If Diet Pepsi suddenly tastes different to you, relax!

You're not crazy, and your waitress didn't accidentally put a Tab on your tab.

Diet Pepsi has quietly begun replacing their artificial sweetener aspartame with a blend of aspartame and acesulfame potassium in an attempt to keep the soda sweeter longer.

But will the 7th most popular soft drink in North America lose some of its popularity as its taste evolves?

Tired of boring holiday punch? Us too!

Here's a TY KU creation from Ming Tsai, the Chef at Blue Ginger!

The Yuzu-Acai Cooler has a great berry flavor that's super refreshing. Not overly sweet. It's light as a holiday punch with an extra boost of antioxidants to help get you through the season.

Ingredients:

2 ounces TY KU Soju
1/2 ounce Peach Liquor
3/4 ounce Ginger Syrup* (buy online or make from scratch)
3/4 ounce Acai Juice
3/4 ounce Yuzu Juice (or Lemon Juice)

Mix It:

Shake with ice, pour into tall Collins glass. Top with Soda Water. Garnish with lime wheel.

* To make ginger syrup: Combine 4 cups sugar, 2 cups fresh ginger (cut into ⅛-inch slices), and 2 cups water in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until syrupy and reduced by half, about 40 to 45 minutes. Strain ginger pieces out and reserve syrup.

So, have you seen that Cherry 7UP? Have you noticed how the label says it has antioxidants?

Well, it's tricking you into thinking it's healthy, of course. Why not? Why not lie to consumers just to make more money? Morals are dumb!

The soda's maker, Dr Pepper Snapple Group, is getting sued for making false health claims — because the drinks contain not a single drop of fruit juice and only a "small amount" of added vitamin E. That vitamin E has no antioxidant qualities.

Here's what the lawsuit is arguing:
