Dought & clear, - Ruling on energy drinks

I am from Iraq. We have a problem regarding a drink called 'tiger'
which has an image of a tiger on the can; some said it is haram
because it contains stimulants, while others said it is permissible to
drink. Please clarify the ruling on drinking this drink, may Allah
reward you.
Praise be to Allaah.
After studying a number of medical reports and articles, and the
results of research, we cannot be certain whether these drinks are
harmful or not, or about what quantity is harmful, or for which sector
of people. These drinks still need further study in order to determine
their real effect on people.
But in the light of what we have read about them, most authors warn
against them and doubt whether they are healthy. Many doctors have
advised that it is important to do without these drinks and to do
other healthy things instead such as exercise, healthy meals, getting
enough sleep, and so on.
The warning is more serious for those who have heart problems, high
blood pressure or are young (under 16 years).
We should take into account the fact that there are hundreds of type
of these drinks, which vary in content, and this makes it more
complicated to research them, because what may apply to one drink may
not apply to another, and so on.
Until there is more research which shows the real nature of these
drinks, we cannot issue a ruling as to whether they are halaal or
haraam.
If you want to be on the safe side with regard to your health, and
heed the warnings of many doctors, that is better.
