I found this delicious drink. Have any of y'all tried it? What do you think of this nutritionally? It contains stevia leaf extract. I'm just curious about everyone's thoughts on this. I drink half of it and share with my hubby about once a week.

    Is there any aftertaste? I've seen it in stores, but haven't wanted to spend money buying a six-pack of something I might hate.

    I really do like it. No after taste for me.

    I think it's great! I found a bunch of different flavors at a discount grocery store for $1.99 a six-pack. I don't notice any after taste whatsoever. However, I don't drink regular sugar soda (or anything with high-fructose corn syrup) so perhaps others find the taste very different than drinking a Coke or Dr. Pepper.

    Stevia leaf is a natural zero calorie sweetener and I think it's a lot healthier than artificial sweeteners like aspartame or saccharine.

    I don't drink regular soda either but I can taste the stevia. I go my self a sodastream and I like their diet cola caffeine free.

    I loved it when I first found it, but, while I'm ok with stevia as a sweetener, I am not ok with the erythritol they also add.
    So sad! I am not much of a soda drinker, but I was hopeful about this.

    i may try their decaf offering at some point, sounds interesting since they use stevia as sweetener.

    I like it. If you want to try the flavors, whole foods sells them in single cans.
