The rule

What qualifies, and how it is ordered.

Qualifies: The Record's caffeine total for one serving is 300 mg or more.

Order: Ranked by declared caffeine per serving, highest first, then by lower cost per serving. Strongest here means most caffeine and nothing more.

Note: 300 mg is FormulaSignal's own stimulant-load screening line, not a regulatory limit. NIH's Office of Dietary Supplements summarizes an FDA reference point of 400 mg of caffeine a day for healthy adults, so one serving here uses at least three quarters of it. Individual tolerance varies; ask a clinician what suits you. NIH ODS source.
