Spike shooter is a very potent energy supplement. It was made available in pill-form before being marketed as a ready to drink "High Speed Energy Drink". In addition to the original flavor, "'Quila Lime" as well as a new "Orange Gold" are now available in both the Shooter size (8.4 oz) and the larger, 16 oz. Shotgun size. The recently introduced "Lemon Slice" replaces the "'Quila Lime" flavor for the Shotgun and Doubleshot variants.
Spike Shotgun's energy formula is of a reduced concentration and replaces the
yohimbe withBeta-alanine . A concentrated version of this formula is available in the Spike Double Shot, a 2 oz. energy shot.References
