1
Chill and prepare glass
If possible, chill the serving glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes beforehand. Otherwise, use a clean highball or Collins glass at room temperature.
2
Add ice
Fill the chilled glass with 5–6 fresh ice cubes, leaving about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of space at the top.
3
Pour Diet Coke
Slowly pour 12 oz (about 355 ml) of cold Diet Cola over the ice. Pour gently down the side of the glass if you want less foam.
4
Garnish and serve
Squeeze the lime wedge once over the drink to release a small amount of juice, then drop the wedge into the glass. If using, place the lemon wedge or a sprig of mint on top for aroma. Serve immediately with a straw if desired.
