Energy Drinks without Sweeteners

Trying to find an energy drink (or similar) to carry with me as I go for my fitness rides that do not contain Aspartame or Sodium Saccharine (which I avoid for medical reasons (and taste)). I've looked in local cycle shops & sports shops but everything seems to be loaded with the stuff (or be full of caffeine/carbonation (eg Red Bull)).
I had a quick look through the sports Drinks thread but it doesn't seem to be mentioned.
I'm not terribly bothered about a drink being bitter (though prefer lager ) but hate the chemical sweeteners that replace sugar because everyone seems to hate sugar, but can't seem to drink/buy drinks without sweetener. :?
So anyone know of either a ready made drink, powder to make up or even a DIY recipe that I can buy or create?

Hi5 is my choice, S.I.S ones have aspartame and make me feel quite ill, Hi5 doesn't have it and I feel fine on it

Thanks, going to try the DIY method first as I'm broke but both Nuun and High5 look to be something I'll have a try of.0
