There drinks provide you with massive amounts of energy before your lift. You may go in feeling unmotivated, tired and lazy but by the time you've chugged your drink you will be ready to push some weight.
These drinks also help to open (vasodilate) your veins. What this does is open up your body's blood traveling system. This means more blood with be pushed to your muscles while you are working them and in turn will help them look, and feel bigger. It also means they can recover faster and can bring more nourishment to your muscles.
A lot of these drinks have creatine and essential amino acids which aid in the building of muscle. Creatine helps your muscles retain water and makes them "full".
NO Xplode is a pre-workout mix that I would always recommend. It provides you with fierce energy and you never feel fatigue. It is very expensive though, and must be mixed every time.
Energy drinks you can buy at a store like Red bull and Monster provide ample energy and can be much cheaper, and already mixed! Note: GET THE SUGAR FREE DRINKS!!
You drink NO Xplode before you lift but when I get store bought energy drinks I sip on them throughout my workout and it works great for me. These drinks make pumps better and can help take you to new depths in the gym.
Have you tried the energy drink by Cheerwine? That one is called Savage.
