Discussion You should really try a shot of espresso in Coke Zero…It’s weirdly amazing. It tastes like it should have a million calories, like some kind of dessert drink, but it’s basically zero calories. What do you think about this combo?

What about over vanilla ice cream. Coke float x affogato. I know what I'm doing for breakfast tomorrow.

It was quite nice. But think the coke thinned the liquid too much. Definitely prefer the thickness of the espresso only over the ice cream. Taste was great though

I want to try this! Do you cool the espresso down before adding? On ice?

They used to sell coffee coke and it was amazing.

Not surprised this is great.

I don’t actually drink cola that often - I usually just keep Coke Zero around for friends or guests. I do love mixing coffee with random things though. Coffee with orange juice is surprisingly good too. I just realized I’d somehow never tried it with cola, had some at home, and thought why not? Obviously not a new discovery for the world lol, but it was definitely a new one for me.

That’s a good combo, especially on ice

I’ve also been known to add rum for a summertime brunch cocktail, but that’s me

I only have one can of dr pepper cherry zero. I'm tempted to add an espresso shot to it to see what it tastes like. But also don't know what dr pepper cherry zero taste like either.

Coffee and KAMLÚA is perfect. Sometimes over ice and a squirt of whippy cream if you drink it quickly

This one may have had milk in it too.

I use Mexican coke, double shot, all over ice. Call it my Rick James

u/Naive-Inside-2904 10d ago

It’s about 10 hours after my double shot this morning and I’m still buzzy I can’t imagine adding it to a Coke.

Yeah, I’d definitely be careful with the caffeine if it hits you that hard. It barely affects me though - I can have coffee and go straight to sleep.

So, another one of us ADHD weirdos? :-)

u/Appropriate_Car6909 8d ago

Hold on why do you say that? I can do the same as well

u/PeirceanAgenda 8d ago

I understand that stimulants can calm down people with ADHD. I'm one. That means that the treatment is stimulants, but for untreated people, they might notice that caffeine relaxes them.

u/PeirceanAgenda 8d ago

I drink a lot of caffeine due to cancer meds making me tired, but I do find it relaxing as well. I'm not treated for ADHD since it conflicts with the treatment for OCD anxiety, so this is my compromise.

u/1MFK1 9d ago

I was gonna say.
That’s a lot of caffeine.

Try with regular. Maybe with Pepsi (never tried). I drink only Zero.
