zero sugar

Calorie-free drink label

Zero sugar describes food and drink products containing no sugar or negligible amounts—typically less than 0.5 grams per serving, which regulations allow to be labeled as zero.

The phrase appears almost exclusively in marketing: zero sugar soda, zero sugar energy drinks.

It's functionally synonymous with sugar-free but sounds more direct and appealing to consumers watching their intake.
