Method

Drink

1

Chill and prepare glass

If possible, chill the glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or use a tall glass straight from the refrigerator. This keeps the drink colder longer without diluting it.

2

Add ice

Place approximately 1 cup of ice cubes into the chilled glass. Adjust the amount of ice to preference — more ice will keep the drink colder but reduce the volume of cola in the glass.

3

Pour Diet Cola

Open a chilled 12 fl oz can or pour 12 fl oz (about 355 ml) from a bottle of Diet Cola. Tilt the glass slightly and pour the cola slowly down the side to preserve carbonation and reduce foaming.

4

Optional citrus

If using, squeeze one lime wedge or lemon wedge lightly over the surface of the drink to add a hint of citrus, then drop the wedge into the glass. Adjust to taste.

5

Garnish and serve

Optionally add a mint sprig for aroma. Serve immediately with a straw or stirring spoon. Enjoy while cold to preserve carbonation and flavor.
