Canned Sodas (single-serve)

Method

Serving Canned Sodas

1

Chill cans (if needed)

If cans are not already cold, place them in the refrigerator for at least 1–2 hours or in an ice bucket for 15–30 minutes until chilled to your preference.

2

Prepare glass (optional)

If you prefer your soda over ice, fill a clean glass with 4–6 ice cubes. If you plan to drink directly from the can, skip this step.

3

Open can

Hold the can upright on a stable surface. Pull the tab back until the opening is fully exposed and the can makes a slight hissing sound as pressure releases.

4

Pour or drink

For glass service: tilt the glass at a slight angle and pour the soda slowly down the side to reduce foam, then straighten the glass and finish pouring. For direct drinking: lift the can to your mouth and sip.

5

Garnish (Sprite only, optional)

If serving Sprite, optionally squeeze a lemon or lime wedge over the drink and drop the wedge into the glass for added brightness.

6

Storage of opened cans

If you don't finish an opened can, transfer remaining soda to a sealable container or cover the can with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Consume within 24 hours for best fizz and flavor.
