1
Chill glass (optional)
If desired, place the highball glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes before serving to help keep the drink cold longer.
2
Fill the glass with ice cubes to about 3/4 full (approximately 8 standard ice cubes). A full glass of ice helps maintain carbonation and keeps the drink chilled.

3
Open the 22 oz bottle or can of Diet Coke® carefully to preserve carbonation.
4
Hold the bottle or can close to the rim of the glass and slowly pour the Diet Coke® down the side of the glass to minimize foaming. Continue pouring until you reach the top of the ice, leaving a small head (about 1/2 inch) of foam if desired.
5
If using, squeeze the lime wedge lightly over the drink to release a few drops of juice, then drop the wedge into the glass or discard, according to preference.
6
Insert a straw if desired and serve immediately to retain maximum carbonation.
