Would brushing my teeth right after drinking a dark-colored drink keep it from staining my teeth?

I just got my teeth whitened and I'm a little paranoid about what I drink now. I love sweet tea & Diet Pepsi, but I've been trying not to drink so much of it because I know it's bad for my teeth. I still drink both of them occasionally though, so my question is if I brush my teeth like immediately after I drink it, will that keep it from staining my teeth or is it gonna stain no matter what?
--------------------
If you brush you teeth everytime after drinking it that helps. But the stain is in the teeth and that stain is absorbed by the teeth and over a period of time they will need to be bleached again. You can cut down, which is good for you in other ways too. But when you really just have to have one and you're really determined, do it on rare occasion.
