Pedalwrench brings up an interesting point. Some energy drinks have a lot more calories than others. Hammer's products are especially calorie dense. You might take a look at this chart for a handy comparison:

One of the drinks listed--Spiz--strikes me as a bit too much. You body can only absorb so many grams of carbs per hour. Calorically, it packs a wallop, too, but if you're eating real food in addition to it, it sounds like a good way to gain weight while cycling.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
