I need my caffeine every day, do not enjoy coffee and only drink sugar free beverages. Sugar Free NOS was awesome because it was very carbonated (i.e. not flat) and was not overly sweet.
Alas Coca Cola decided to tweet the formula to create NOS Zero which tastes weak, very flat and has a gross after taste. :smack:
Now I am on a quest for another sugar free energy drink before caffeine withdraws set in!
Moving over to CS.

The aspartame ones taste too bitter to me so I avoid them
I have tried about half the drinks on that list and none taste like Sugar Free NOS. The others are just so damn sweet and I prefer a highly carbonated and much less sweet drink.
Just had a Monster Ultra Blue this morning and it tastes like freaking syrup! :mad:
The FDA is about to drop the hammer on a lot of these drinks - especially because the high caffeine coupled with high sweetness and “kiddie cool” marketing means that younger and younger drinkers are overconsuming caffeine.
I am all for the crack down. I am admittedly addicted to caffeine but I do not overdo it, never more than a single can a day and no other caffeine/soda.
Guess I did to just learn to like coffee.
Lots of choices here: http://www.thinkgeek.com/caffeine/drinks/
Or, consider something chewable? http://www.thinkgeek.com/caffeine/candy/
When Celtling was between the ages of about 6 months - 3.5 years, I gave upand just swallowed a caffeine pill each morning. there was never any way to finish a up of coffee, and hot drinks around the house were just too dangerous.
Sugar-Free Not Otherwise Specified??
