What about fruit juice? There are tons of fruits in the world, i'm sure you can find something you like. You can even combine them! I'm a fan of grape/apple juice. Look for real juice, if you see the word punch or cocktail, stay away! It's water, sugar and artificial flavours. ... and fruits are healthy :)

I'll go against the grain with Sparkling Water (flavored). I need the carbonation. Besides with them $.50 for 1L over at WalMart or $.65 for 1L at Kroger (near my house) it's as cheap as Sprite or Seirra Mist.

unconcentrated juice and cabonated water (perrier or things like that). its fizzy and only half the calories without the added sugar

even juices like orange juice and apple are high in sugar, it doesn't have to be an artificial or from concentrate juice to have lots of sugar.

I know you said you dont like artifical sweetners, but Walmarts Great Value drink mixes with bottled water are what helped me get off soda....

One of my favourite drinks of late, probably because they went on crazy clearance here, is the Arizona Diet Arnold Palmer. It's like 30something oz. for 1.25 here so I stocked up on a bunch of those and they're pretty damned good.

I'm pissed, they still don't have that flavor in Dallas. Stuck making my own. Instead I make a John Daly, 1/3 tea, 1/3 lemonade, 1/3 Jack Daniels or Makers Mark.

That must be a John Daly when he's in training because that seems a little light.

The Arizona's a nice one though, I haven't even seen a non-diet version to try but this one's plenty sweet.

I drink alot of Propel. And alot of this so called energy drink called Nos.

Its an imitation of Nitros that you put in a car, like its supposed to make you go faster or somethin. Its good, doesnt give me stomach aches, and comes in a really cool bottle that everyone wants to see.

I don't think antone has mentioned it yet but Aquafina has flavored water now. I like most of the flavors, I'm just not sure of the sugar content off hand. They are noncarbonated though.

Yeah, flavoured water has been mentioned and Aquafina hasn't been specified because their flavoured water is horrible.

i do the crystal light route, but its way too sweet to put 1 pack into 1 500mL bottle, so i split 1 single pack into 2 bottles, gives it the right taste i think...and half the calories per bottle!! hahaha

I drink a ton of unsweetened ice tea in the summer instead of pop or if I am sick of water.

Second. I go through a couple of gallons a week.

I was probably drinking more than I should for awhile...But Speedway took it off the fountain drinks available, and put the raspberry flavored shit on there...kind of killed it. I still have my 64 oz cup if they bring it back dammit.
