1
Chill glass (optional)
Place a highball or Collins glass in the freezer for about 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice water and let sit for 2–3 minutes to chill. Dump out ice water before proceeding.
2
Fill the chilled glass about three-quarters full with fresh ice cubes (approximately 1 cup).
3
Open a can or bottle of chilled Diet Cola and pour 12 fl oz slowly over the ice to preserve carbonation.
4
If using, squeeze the juice of the fresh lime wedge into the drink, then drop the squeezed wedge into the glass for extra flavor.
5
Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim or a mint sprig tucked beside the glass, if desired.
6
Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer. Enjoy cold.
