Aside from the obvious benefit of high fructose gluttony, the machines are also good for people like myself who are frustrated with the limited choices available when it comes to diet drinks, in particular Powerade Zero.

I'm wondering, what otherwise unavailable flavors have any of you discovered in a Coca-Cola Freestyle machine?

My personal favorites are Raspberry Powerade Zero, and Peach Fanta Zero.

Every drink I've had from one of those tastes like 17 drinks mixed in one. They're terrible.

it absolutely tastes different than regular coke. I'm not a fan of flavored soft drinks so I'd much rather a normal fountain drink machine.

This- I love it so much.

The secret is to run a little water or the flavor drink you're drinking before you fill your cup. I've never had a problem

I find the drinks are watered down. Maybe not enough syrup is released.

Those cherry vanilla diet drinks are my favorites. I find myself making dining decisions based on these machines. I'll drive an extra few minutes to go to a Wendy's with one than one without one.

It pisses me off when a place doesn't refill the syrups frequently and half the shite is missing. A couple times, the diet drinks were out and the people at the joint don't know how to refill the sweetener.

Random bump, but I was going to start a thread and found this in a search.

I prefer regular old Diet Coke.

To avoid the "tastes like 17 different flavors" thing, I let it run for a few seconds before I put my cup underneath it.

These freestyle machines are the worst ideas ever. It takes old people for fricking ever to figure out how to use it and like the previous poster mentioned a lot of places don't refil the flavored like they should.

I was in zaxbys the other day and almost blew a gasket at people who just stood looking at the machine. Too many choices for stupid people.

The additives they put are not sugar free. I'm a type 1 diabetic who relies on diet drinks being actually sugar free

Diet cherry lime aid at firehouse. I get mad that they try to be so exclusive with it and I can't get it at other freestyle machines.

Minute made 5 calorie and cherry coke, the key is to let the drink flow for about 5 seconds before putting it in your cup
