Sprite Zero Sugar[edit | edit source]

Sprite Zero Sugar, also known as Sprite Zero, is a no-sugar, no-calorie variant of the popular lemon-lime flavored soft drink, Sprite. It was first introduced by The Coca-Cola Company in 2004 as an alternative to the original Sprite for those who want to enjoy the same refreshing taste without the calories and sugar.

History[edit | edit source]

Sprite Zero Sugar was initially launched in 2004 under the name "Diet Sprite Zero". The name was later shortened to "Sprite Zero" in 2006. In 2019, the product was rebranded as "Sprite Zero Sugar" to emphasize its lack of sugar content.

Ingredients[edit | edit source]

Sprite Zero Sugar contains carbonated water, citric acid, natural flavors, potassium citrate, and aspartame, among other ingredients. It is free of caffeine and sugar, making it a popular choice for those looking to reduce their sugar and calorie intake.

Taste[edit | edit source]

Despite the absence of sugar, Sprite Zero Sugar is said to retain the same crisp, clean taste that the original Sprite is known for. This is largely due to the use of artificial sweeteners, which provide the sweetness without the calories.

Availability[edit | edit source]

Sprite Zero Sugar is widely available in supermarkets, convenience stores, and vending machines across the globe. It is sold in various packaging formats, including cans, plastic bottles, and multi-packs.

Health Considerations[edit | edit source]

While Sprite Zero Sugar is free of sugar and calories, it does contain artificial sweeteners, which have been the subject of debate regarding their health effects. As with any beverage, moderation is key.
