Morrisons High Juice squash and Vimto cordial don't have it.

Most high juice varieties have no aspartame (make sure you don't choose the no added sugar varieties), full sugar fizzy drinks also :eek:

I make my own fizzy drink simply with pure fruit juice and bicarbonate of soda (sodium bicarb/baking soda not baking powder). Basically just a dash or two of baking soda in a large glass, top up with fruit juice and that's it. If it's too fizzy I either leave it a while or add water. If I don't drink it all or leave it and it goes flat, just a tiny bit of baking soda will make it fizzy again. That's is, no sugar or anything (though it's up to to the person drinking if they want it sweeter). There's no method either - can either put the baking soda and/or water at the bottom adding the juice to it or vice versa. Neither the baking soda/water or juice have to be fresh out of the fridge/carton, it can just be bicarb water or juice I've had sitting out for some time and then just add one to the other = fizzy drink that tastes as if it's just been opened.

I find the result of using grape juice is very much like cola imo.

Strawberry Ribena and regular Ribena, I think. High juices, although many of them seem to have added sweetner now. Rocks, Belvoir and other organic cordials. UM Bongo. Regular cokes. Ocean Spray. Most fresh store brand juices. Cracker juice is really, really good. Del Monte and Princes' long life juice. I think Fanta Grape is sweetener free.
Sprite has changed to Stevia sweetener.

ASDA high juice is aspartame free. (NAS) Love the peach and grape one!

7-Up and Orangina (cheap) and San Pelegrino orange & lemon flavours (expensive) are all aspartame free.

Get yourself down to Sainsburys.......all their own brand drinks are free from Aspartame . I buy their basics orange cordial, which is only something like 80p and it tastes good too!

Although they don't contain Aspartame they contain sulphites and I can't have this .

I drink Ribena, the flavoured fizzy waters from Aldi 33p!, orange juice, smoothies (not often) mainly water, hot choc and just discovered Spar own make orangeade and the lime/lemon doesn't contain Aspartame (and i think sulphites),
