    I like to make my own non-alcoholic spritzers sometimes. Soda water and just a bit of juice. I tried this first with O.J. since I thought it'd be a good non-alcoholic alternative to mimosa (it was). If you get berry or apple juices, you will find that you need only a little bit of juice to flavor the water. Oh and I don't know if you have seen those newer reduced calorie juices. They're just watered down juices with fake sweeteners added in (but sold at the same price--smart marketing move on the company's part). So you could just make your own and add regular water and maybe stevia to fruit juice to cut the calories in half-- I haven't tried this since I personally prefer the less sweet taste over fake sugar taste. And of course, many people swear by crystal light.

    Oh, and don't forget coffee and tea. Practically 0 calories unless you add stuff. I will make up a few cups of green tea and chill and then mix with lemonade. You can make your own lemonade or buy some HFCS-free (I like the simply lemonade the best). If you want to reduce the calories, just use a fake sugar, like stevia.

    I'm a soda nut too....so my boyfriend has learned to keep us stocked up on Diet Mt.Dew so I don't request a large coke and regret it later...I love putting it into my diary and it says zero cals....I know it's not good for you but def better than a 350 cal soda.

    I was a soda junkie too. I drink Flavored Sparkling Water (they're .68 for a liter at WalMart). It satisfies my craving for soda!

    Also, Lipton Diet Citrus Green Tea. Love that stuff!

    Both have 0 Calories and are great!
