After I got over the shock of the taste, I love Diet Coke w/Splenda.
Am awaiting a Pepsi version to compare. I'm sad that Pepsi's lime version was not limey enough, because their vanilla wiped the floor with Coke's ass. Diet cola HG remains Diet RC.

Bastard kin to iced coffee, black, no sugar, maybe?
Except that black iced coffee is something I'd actually drink.
Without the sugar (or replacement sweeteners), Coke should taste like kola bean juice plus caffiene. Whatever that tastes like.

I'm guess it'd be something like bitters.

With no sweetener? I took ita's original question to mean sweetener of any kind, even though she said no sugar.
ita?

DH likes this stuff called Cola Tonic, made from cola nuts, it's like coke but less, sort of. But still sweetened.
It seems like you ought to be able to get cola extract without the sugar, but I don't know where.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Does normal coke have non-sugar sweetener? I figured it was all sugars, and that's what I was meaning.

I think it has corn syrup, in the U.S.

I've never put any kind of sweetener in my coffee, iced or otherwise.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I think normal coke is corn syrup for the sweetener.
ION, I just finished my lunch of a very yummy shrimp salad. Which I made. I rock.
