desired energy boost is sushi (and toasted seaweed). Thus, the mystery of Mana Energy Potion continued to intrigue me every time I saw it.
Finally, my quest for attaining my very own Mana Energy Potion has come to fruition. A coworker of mine (one of only two geeks I’ve discovered here so far) struck up a discussion with me on break today. She had a bottle of Mana Energy Potion with her and when she saw how excited I was to see it, she gifted me with said bottle. I took a sip right away, so as to partially quench my curiosity, and forced myself to save the rest for when I had scroll and quill in hand and could properly record my newly discovered insight.
My initial thought of this tasty, sea-green Mana Energy Potion was that it was tart without being sour and sweet without being sugary. Upon further indulgence of the small ampoule, I ruminated on its other qualities. Mana Energy Potion’s texture is lightly syrupy yet washes away clean from the pallet and its flavor is mildly fruity with a lingering citrus hint. Its aroma is similarly fruity. It reminds me of something else I have had but, as of yet, the memory of what that something else is remains elusive.
While Mana Energy Potion does contain caffeine, it relies mainly on a combination of vitamins and enzymes to provide its energy boost. While it is brimming over with vitamins, it tastes nothing at all like medicine like so many other vitamin-infused tonics tend to taste. Now, here, some hours on after imbibing my draft of Mana Energy Potion, I can truly say I am still feeling its effects. I feel nearly giddy with energy and dare say it’s affected my mood positively as well. I have not found anything nearly so effective at renewing my vigor and enhancing my mood, and am seriously considering adding this potent potion to my daily routine. If it can have this effect on one such as I, who is typically immune to such concoctions, I can only imagine what its lively effect would be on other adventurers while they are questing in dank dungeons or raiding in mountain citadels. Having now imbibed this potent draft, I believe I must concur that Mana Energy Potion is everything they claim it is, truly Magic!
