In a recent TikTok video that has taken the internet by storm, a man has left viewers amazed with his ingenious hack for pouring Coke without having to wait for the fizz to settle. With over six million views and counting, the video shared by user “That 40 year guy” showcases the remarkable results of this simple trick.
Expressing his disbelief, the man exclaims, “You’re telling me for 40 years I’ve been fighting the fizz, and I could’ve been doing this? Ain’t no way,” as he prepares to put the hack to the test.
Equipped with a bottle of Coke and a cup, he follows the step-by-step instructions. First, he places the cup over the unscrewed bottle of Coke, and then he flips it over. Gradually lifting the Coke bottle, he allows the liquid to pour out slowly. To his astonishment, there is no frothing or fizzing as the Coke makes its way into the cup.
Viewers flooded the comments section with their amazement and appreciation for the newfound knowledge. “You teach me so many things,” wrote one person, while another exclaimed, “Learn something new every day.” A third viewer, slightly older than the TikTok creator, expressed their excitement, saying, “Damn. I’m slightly older than you bro, and this is a first for me. Awesome!”
However, it turns out that many individuals, particularly bartenders, have been utilizing this hack for years, not only for Coke but also for pouring beers. Some viewers jokingly expressed their surprise that the man was just discovering this technique. “Dudeeee… where have you been? That’s the oldest trick in the book,” remarked one person, while another quipped, “Every bartender on the planet knows this.”
Several commenters also shared their own tips and tricks for “fighting the fizz.” One bartender suggested tipping the glass and pouring the Coke along its side, while another recommended inserting a finger into the fizz to achieve the same effect. A third viewer humorously suggested bypassing the entire process by simply drinking Coke straight from the bottle.
The TikTok video has not only entertained and amazed viewers but has also served as a reminder that sometimes the simplest hacks can have the most significant impact. Whether you’re a longtime Coca-Cola enthusiast or a bartender seeking a trick of the trade, this newfound knowledge is sure to come in handy.
