I drink either normal builder's tea or instant coffee, each with a drop of milk, or bottled supermarket own brand flavoured unsweetened fizzy water or diet pop - and oh yes my basal has to cover them all, so yes of course I still have em when basal testing.
 
Good points - for me I tend to have the coffee with my breakfast so any rise is covered by my bolus. We’re all different
 
I was actually just checking coke zero and it has significantly less caffeine compared to coffee. So it probably wouldn't be much of a problem
 
I usually drink fruit teas or very weak black tea when basal testing. No milk.
