Method
Gather all ingredients and a tall serving glass.
If you like a salted rim, run a lemon wedge around the outer edge of the glass, then dip the rim into a shallow dish of salt; set the glass aside.
Measure half a can (approximately 200 ml) of Coke Zero and pour it into the prepared glass.
Pull a double shot of espresso (about 2 oz) and set it aside for a few seconds to cool slightly.
Add the double espresso shot to the glass with Coke Zero and stir gently for 5–7 seconds to combine.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Espresso is gently stirred into the cola without overflowing.
Measure ½ tsp of vanilla extract and stir it into the mixture until evenly distributed.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Vanilla is evenly distributed through the drink.
Squeeze the juice of half a lemon (about ½ oz) directly into the drink, being careful to avoid seeds, and give the drink one final stir.
Taste the beverage; if desired, add a pinch more salt to the rim or a tiny pinch to the drink for extra flavor.
Serve the drink immediately over a few ice cubes if you prefer it extra cold, and enjoy.
