not sure exactly what your looking for but diet sunkist and coke zero are good, also the EAS Advantedge drink is great, 17g protein, 110 calories, 2% DV carbs, & 0 SUGAR!!!
I buy sparkling water, like Pellegrino (I prefer Crystal Geyser), and keep it in the fridge. When you're thirsty, pour yourself a glass and add a splash of juice. Pulpy orange juice or ruby red grapefruit juice works really well. The whole glass will be about 15-20 calories and taste amazzzzinnnggg ^^
If I want more flavor, I mix it with cranberry juice or cran-rasberry juice. I use 1 part juice to 2 parts seltzer water. It cuts back on the calories in the juice, but it's still fun to drink.
I love to add one or two drops of liquid stevia and some lemon to seltzer water. It tastes like a light, fizzy lemonade, has zero calories, and is not artificial at all!
Drink tea
Coffee is low cal (as long as you aren't drinking some calorie-laden Starbucks drink)
I dont know about the artificial sweeteners but I LOVE cherry coke zero and Vanilla coke zero. (hard to find in 2L and 20oz so i buy fridge packs. But they taste great. i also drink unsweet iced tea when i go out and add sweetener.
I agree on the diet drinks like I said earlier, diet sunkist will def give you that orange soda blast with no cals or sugar and don't get sick of it and get a coke zero the next time, then maybe a diet dr pepper so you don't get burnt out on it. Its a shame that regular soft drinks are out of the question being so loaded with sugar, carbs, & calories.
