Method
Prepare and Serve
- 1
Chill bottle
Refrigerate the 20 fl oz bottle of Diet Cola until it reaches your preferred cold temperature (typically 35–45°F / 2–7°C). Chilling can take 1–4 hours depending on starting temperature.
- 2
If serving over ice, fill a suitable glass with 1 cup of fresh ice.
- 3
Open the chilled 20 fl oz bottle carefully by twisting the cap to avoid excessive fizz. If the bottle was shaken, allow it to settle until foaming subsides before opening.

If desired, garnish with a lime wedge: run the wedge around the rim and drop it into the drink or serve on the side.
- 6
Serve immediately. Keep unused portion refrigerated and consume within 24–48 hours for best carbonation and flavor.
