karne_k muttered something about different sweetners, but to be honest I was focussed on trying to get rid of the taste and was hence distracted. Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola_Zero) says it's using aspartame and acesulfame potassium.. but I don't actually know what Diet Coke uses and that page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diet_Coke) was a bit more complicated as there are lots of regional variations it seems. I'm also amused to see there's actually more caffeine in Coke Zero than regular coke (34.5 vs 35mg).
