PBR, I actually drink my rum with diet coke, but the kind that's made with Splenda. It has a yellow stripe around the top of the can. I found out years ago that diet coke made with the other crap was not good for my body. I will give the coke zero a try today. Rummy In a message dated 5/8/2011 1:02:32 A.M.

Mixed myself a jack & coke (at least one) ....because I have run out of the dietary variety I had to use a REAL coke. So it occurred to me...since I know Rummy and others are fans of diet coke as a mixer - I should let you'all know I have converted to Coke Zero. It is made from a stevia derived product that is apparently closer to nature than the regular diet stuff. My wife can't stand it but I find it to be much closer to the original and vow to try it with Mount Gay asap. Give it a try Rummy. Next up, although I am only a day sailer currently I feel compelled to help the rhodes list evaluate and compare box wines as they seem well matched for cruising. -PBRSee the original archive post
