Method
Drink
- 1
Chill a clean highball glass (or use a glass straight from the fridge) for best temperature.
- 2
Fill the chilled glass with about 1 cup (approximately 8–10 standard ice cubes) of fresh ice. Leaving plenty of room on top will prevent overflow when adding the soda.
- 3
Slowly pour 12 oz of chilled Diet Cola down the side of the glass over the ice to preserve carbonation and reduce foaming.
- 4
Squeeze the juice of 1 fresh lime wedge lightly into the drink if you like a citrus accent; drop the squeezed wedge into the glass for extra flavor and a rustic look.
- 5
Garnish with an optional lime wheel on the rim. Serve immediately with a straw or stirring stick so the drinker can adjust dilution and flavor.
