Our local corner shop in Beighton has some....

I could mass buy them and ship them out at a profit if you'd like? ;)

I've seen it everywhere too - walkley, rotherham, city centre... haven't tried it yet though, seem to think it wont be quite the same without the sugar rush!!!!

Yeah, but think of all the calories normal cherry coke has.
Now you can have that delicious taste, AND a chocolate bar, for around the same nutritional value. Yay!!

But will it taste the same?

Diet coke to me just seems like they replaced the sugar with extra fizz!

Nope it's been discussed on another thread. It tastes totally different, much more like real cherries and not overly sweet. It's yummy. I just wish whatever it was they put in Diet Coke agreed with me :(

yeh i got mine from Boots on West Street. The flavour is a lot more like the taste of a cherry where as the normal coke seems more refine but tastes a lot better IMO.

I saw some 500ml bottles in the Co-op in Firth Park centre. Don't know if they're still there. Mmmm cherry coke, can't beat it. I'd not had it for years due to it only being available in the full 'fat' variety. Hope it sticks around for a while in the diet version - they can use it to replace Vanilla or Lemon coke:gag: !

Sainsbury's at Crystal Peaks has it. Note that it's not the Diet Cherry Coke of old, it is Diet Coke with Cherry and tastes really very different to what I remember.

I had a bottle yesterday from Handsworth Asda, just before doing Aqua aerobics.
The two don't mix well.:gag:

I wish they would take the caffeine out of this and other soft drinks. I just cant cope with it. If I have one drink with caffeine in, Ive no chance of sleeping! Mind you, I suppose its healthier to stay away from it because aspartame isnt any good for you either, but I do allow myself a can of caffeine free diet coke a day.

Thankyou! and I did! and it was amazing!

Boots on west street finalllly had some in, although they were nearly sold out again!

I reckon most people want to try it, so if you want to stand a chance of getting some, best go quite early while the fridges are still stocked up!

My review: very fruity, nice cherry flavour with a hint of coke (Maybe it should be called cherry drink with coke?!), but nonetheless very fit, and I'd say on of the best offerings from diet coke!



Note: I can't believe I'm getting so excited over a drink. I need to get a life!

They should ditch the lime and lemon ones and just stick with vanilla and cherry.

They should deffo drop the vanilla and lemon ones and keep the lime. Not sure about cherry. I've been trying to drastically reduce my Diet Coke intake (not for lack of sleep or anything, no problems there :thumbsup:, just the quantity I was getting thru - now I just stick it in my vodka :hihi: ) and of course the dreaded aspartame.
