    I hate Diet Coke as well but I like Diet Pepsi. I also like Fresca if they even make that anymore - it's a very refreshing taste.

    Fresca is tasty. Coke Zero is better than Diet Coke. I'm also a big fan of just plain seltzer.

    I was raised on Diet Pepsi LOL. I still want to quit pop all together, but I need my caffeine, and I don't always have time to do coffee.

    You don't need caffeine unless you are an addict, that is not a healthy state of affairs if so.

    You'll just have to try different ones since everyone's preferences are different, but personally I like Diet Cherry Pepsi and other generic diet cherry sodas.

    I works a 12 hour night shift from 7pm to 7am. I am not addicted to anything. I use caffeine as way to remain alert and active, if you have an alternative please suggest it. Diet soda has less caffeine then coffee or other beverages that have caffeine in them.

    Diet soda is so bad for you, I can't recommend any flavor. Growing evidence shows that Aspartame is just awful for you in many ways, just as NutraSweet was before it, and saccharine before that. It tastes terrible and it's basically poison. Google side effects of aspartame, or health effects of aspartame. Diet soda is not a healthy alternative.

    They do make soda with stevia, found in health food stores (I found it in Sprouts), and probably Whole Foods or Trader Joe's. I personally didn't care for the taste but it may be worth trying for you.

    I would recommend sparkling water with 2 oz. of your favorite healthy juice, like pomegranate, added to it. I find it very tasty and very few calories.

    if you don't already drink diet soda regularly, why start?

    Zevia!!!

    I used to be addicted to diet coke, (two 64 oz fountain drinks per day) and I soon realized I needed to stop.... mostly because of things like aspartame and other things.... I was trying to get off the artificial garbage, and avoid extra chemicals that could be messing with my system, I have a ton of health problems, and I don't need anything else contributing to things like migraines and dizziness...

    Unfortunately, I couldn't get off the "fizzy drinks" and I couldn't afford the calories of going from diet to sugar flavored drinks.... So I found whole foods carried "Zevia" it's a line of diet drinks that are all natural, and no aspartame, sweetened with stevia which is soo much better for you! Unfortunately they are a bit pricy... I could buy a 12 pack of coke or pepsi products for $3 on sale.... Zevia can be up to $6 for a 6pk... However that just made me limit my soda intake more and start relying on water instead ...

    But I enjoy the taste, they have a cola flavor, I don't care for that, it reminds me of diet-rite soda, I prefer creme soda, or they have your typical fruit flavors, (orange, cherry, grape and lemon lime) they also have a ginger root beer...

    That's not 100% true. Caffeine isn't really the issue, it's the foods it comes in that are typically bad for you. I've gone years without caffeine, only to sleep the entire time. Caffeine is a natural substance. I've done a lot of research into alternate sources of caffeine....

    As to the question, Tab if you can find it. It's the bright pink can. Made by Coke, tastes like Coke Zero but with a flavor I can only describe as "spiced."
