Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups Diet Coke
  • 2 tbsp coconut syrup
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 3 tbsp half-and-half
  • 1 cup crushed ice

Method
 

  1. Add 1 cup crushed ice to a large glass, pour in the 2 tbsp coconut syrup and 2 tbsp lime juice, and stir for 5 seconds.
  2. Tilt the glass and slowly pour the 1.5 cups of Diet Coke down the side over about 10 seconds, then let the foam settle for 15 to 20 seconds.
  3. Float the 3 tbsp of half-and-half over the back of a spoon onto the surface of the drink.
  4. Add a lime wedge to the rim and serve immediately.

Notes

This drink is best made one glass at a time since the carbonation fades fast. If you're making it for a group, set up all the glasses with ice and syrup ahead of time, then pour the soda and cream to order. The lime-to-syrup ratio is the easiest thing to tweak if your first sip feels too sweet or too tart.
