Cactus juice "Elements Rain"


I've looked in stores several times all over the place for this product only to find that most stores have stopped carrying it. I've also looked on the internet and snapple still has the site up so I'm wondering if it got discontinued or what happened. People have claimed on the internet that it has been "discontinued due to poor marketing" but I'm not sure I want to believe that.
Rumours can easily be started over the web.
Are there any other cactus juice products out there I could possibly try? I tried a blue monster the other day It was really sour but only 20 calories in the whole can. Me and my girlfriend also tried Loca Mocha. Which was fairly good taste just like any other iced coffee.
The elements energy drink is produced by the same people that make snapple which is probably why it's so good. When i first tried this it was only a dollar then like a week later after it became popular in my town it went up to 1.69 plus sales tax. That made me not buy it as much but every now and then I would spend the extra money.
They have many other elements energy drinks which you might've tried and you can find the list of them here. One thing i'd like to point out is the unique aluminum shaped bottle. They stated that people with "action packed lives could take the bottle anywhere with ease" It's much better than snapples regular glass bottles.
If your going on a bike ride or a trip or some sort I could imagine that you wouldn't want to bring your liquids/food in anything breakable. I'm glad they thought of that.
If you have comments, suggestions, thoughts, or you would like to me about other energy drinks available feel free to ask and tell. I would like to find some other sort of agave cactus energy drink. I'll keep you posted if I find anything.


I really did like this one for the longest time, they sold it in about every walgreens and gas station you could think of right next to the sodas. I looked for an alternative but in dissapointment I settled for arizona sweet tea for 99 cents.

  2. Three years after this original post and I'm still looking for the stuff, too...

    I have three full cans in my refrigerator. I don't know what I'm saving them for, but they're there. Every day. Tempting me.

  3. I'm looking for these drinks! No one has answers posted about why it was discontinued. Does anyone make a similar drink?
