ELI5: Why does the taste of something diminish rapidly? Example, swirling a fruit yogurt drink around the tounge quickly becomes tasteless, yet swallow and immediately take another sip and it is bursting with flavor again. How is the taste sucked out?

It's called neural adaption. You are sensitive to changing stimuli. Constant stimuli are filtered out by your nervous system. All of your senses have this quality. For instance, your eyes constantly move even when you're looking straight ahead in order to negate this.  Otherwise, your vision would fade just like the taste of your yogurt drink.
