In the beginning full fat Coke
Then for many years Diet Coke
Now I’m two years into Coke Zero

Any one else got any stories

[Diet Coke
Now I’m two years into Coke Zero]

That's a Con

as they are the same Product

Sadly Artificial Sweetners
destroy the taste

I always drink Coke Zero if I'm have a fizzy drink too, I think it tastes nicer actually. Never liked Diet Coke and I find Coke too sweet now

I gave up Coke years ago.....water all the way for me now.
Do still love a Fanta Lemon on hols though (it tastes so much better on holiday) so that's the only fizzy drink i drink on occasion (that's not alcohol lol) otherwise its water only

I usually get coke zero or Pepsi max and like them equally but I still often enjoy the versions with sugar. They don't sell diet coke here so never bothered with it.

Dont drink Coke, but Fanta Lemon with loads of ice when its hot and sunny ...delish

Can't drink diet coke or coke zero as they add sweetners and give me a really bad headache. I'm fine with full fat coke though so that's the one for me and I love it

There is a big difference in taste

There is a big difference between a pint down the pub or a can of coke out the fridge

The drug is boring. You just end up telling the same old ecstasy stories from years gone by in some old tattered kitchen

If you like bubblegum flavour you should try it, legit the most flavourful and delicious soda that exists imo :flutter:

…I’ve never been a coke fan because I can’t have caffeine …but in general I don’t drink carbonated drinks …water is my drink of choice…I do like coconut water as well but it’s very expensive so more, a treat…

Coconut water is so refreshing but the price puts me off too!

…yeah, a big carton here is generally around £4 full price, I think…there are often offers on but it’s still around £2.50-£3 which is just not an option to drink all of the time but I am quite addicted to it…:laugh:…

You could try Coke Zero caffeine free ?

…yeah I have tried the caffeine free in the past but maybe because I haven’t had much of it through time, it’s just not in general a taste that appeals to me…but carbonated drinks in general don’t…I would always choose water as an option…or a squash…

Do you like sparkling water? Pair it with a nice elderflower cordial. :love:

…I like Elderflower and Apple cordial, I often drink that through the summer …but I prefer it with iced still water…I think that I just have a fizz aversion/intolerance as well as a caffeine one as I’m the same with any fizzy sweets, no thank you…
