Heathly alternative to cola drinks?
Posted on 6/26/12 at 6:09 pm

I know the obvious answer is water, but I'm not looking to drink just water all day. I like other options with my meals.
I've tried a few different kind of teas but usually they are loaded with sugar or sodium.
I was recently introduced to v8 vfusion can drinks. I absolutely love them and I'm on the verge of drinking my last coke zero and going load up on these at Sams even though it's loaded with sugar and sodium like everything else I've tried.
Has anyone tried them? Are they a viable option to replace coke zero in my diet? Anyone have any other suggestions?

Get a bunch of crystal light packets and mix with water. Fruit juices are terrible

Black coffee
No Sugar tea
Both loaded with anti-oxidants.

If you're gonna drink what fat people drink just go ahead and drink whatever makes you the happiest.
If you really want to make a change stick with water, black coffee and hot tea.

I'm gonna tell you this now.
Buy IZZE sparkling juice!
it is an organic soda made in boulder, CO from natural juices. You should definitely try.

How many coke zeros are you drinking a day?

I drink tea like a crazy person! Earl Grey for breakfast. Black all day. Green at night. If tea can keep you healthy, I'll be alive forever.

Wouldn't drinking V8 fusion be obviously much worse than drinking coke zero?

1. Boil water
2. Add fresh tea
3. ???????
4. Profit
Okay, that was stupid, but I figured I would join the stupidity at least once. Seriously, make fresh tea and add the desired amount of sugar you want.

tea with no sugar and stevia if you must sweeten. also stevia sodas every once in a while (whole foods). natural no calorie sweetener instead of artificial.

I drink a ton of green tea. Nothing added. It does take getting used to, but once you're used to it, you won't want to add anything. Same with coffee.

Use honey to sweeten drinks

I bought a Sodastream to carbonate tap water then add a little lemon extract for flavor. No sugar, no caffeine, no alcohol, very refreshing.

I hate water. When I started my diet, I went with water for a while but then moved to coffee and crystal lite.
In 27 months I've had 2 real cokes. I'm a bit shocked that I have pretty much given up on sweetened drinks.
I used to drink about a 2 liter a day of some sugar bomb.
You will be fine with coffee and tea with splenda if you need a bit of sweet. I love the lemonade crystal lite.

The LaCroix stuff is pretty good. Also, when I stopped drinking sodas I kind of missed the carbonation, so I would mix Simply Orange with club soda (not tonic water). Like orange soda, but without the sugar.

There's a sparkling strawberry water in a bottle that I get at Dollar General whenever I'm looking to drink something besides water. It's 0g everything, just like water. Tastes pretty good. The more you drink, the more you like em
