We know of no Gatorade (the registered trademark product) offered 
for public sale, which contains aspertame.  
Although it is possible, as no one on staff keeps up with the constantly 
changing world of athletic performance supplements....and our original work was 
performed some years ago.
Actually, this would appear self-defeating since Dr. Robert Cade, M.D. (the 
original developer of Gatorade), designed it as an energy-delivering rehydrator 
containing a balanced fluid electrolyte mix....with glucose furnishing the 
energy fraction.  The sweetner was not for taste, but quick energy release.  I 
hope this information is of value to you.
               Sincerely,  Brooks Bradley
