Diet Pepsi Max
 
I tried this out even before I had seen the not-that-funny commercials of everyone yawning except the one guy who was drinking this.

A couple gas-stations where I stopped off were selling this 'trial product' for $0.70 for a 20 oz bottle instead of the regular $1.20 or whatever for regular Diet Pepsi. Woo-hoo!!!

I usually drink regular Diet Pepsi but I think I'm sold on this Diet Pepsi Max stuff.
At first I thought it tasted a little 'funny' because I wasn't quite used to it. But after a couple sips I definitely decided I like the taste better and I've now been on it for a couple weeks.

Diet Pepsi Max is kind of the soda-pop's response to the popularity of energy drinks like Red Bull and RockStar I guess.
This drink has extra caffeine as well as ginseng and even the can looks more like an energy-drink design.

I'm pretty sure I'm a Diet Pepsi Max addict now.

Diet Coke has come up with their own response in the form of Diet Coke Plus. But I don't think this has extra caffeine. Just fortified with vitamins or something.
I'm not as keen on diet coke anyway but maybe I'll give the Diet Coke Plus a try just out of curiousity.


Anyway, are there any other Diet Pepsi Max fans out there?
I'm REALLY digging this beverage.

I like it. Just flavor wise it's nice.

Best energy drink by far is Rockstar Zero Carb though.

You sure you didn't just find a replacement for heroin?

I tried something called Howling Monkey energy cola yesterday. It sounds like the same product, basically. I just can't drink that much of any energy drink (16 oz). I prefer Red Bull. Even though it's $2.50 a can, I like just having 7 oz or so...

Diet Coke Plus doesn't seem to even have that many vitamins...

"Each 8-ounce serving of Diet Coke Plus provides 15% of the daily value for niacin and vitamins B6 and B12, and 10% for zinc and magnesium. In fact the second main ingredient in diet coke plus is magnesium sulfate.[1]"


Is that really enough for people to care about?

It's the only soda I drink anymore, I absolutely am sold on it

It has 33% more caffeine than Diet Mountain Dew which was my previous mainstay

So... ya, I love it

Truth. Diet Coke Plus is OK, but I always lean to Diet Pepsi because it tastes more like real Pepsi - Diet Coke, wtf does it taste like?

Tastes better than regular Diet Pepsi but I didn't notice an increase in my energy after drinking one. I prefer the flavor of Coke Zero.

I don't care about the "energy" aspect of the drink. In fact, I'd much prefer it with less caffeine. The flavor, however, for a diet drink, is excellent.

Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper should be the standard here.
