Hi Carran, i agree with Hazel with the ginger and coke, in fact, i dilute them because they are too sweet for me and taste just as good, i even changed from drinking lager to drinking real ales as they are less gassy. 
Good luck.

Its sometimes not easy but its worth it !
Sorry Carran, I'm not much help here. I'm still mainly drinking water months on but half always preferred more water than other drinks. I've had some fizzy drinks, but had to stir them to flatten them a bit to start. I have the odd herbal tea just for aifferent taste. I get on fine with hot chocolate (I didp pastries in to soften for a treat), well lukewarm chocolate 
. I have Altrajuice apple half and half with water. Its thicker than normal apple juice but has all the nutrition of an Ensure without the milk.
Please share anything that works, I crave flavour some days but can never think of something that appeals 
Yes all the diet fizzies are OK but not too much as they all contain carbonic acid which is not good for teeth. For months Diet Coke was the only thing that seemed to slake my thirst. The first taste that really came back was proper coffee....hence the title of the blog
