Method

Prepare glass

1

Chill a tall glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes if you prefer an extra-cold drink. Otherwise, use a clean glass at room temperature.

2

Add 6 ice cubes to the glass to keep the Pepsi cold without diluting it too quickly.

Pour Pepsi

3

Open a chilled 12 fl oz can or bottle of Pepsi. Hold the can/bottle near the rim of the glass and pour slowly down the side to preserve carbonation and reduce foaming.

4

Fill the glass until the Pepsi reaches about 1 cm (1/2 inch) below the rim to allow room for a garnish and to avoid spilling.

Garnish and serve

5

If desired, squeeze a lemon wedge or place a lemon/lime slice on the rim for a citrus accent. Drop a maraschino cherry into the glass if you like extra sweetness and color.

6

Add a mint sprig for aroma and visual appeal, and insert a reusable straw if preferred.

7

Serve immediately while cold and carbonated. Dispose of ice as it melts and enjoy.
