Hi everyone, welcome to the Golden Ratio Podcast. I am Jen, G.R. Mom, joined us always

by GRDead. How's it going GRDead? Excellent, excellent. The cocktail of the week this

week is the Diet Cocaine. Okay, I'll bite. What's in it? Diet Coke and Champagne.

Oh, okay, it's Cocaine. It's Diet Cocaine. It's open a bottle of Champagne. Well, yeah, I got it, I got it.

Diet Cocaine. This drink was invented by Tom Hanks, National Treasure Tom Hanks. He is a type

two diabetic and not much of a drinker, but he mostly drinks Diet Coke. And he's like,

I was out at this fancy restaurant. I think I'm like New Year's Eve and they were walking around,

you know, pouring champagne for everybody to celebrate. And he's like, what the heck?

Pour a slug of that into my Diet Coke here so I can join in. And he's like, and it was actually

extremely delicious and refreshing. So I think he went on Colbert and they made it with

it. They got out the Champagne and some Diet Coke and they're like, oh, it's delicious.

Delicious is what Colbert said.

So I made one. It's just like Half Diet Coke and Half Champagne.

It was, it tasted exactly like Half Diet Coke and Half Champagne. Like it's not bad.

I don't, I'm not like, I have thoughts. Yeah, tell me.

If you don't drink, you might think this tastes good.

If you're used to just drinking Diet Coke, this probably tastes better than Diet Coke.

Maybe it tastes different. It tastes alcoholic.

It's technically not a cocktail. Well, actually, a cocktail.

I don't feel that guy. No, fair enough. I mean, neither is I'm margarita then.

Margaritas are delicious though.

Anyway, I tried it too. I was not particularly impressed. It wasn't improvement upon Diet
