Drink

12 fl oz Diet Coca-Cola (chilled)6 pieces Ice cubes1 piece Fresh lime wedge (optional)1 piece Mint sprig (optional)

Tools

1 piece Highball or Collins glass1 piece Bar spoon (or regular spoon)1 piece Bottle or can opener (if needed)

Method

Drink

Chill glass (optional)

Place the glass in the freezer for 10–15 minutes or fill it with ice and cold water for 2–3 minutes, then discard the water. Chilling the glass keeps the drink colder longer.

Fill with ice

Add 5–6 ice cubes to the chilled glass. If you prefer less dilution, use large ice cubes or an ice sphere.

Pour Diet Coke

Slowly pour 12 fl oz of chilled Diet Coca-Cola down the side of the glass over the ice to preserve carbonation and reduce foaming.

Garnish (optional)

If desired, squeeze a lime wedge lightly over the drink, drop the wedge into the glass, and/or tuck a mint sprig along the side for aroma. Stir gently once with a bar spoon to combine.

Serve immediately with a straw or without. Enjoy cold.

Tools

Use the bottle or can opener if the container requires opening. Use a bar spoon to gently stir after garnishing if desired.
