Beverage

Method

Beverage

  1. 1

    Chill glass (optional)

    Place the glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill with ice water while preparing to serve cold Diet Coke.

  2. 2

    Add ice

    Fill the chilled glass about three-quarters full with 6 ice cubes (adjust quantity based on desired dilution and glass size).

  3. 3

    Pour Diet Coke

    Open a chilled 12 fl oz can or pour from a chilled bottle and gently pour the Diet Coke into the glass over the ice. Pour slowly down the side of the glass to preserve carbonation and reduce foam.

  4. 4

    Garnish (optional)

    If using, squeeze the lime wedge lightly over the drink to release a few drops of juice, then drop the wedge into the glass or hang it on the rim. Add a mint sprig for aroma if desired.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Place a straw or stirring spoon in the glass if desired and serve immediately while fizzy and cold.

Barware / Garnish

  1. 6

    Use a chilled highball or Collins glass for presentation. If you chilled the glass, remove any ice water before adding fresh ice and proceeding with the beverage steps.
