Abstract in brief

  • Mixing alcohol with energy drinks increases health risks, particularly among young and underage drinkers, leading to behaviors such as binge drinking and impaired driving.
  • Laboratory studies show that these mixed beverages can alter perceptions of intoxication, making individuals feel less drunk and more energized, which can encourage increased alcohol consumption.
