Back when Coke Zero was first released, my local gas station switched one of their fountain options to Coke Zero from Lipton Iced Tea.
I was in there shortly after, noticed the switch, and thought I'd give Coke Zero a try. Filled my cup, paid for it, and walked back to my truck. Sat down and took my first sip...it tasted like tea flavored Coke Zero. I'm saying, the tea flavor was strong...not just a hint of it.
I assume it was due to them not properly cleaning out the pipes and fountain pieces, but it immediately turned me off to Coke Zero.
