Method

Prepare glass

1

Chill

If possible, chill the glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes before serving for a colder drink without diluting the carbonation.

2

Add 6 ice cubes to a highball or Collins glass. Adjust ice amount to preference; less ice preserves flavor intensity, more ice keeps drink colder longer.

Assemble drink

3

Open a 12 fl oz can or bottle of chilled Diet Coke. Pour slowly down the side of the glass to preserve carbonation and minimize foam. Fill the glass leaving about 0.5–1 inch (1–2 cm) of headspace.

4

Gently stir once with a bar spoon or straw if desired to evenly chill the liquid. Avoid vigorous stirring which releases carbonation.

Garnish and serve

5

If using, run a lime wedge around the rim and drop the wedge into the drink or balance a lime wheel on the rim. Add a mint sprig for aroma if desired.

6

Serve immediately while cold and fizzy.
