Sipping it straight didn't do much for me (though not really a fan of straight-up tonic to begin with), but I would have been hard pressed to notice it was anything different when mixed with Bombay Sapphire if I hadn't seen it first.
As far as diet root beer goes, Virgil's zero sugar is the only thing I've tried that I might fail to flag as "diet" in a blind taste test. They make a zero sugar Ginger Ale, too, but I've not found any in my area.

I’ll have to look for Zevia; I’d not heard of it. A no-cal mixer that tasted good would be a game changer in terms of my summer imbibing.
And I guess I betray my down-market origins; I like branded sparkling mineral water but I’m good with just ordinary seltzer. I have to admit that I don’t like to ice my sparkling drinks; it flats them too fast. I like the effervescence. Bubbles on a scorching day? Ah!
