Cravy Reviews: GHOST Raspberry Cream
Energy Drink masters GHOST are back at it again with a new flavor. How does it taste?
If you know me you know that I am a HUGE fan of Ghost Energy. I was originally introduced to the brand by trying their soon-to-be-discontinued Swedish Fish variant and immediately fell in love and made it my mission to try each and every flavor of GHOST energy. While fan favorite Sour Strips has still evaded me, I have tried and enjoyed almost every other flavor in the lineup with favorites including Welch’s Grape Juice, Strawbango, and Iced Tea Lemonade. So whenever GHOST teases a new flavor, you know I am all over it to find it and secure it for myself!
What’s the hype behind GHOST?
Aside from the super fun (and incredibly accurate to taste) collaborations that I lightly touched on before, GHOST stands out from the rest of the Energy Drink crowd by containing both zero sugar and zero artificial dyes - notably at no cost to flavor whatsoever!
Tell me about GHOST Raspberry Cream
GHOST Raspberry Cream is the newest addition to the ever-growing lineup of flavors. After a “Secure-A-Can” raffle where fans could win one can for the cost of shipping, Raspberry Cream will soon drop for a limited time on GHOST’s website towards the end of August and then ultimately land on store shelves nationwide in September for a limited time. (The target date is September 15th, 2025!) We were lucky enough to have a case sent over by the brand, so let’s dive right in and see how GHOST Raspberry Cream stacks up against the rest!
GHOST RASPBERRY CREAM ENERGY
Y’all - this is pretty fantastic.
Off the rip, I am almost reminded of Rockstar Energy’s BOOM line which features different creamy flavors like Whipped Strawberry. I think what is particularly noteworthy about this comparison is that Rockstar’s BOOM flavors contain quite a lot of sugar while GHOST has managed to nail a flavor profile of a very similar caliber without any sugar at all.
The raspberry overpowers the “cream” portion of the flavor a little bit more than I would like but the flavors still marry in a way that leaves a very satisfying aftertaste in my mouth. While I would not say that this cracks my top three favorite GHOST flavors, this is definitely a flavor that I will be adding to my regular rotation of flavors while it is available.
As of the time of publication, GHOST has never disappointed me with a flavor and that streak continues with Raspberry Cream. Another solid flavor. If you’re a fan of Raspberry or you’re a fan of Rockstar BOOM, you’ll want to add this one to your shopping list.
RATING:
Taste: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❌❌ - 8/10 GHOST has never disappointed me with a flavor. The only way this could be a bit higher is if the cream flavor was a little bit stronger and the raspberry flavor was a little bit weaker.
Craveability: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❌- 9/10 The creamy aftertaste this drink leaves in your mouth is really good at making you want to crack open another can. It almost makes me feel like I just got done having some JELL-O and Whipped Cream.
Value: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 - 10/10 While this can was gifted to me, I have always felt that GHOST drinks are some of the most competitively priced energy drinks in the industry - particularly if you can catch them on sale somewhere.
OVERALL SCORE: 9/10
