Where to store boxes/cases of Carbonated Energy Drinks (Like Red Bull) Fridge or Room?
I hope this is the right place to ask this. And sorry for the bad english. I didn't know whether "box" is right for what I have or "case", or "pack" !
I'm a self-admitted Energy Drink junkie! So I thought I should buy boxes of them to save money, because the stores in my town sell them in a higher-than-usual price of the distributor! (Some even sell them twice the actual price!) So now I've bought Two boxes of 24packed 250ml cans (48 cans). And for several reasons I don't want to/can't store all the cans in the fridge, most important of which; don't have enought space in the fridge to store all of these in.
I keep my room chilly because basicly I just like it~! (Unlike my family! :D) I don't have a thermometer or I would have just told you the room temperature. The outside temperature is about 12C to -4C (decreases to 7C and lower and lower after 6PM, then increases again after 8AM...) And I keep my window a little bit open (Like 30%) all the time...
So based on this explanations, What would you suggest? Will they lose fizziness or go flat if they aren't kept in fridge? ... I'm sure you've understood what I mean by now :) if not, please tell me to make myself more clear. Thank you very much in advance.

Storage? Doesn't matter so much so long as the drinks are not subjected to broad temperature swings. Put them in the fridge at least 24 hours before you want to drink them so they can get chilled nicely.

The precise answer to the question depends to a large extent on storage conditions - store unopened cans or bottles of energy drinks in a cool, dark area. To extend the shelf life of unopened energy drinks, keep unopened energy drinks away from direct sources of heat or light.Does Red Bull need to be refrigerated?
Does Red Bull need to be refrigerated? Red Bull does not contain any perishable ingredients. The only reason you refrigerate it is because that's how we like our soft drinks in North America. It is completely safe for drinking.Do energy drinks need to be refrigerated?
Opened containers of liquid need refrigeration to maintain freshness, so an energy drink that's been opened and at room temperature for longer than a day should be discarded.Can Red Bull be stored at room temperature?
Technically it would be fine for a while. Since it's sugary, and lacks protein, bacteria and mould would take a fairly long time to start growing. Personally I wouldn't leave it opened at room temperature for more than a few hours, since it will be fairly flat by then.Energy Drink - Risiken werden verharmlost
