Method

Beverage

1

Prepare glass

Choose a tall chilled highball or Collins glass. If desired, place 6 ice cubes into the glass to keep the drink cold without diluting it too quickly.

2

Add syrup

Measure 1 tablespoon of diet cola syrup and pour it directly over the ice in the glass. If using a commercial pre-mixed syrup concentrate, follow the manufacturer's recommended syrup-to-water ratio (this recipe assumes 1 tbs concentrate per 12 oz carbonated water).

3

Add carbonated water

Slowly pour 12 oz of chilled carbonated water over the back of a spoon or down the side of the glass to preserve carbonation and reduce foaming. Pour gently until the glass is filled and the syrup begins to mix with the water.

4

Mix

Give the drink one or two gentle stirs with a long spoon or straw to incorporate the syrup evenly without flattening the carbonation.

5

Garnish and serve

If desired, garnish with a fresh lime wedge or a lemon slice on the rim. Serve immediately while cold and fizzy.
