Have you tried the sugarfree watermelon variety? Had a solid week of drinking that exclusively after first trying it.

The sugar free ones kinda get old fast for me, I really used to like the green ones (paradise I think) but now I can't stand them.

Similar things happened with most of the other sugar free flavors.

In the end I decided that I should really just not drink them at all and now they're a nice treat once in a while when I need a bit of energy and something very sweet.

Honestly, I prefer sugar to date, even though I know it isn't good for most parts of me. Dunno, those artificial sweeteners are just... they always feel like I'm drinking sweetened aspirin.

That's why I value anything sugar-free which can hold my attention. I know I should prioritise discipline, but given how things are going nowadays... Well, let's say a bit of hedonism has become a must for me in maintaining a semblance of psychological stability...

My brain works in fantastic ways so I have absolutely no idea. I don't think I have, but that doesn't mean I haven't. I'll see if my store even has any tomorrow.

Can relate, though my memory seems to be functional when related to taste.

Thoroughly recommend a taste if you manage to find some, it felt simultaneously fresh and nostalgic (used to have a lot of processed fruit juice/soda variety when growing up).
