Forget Dua Lipa’s viral Diet Coke hack. Here are 5 ways to level up your softie
You may have seen singer Dua Lipa’s questionable Diet Coke hack going viral this week after she revealed her ultimate cola-combo: Diet Coke over ice, with pickle juice and pickled jalapenos. Gordon Ramsay responded with a “God’s sake, girl!” after immediately spitting out the concoction, and we won’t lie, even we’re scared to try this one. Instead, here are 5 tried and true ways to level up your Coca-Cola.
Sip a kalimotxo
Adding red wine to Coke is one of those “don’t knock it ‘til you try it” experiences. The spice of the cola elevates the spice of the wine and turns a big glass of red into a low-alcohol all-day sipper.Recipe here.
Add peanuts to your Coca-Cola
We know how it sounds, but adding peanuts to your Coca-Cola is a long-held tradition in southern US states and the salty-sweet crunch factor is a clever way to get your snacks on the go and a peppy sugar rush in one.
Do the batanga
Rum and Coke? No, thanks. Batanga? Oh, my, yes. Recipe here.
Eat it!
Not drinking your Coke at all is another way of jazzing things up. Coca-Cola has been used for years as a meat tenderiser, as an addition to barbecue sauces and as a great glaze for hams. Don’t believe us? Just try it.
