"Low Calorie", "Sugar-free", or "Diet" soft drinks are formulated with artificial sweeteners such as Aspartame, Acesulfame K and Saccharin. These ingredients are more expensive than the sucrose sugar used in "original" formulations, however a small percentage of artificial sweetener can replace a high sugar content. A disadvantage is that they cannot replicate the viscosity and texture (properties known as "mouthfeel") of sugar based formulations and thickening agents such as CMC are often added to compensate for this.
