Method

Syrup Base

1

Chill

Ensure the carbonated water and diet cola syrup are well chilled before assembling. Cold liquids keep carbonation and flavor balanced.

2

Measure 12 fl oz of cold carbonated water (approximately a standard tall glass).

3

Add 1 fl oz of diet cola syrup to the glass. If using a commercial pre-mixed Diet Pepsi bottle/can, pour directly into the glass instead of combining syrup and carbonated water.

4

Stir gently once with a long spoon to combine. Stir slowly to avoid dissipating carbonation — 3 to 5 gentle revolutions is sufficient.

Optional Flavor/Add-ins

5

If desired, add ice to the glass. Using 1 cup of ice will keep the drink cold but may slightly dilute it as ice melts; add more or less to preference.

6

Garnish with a fresh lemon slice on the rim or squeezed lightly into the drink for a hint of citrus.

7

Serve immediately and enjoy chilled.
