McDonald’s brings Diet Coke back after nearly four years

McDonald’s is bringing Diet Coke back to Australian menus, nearly four years after taking it off.

The fast-food giant removed the drink in January 2023, citing customer feedback.

Since then, customers have been able to order regular Coke or Coke No Sugar (now called Coke Zero) instead.

A McDonald’s spokesperson told TDA the company had heard calls for Diet Coke’s return, with the drink set to reappear on menus over the coming months.

McDonald’s removed Diet Coke from its menu in January 2023, citing customer feedback, but Coke No Sugar remained available as an alternative.

The decision prompted disappointment online, with some customers complaining about the taste of the alternatives.

McDonald’s told TDA it had listened to calls for Diet Coke’s return.

The drink has already started appearing in some restaurants across Australia, with a wider rollout planned over the coming months.
