Given how much Coke Classic I used to drink, Coke Zero makes life as a diabetic tolerable. ;-)
The company has never commented on it, but the fact that Coke Zero tastes so much like Coke Classic, it's clearly that flavor formula with non-nutritive sweeteners. It's largely a guess that Diet Coke is the "New Coke" flavor balance with the same substitution, since I honestly don't remember what "New Coke" tasted like.
Frankly I'd prefer it if they used sucralose instead of aspartame and acesulfame-K, but that's me.
