Turns out this rumor is TRUE. Was on a United Express flight last night in First and asked for a Dasani Lime. It's been replaced by Aha Orange Grapefruit. Aha is apparently another Coke brand so it's simply a lime for orange-grapefruit flavor adjustment. The part of the rumor not true is that iced tea was not catered.

This was one segment in a five segment trip where the other four segments were mainline. Unfortunately I didn't ask for Dasani Lime on any of the mainline flights so I can't comment if this change affects UAX or UA as well. I would think UA would make this change across the board.
