If I'm fasting then I wouldn't hesitate drinking water and other types of fluid. Sometimes on rare occasions, our body can get extremely dehydrated while fasting. Thus, there is no harm in drinking fluids. However, I wouldn't have fizzy drinks because they have artificial sweeteners on it.
Drinking only water with your fast

I also love black coffee. I normally drink it with my meal. I think diet coke has hidden ingredients and I don't believe it has lesser sugar. I suggest you avoid that.
I have always had the odd can of zero Coke for the last 2 years and it hasn’t slowed me down. It’s nit every day it’s only now and then.
It is never bad to treat yourself. If you favor to have it once in a while, then I have nothing against it.
I drink only water but not really for any specific reason other than I don't drink coffee and I rarely drink tea. From time to time I will have tea with my meal with a bit of sweetener but that's about it. I usually just drink water throughout the day and alongside my meal. I am guilty of drinking sodas and fruit juices with my meal too a few times but I've been cutting down on that a lot because it just makes me hungrier during fasting but during my fasting period I only really ever drink water.
