Jolt isn't any different than any other soda. Just marketing. No more caffeine or sugar that a MT Dew or Surge.
That isn't accurate.

Jolt is almost 6 mg of caffiene per oz.
In a 12 oz can that is 72 mg of caffeine.
By comparison, Surge only has 51 mg of caffeine in a 12 oz can and Mt Dew has 55 mg.
Coca Cola only has 34 mg.
A normal 8oz cup of coffee is about 80 mg, which was more-or-less Jolt's target.
It very definitely had more caffeine than any other "normal" sodas.
(and their slogan "All the sugar twice the caffiene" would be accurate compared to standard colas like Coke)
EDIT and "new" Jolt (a higher caffeine re-release) has a whopping 160 mg of caffeine per 12 oz can.
