1
Chill bottle or can (if needed)
If your Coca‑Cola is not already cold, chill the bottle or can in the refrigerator for at least 1–2 hours or place in an ice bath for 10–15 minutes until thoroughly cooled.
2
Prepare glass
Select a tall glass (12–16 oz). Add approximately 1 cup of ice cubes to the glass. If you prefer less dilution, use fewer cubes or large ice cubes.
3
Pour Coke
Open the chilled Coca‑Cola. Tilt the glass slightly and pour 12 oz of Coca‑Cola slowly over the ice to preserve carbonation. Pour along the inside of the glass to reduce foaming; leave about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top.
4
Garnish (optional)
If using, run a lime or lemon wedge around the rim and drop the wedge into the glass or serve it on the side. This adds a bright citrus note.
5
Serve
Serve immediately with a straw or stirring spoon. Enjoy cold.
