You Might Love Energy Drinks, But Avoid Them In Your Cocktails - Tasting Table
Briefly

Mixing energy drinks with alcohol poses significant health risks due to the stimulating effects of caffeine masking the depressant effects of alcohol, leading to increased consumption and danger.
The FDA determined that pre-mixed caffeinated alcoholic drinks marketed to young drinkers did not meet safety standards, as caffeine masks alcohol's effects, leading to binge drinking and other risks.
Caffeine does not speed up the sobering process; while it may make you feel more alert, it does not reduce the alcohol concentration in your blood, leaving you still under the influence.
