Beverage

Method

Beverage

  1. 1

    Prepare the glass

    Place the highball glass in the freezer for a few minutes to chill if desired. Remove and fill the glass about three-quarters full with ice cubes (about 1 cup).

  2. 2

    Pour the Coke

    Open the chilled Coca-Cola container and slowly pour 12 fl oz of Coca-Cola over the ice to minimize fizz and overflow. Pour along the side of the glass if you want less foam.

  3. 3

    Garnish (optional)

    If using, squeeze a lime wedge over the surface of the drink to add a hint of citrus, then drop the wedge into the glass. Optionally add a maraschino cherry on top or on a pick.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Stir gently once with a long-handled spoon or serve with a straw. Serve immediately while cold.

Equipment

  1. 5

    Use the chilled glass and spoon/straw listed to assemble and serve the drink. No additional cooking or preparation required.
