Does it form a chemical reaction when mixed with rum? This could be important.

I dunno, I found the taste slightly sweeter than Diet Coke, tastes closer to Diet Pepsi now, but its not bad.
Rum Safe? Nice to know... now if I could only afford some rum to test it myself :P

Most useless drink out there...all pop is.
SO lets see what you get...
no fat
no calories
no protein
no carbs
it doesnt actually "quench your thirst"
it takes calcium out of your bones
it rots your stomach
sounds like a winner to me!!
I wish my grass was Emo, so it would cut itself...

i am scared of stuff with no calories but still tastes sweet. nothing is ever 'free' and i am waiting for long term clinical studies before i touch that stuff..
i mean.. if the 0 calories is a key selling point.. just take the rum straight up?

Yeah I tried it last week, and I'm a regular coke drinker, and I have to say it tastes better then the diet brand, and it's not as dry to the mouth as diet pepsi is.
But as for the taste, I'll stick to regular Coke Classic thanks.

I meant to try it when I was in the States last month, but never seemed to get around to it. Haven't seen it in Calgary yet ?? but will give it a shot. he he
And for those who say they're worried about getting something for nothing (zero carbs, zero calories, but still sweet...), hey don't sweat it - by the time they figure out why its bad for us, we'll all be Al Quaida fodder.

No, it's sweetened with aspertame and something else (a diabetic guy I work with had me check the bottle). I notice a lot more 'diet' and 'light' drinks on the market with Splenda though..

Haven't tried it yet. I'm betting it's not in the same catagory as my favourite, JOLT.
Old enough to know me limit, yet young enough to exceed it.
