At first I felt like I was drinking medicine, but after a while the flavor just kind of grows on you. So much so that now the taste of regular Coke no longer seems to appeal to me.
I feel like such a freak.
Cherry Coke Zero has become my favorite and I don’t have to feel bad when I drink a couple of them because of the whole zero calorie thing. And I personally like the taste a lot more than Diet Coke of any variety–there’s not that sickly sweet flavor and that disgusting aftertaste. There really is more of a Coke flavor to Coke Zero.
