Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the glass

    Start by chilling your glass. You can place it in the freezer for about 10 minutes or fill it with ice water for a few minutes.

  2. 2

    Add ice

    Once your glass is chilled, remove it from the freezer or empty the ice water. Fill the glass with ice cubes until it's about three-quarters full.

  3. 3

    Pour Diet Coke

    Open a can of Diet Coke and carefully pour it over the ice, allowing the carbonation to settle before adding more to avoid overflow.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Take a lemon wedge and squeeze a bit of juice into the Diet Coke for added flavor. You can drop the wedge into the glass for garnish.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Diet Coke!
