The non alcoholic version of a Mule this energy drink from Monster has a total of 160 mg's of caffeine per 16oz can or 10 mg's per fluid ounce. This puts Monster Mule in the upper half of caffeine content per full can.

Due to pandemic shortages this drink is currently hard to find in the United States.

Is Monster Mule Energy's Caffeine Content Considered High?

At 160 mg of caffeine per can the overall caffeine content would be considered somewhat high but not all that much more than a standard 12 oz cup of coffee.

Where Monster Energy drinks out perform coffee in terms energy is from the stimulant stack added on top of the caffeine. This include large amounts of B-12 per can, almost 500 percent of your daily value.

The FDA's recommended limit for adults is 400mg per day, so while this is considered to be well within the healthy limits, we do not suggest consuming more than one of these daily due to the high stimulant levels and massive amounts of added sugar.

Caffeine can have side effects like nausea and irregular heartbeat if too much is taken at once. Because of this, it's best not to consume more than two cans in a 24-hour period unless you know what you're doing—or else ask your doctor first!

Is Monster Mule's Sugar Content Considered High?

According to Heart.org, the average adult should consume no more than 30-40 grams of sugar per day. Since Monster Mule has 52 grams of added sugar in just one can, drinking more than one a day is not considered a healthy option and can lead to weight gain and other sugar related health issues.

One can of Monster Energy also has 210 calories per can.

How Long Does Caffeine Stay in Your System?

Caffeine has a half-life of 6 hours, meaning that half of the amount you consumed will be out of your body within 6 hours. The other half will take another 4-6 hours to leave, so that means you'll need to wait 12 hours for complete clearance from your system. But this is just an average; some people may clear it more quickly than others due to individual factors such as age and genetics.
