Hi David, I am not one for soft drink or fruit juice either but I do like Lipton Herbal Infusion Tea. The one I have at the moment is Cranberry Raspberry & Strawberry. Label says >1g sugar per 100mls. Of course I have no idea how that works out and although there is no sugar in the ingredients list it does say 'flavours' which could hide a multitude of sins. It is quite sweet and in your book you say if it's sweet not to consume it. If it is safe to drink it would be great to get me through the withdrawal period. Can you help? Many thanks. Loretta
