Marinate the Bacon
Take the bacon slices and dip them into the cola marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Allow the bacon to marinate for at least 15 minutes; for a stronger flavor, you can marinate it for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Bake the Bacon
Arrange the marinated bacon slices in a single layer on the wire rack. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and caramelized. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
