1 cup (medium) of Iced Cola (240 g) has 98 calories. That works out to 41 calories per 100 g. It contains 25.4 g of carbs, 0 g of protein, 0 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its glycemic index is 63 (medium), so it raises blood sugar at a moderate pace.
Iced Cola is cola served cold over ice: a dark, fizzy soft drink with a sweet caramel-like flavour, commonly made with caffeine. Cola originated in the United States and became popular worldwide, though recipes and sugar content vary by brand.
The bubbles and melting ice make it especially refreshing on a hot day. It is often served with casual meals such as burgers, pizza or sandwiches, and enjoyed on its own as a chilled drink. Its nutritional character is mainly sugary carbohydrate, with no protein or fibre. For a less sweet serving, choose a smaller glass; a wedge of lemon can add a bright note without changing the familiar cola taste too much.

An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

It can. Ice provides surfaces where carbon dioxide bubbles form, and melting ice dilutes the drink. Pour cold Iced Cola slowly over a few large cubes to help it stay fizzy and flavorful for longer.
Large cubes usually keep Iced Cola cold while melting more slowly than crushed ice. Crushed ice chills the drink quickly but adds water faster, making the cola taste weaker sooner.
Yes, you can freeze Iced Cola, but it expands as it freezes, so leave room in the container. The cubes will lose much of their carbonation and may taste flatter as they melt into another drink.
Melting ice dilutes Iced Cola, so its sweetness, acidity, and cola flavor become less concentrated. The drink can also lose carbonation over time, making it taste both weaker and flatter.
Yes, diet cola can be served over ice in the same way as regular cola. The ice may dilute its flavor as it melts, so large cubes help preserve the taste for longer.
Usually, if it is made with regular caffeinated cola; adding ice does not remove the caffeine. Caffeine content varies by brand and product, so choose a caffeine-free cola if you need to avoid it.
Iced Cola contributes fluid, but water is a better everyday choice for hydration. Its sugar and, in many versions, caffeine make it less suitable as a replacement for water throughout the day.
Yes, caffeinated Iced Cola can make it harder to fall asleep or disrupt sleep, especially if you are sensitive to caffeine. Choose a caffeine-free drink in the evening if cola tends to keep you awake.
Frequent Iced Cola drinking can raise the risk of tooth decay because regular cola contains sugar, and cola is acidic. Rinse your mouth with water afterward and wait a while before brushing.
Iced Cola is fizziest soon after it is poured. Exposure to air and contact with ice gradually reduce its carbonation, so serve it just before drinking and avoid stirring it repeatedly.
