Chef Tips from the Video
- Use lightly salted peanuts to keep the balance; overly salty nuts can overpower the soda.
- For extra crunch, try honey‑roasted peanuts, but reduce the amount of added sugar elsewhere.
- If you prefer less sweetness, substitute regular Coke with Diet Coke or Coke Zero.

Give the can a gentle shake or stir with a spoon before drinking.
The can overflows after adding peanuts.
Add peanuts after opening and sip slowly; use a larger glass if needed.
