The Unique 2-Ingredient Bubbly Cocktail Tom Hanks Gave Us
BY JOHN TOLLEY
On top of being an iconic actor, Tom Hanks is also an amateur mixologist, albeit by accident. He created a simple cocktail combining Diet Coke and champagne.
While at one of his wife’s shows, he asked to have champagne added to his soda and the oddball combination actually worked well. He dubbed it the "Diet Cokagne."
Hanks was goofing around when he made the drink, so the proportions are subjective. He recalls sipping a third of a Diet Coke before filling the rest of the glass with champagne.
