Two zero-calorie beverages, one distinct letdown. Diet drinks are always tricky. That fake sweet taste that can either go overboard or give a decent substitute for the real thing.

Simply put, the Yumberry Pomegranate tastes like a diet red gummy bear and the Fuji Apple Pear tastes like a diet green Jolly Rancher. Although I prefer the pomegranate, that’s like choosing the lesser of two evils. I don’t want to come down very harsh on these two, but this they both have that diet-drink-compensating flavor that induces headaches.

SoBe 0 Calorie Lifewater is not one of the diet drinks I would recommend … at least not either of these flavors.
