Cold Drink (2 L)

Method

Cold Drink (2 L)

1

Chill and prepare

Ensure the 2 L bottle of Coca-Cola has been refrigerated for at least 2 hours so it's thoroughly chilled. If you don't have a chilled bottle, place the unopened bottle in an ice bucket or refrigerator for 30–60 minutes until cold to the touch.

2

Prepare glassware and ice

Place 1 cup of ice cubes evenly among the 4 tall glasses (about 1/4 cup of ice per glass). If you prefer less dilution, reduce the ice to taste.

3

Optional lime and mint

If using lime, cut the lime into 4 wedges. Lightly slap each mint sprig between your hands to release aromas.

4

Pour Coca-Cola

Open the chilled 2 L bottle carefully. Tilt each glass slightly and pour Coca-Cola slowly to preserve carbonation, filling each glass about 3/4 full. Leave room for garnish.

5

Garnish and serve

Garnish each glass with a lime wedge on the rim and a mint sprig if desired. Serve immediately while cold and fizzy.
