Is there a low calorie, aspartame and sucralose free drink out there?
The Mexican Coca-cola is sweetened with cane sugar (not high-fructose corn syrup). You can buy it at Mexican grocery stores across the U.S. (or just do a Google search and order some off eBay or something). Natural sugar in small, conservative quantities can’t be beat and isn’t all that bad for you (not any worse systemically than the caffeine that’s in everything, anyway).

some flavored water… look for ones that have citric acid or you could try organic foods.. they sometimes have things that are better for you as far as sweetner also try something (not sure if it is in drinks but you can buy it as is) called stevia.. it is a plant derived sweetner and is usually with either the sugar products or i find it sometimes with the tea bags…. i have never had it in anything…. my mom uses it though and she says it is pretty good or you could jsut drink stuff with spledna…..better than aspertame… but i think its sucralose.. i dunno…. just use them spraingly or good old fashioned h2o!
