1. Diet Mountain Dew – 0g of Sugar

Diet Mountain Dew provides all the sweet citrus notes that you know and love about Mountain Dew but without any sugar. That’s right there are 0g of sugar in Diet Mountain Dew.

Instead, Diet Mountain Dew is sweetened with aspartame, acesulfame potassium, and sucralose. Diet Mountain Dew even still contains orange juice just like the original version.

2. Mountain Dew Zero Sugar – 0g of Sugar

There is another sugar-free version of the original Mountain Dew and this one is called Mountain Dew Zero Sugar. Mountain Dew Zero sugar is also green, sweet, and citrus as well as containing 0g of sugar. It is sweetened with aspartame, acesulfame potassium, and sucralose.

So, what exactly is the difference between Mountain Dew Zero Sugar and Diet Mountain Dew?

Well according to Mountain Dew, the difference comes down to calories and caffeine content. There are 10 calories in a 20oz serving of Diet Mountain Dew and 0 calories in Mountain Dew Zero Sugar. Mountain Dew Zero Sugar also contains more caffeine than Diet Mountain Dew. 

There is one other difference I picked up whilst carrying out my research for this piece. And that is that the concentrated orange juice found in the original is still present in the ingredient list of the Diet Mountain Dew but not Mountain Dew Zero Sugar.

This may account for the calorie difference.

3. Mountain Dew Summer Freeze Zero Sugar – 0g of Sugar

If a Mountain Dew that reminds you of a red, white, and blue ice popsicle sounds up your street then you should try Mountain Dew Summer Freeze Zero Sugar.

4. Mountain Dew Spark Zero Sugar – 0g of Sugar

Another cool flavor that Mountain Dew Zero Sugar comes in is “Spark.” The spark flavor is basically raspberry lemonade. Yum.

Just like the other zero-sugar varieties it is sweetened with aspartame, acesulfame potassium, and sucralose.

The final Mountain Dew Zero Sugar variety is melon.  Watermelon to be precise. This would definitely be my sugar-free Mountain Dew drink of choice – you can never go wrong with watermelon flavor.
