    Yes, diet or regular, Coke or Pepsi. It doesn't matter. Other brands
    of cola probably work well too. It is the acid that does the trick,
    not the sugar. 

    Letting the soda go flat is important because shaking up a
    carbonated beverage is not a good idea and many tumbler closures will
    not withstand the pressure. I once used coke that was not flat enough
    and ended up with shot and a sticky mess everywhere...
