my fave twist on a diet coke 🍒

If you’re looking for an easy way to spice up a Diet Coke, look no further. You need a Roy Rogers in your life.

What can I say? I love a fun little bev every now. Since I’m on a mission to add whimsy, play and general fun to my life in every way I can, I’ve begun to add a little maraschino cherry to my afternoon pick me-ups.

I recently purchased some grenadine for at home Shirley Temples and have been obsessed with adding a little splash to whatever I fancy. This is when my bestie informed me of the Roy Rogers mocktail he ordered as a child at The Keg on special occasions. I had all the ingredients on hand and had to whip one up on the spot. Immediately sold.

Recipe:

• A Diet Coke (or any cola of your choice)

• Grenadine

• Maraschino Cherries

This is a “measure with your heart” kind of recipe.

Add lots of ice to your fave cute glass

Pour in Diet Coke

Add splash of grenadine. Start slow and add in more once you give it a taste.

Top with a maraschino cherry. You can also add in a splash of the cherry liquid.

Stir well and enjoy.

What do you add to your Diet Coke? I need to get my hands on some of those true lime packets since I’ve heard good things but I’m not sure they’re available here in Canada. For now, I’ll stick to my grenadine.
