1
Chill and prepare glass
Place the glass in the refrigerator or freezer for 5–10 minutes before serving to get it nicely chilled, or fill the glass with ice to chill immediately.
2
Add ice
If not already chilling the glass, add 6 ice cubes to a tall glass. Adjust the number of cubes according to glass size and preference for dilution.
3
Pour Diet Coke
Open a 12 fl oz can or pour 12 oz of chilled Diet Coke gently into the glass over the ice to preserve carbonation. Pour slowly down the side of the glass if you want less foam.
4
Garnish (optional)
Squeeze a lime wedge over the drink and drop it in for a citrus twist. Optionally, lightly slap a mint sprig between your palms to release aroma and rest it on the rim.
5
Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer. Enjoy cold.
