Why it worked

The video taps into a trending coffee recipe, creating curiosity and a desire to see if the creator's experience matches the online hype. The creator's honest, negative review and subsequent request for new trends encourage engagement.

Summary

The creator attempts to make a "fridge cigarette" coffee drink, combining espresso, Coke Zero, and vanilla cold foam. After tasting it, they find it does not live up to the hype and tastes like a cigarette, deeming it not a good trend.

Structure

1Introduce the "fridge cigarette" trend
2Prepare espresso using a Sage Barista Express
3Mix Coke Zero, ice, espresso, and cold foam
4Taste the drink and give a negative review
5Ask for suggestions for the next trend

Product placement

Coca-Cola (acts - it is used as a mixer in a drink, and its brand is visible on the can. Removing it would change the recipe of the drink.) Coca-Cola Zero (acts - it is used as a mixer in a drink, and its brand is visible on the can. Removing it would change the recipe of the drink.) Sage Barista Express (appears - it is a machine used to make espresso, but its interface is not operated, nor is a visible result directly from it. Removing it would not change what happens in the video, as the espresso is already made and poured.) OXO (appears - it is a brand on a metal cup used to catch espresso, but its interface is not operated, nor is a visible result directly from it. Removing it would not change what happens in the video, as the espresso is already made and poured.)

Transcript

So I've heard I need to try the fridge cigarette. So let's do it. I'm not too sure about this one. I've been seeing this drink recipe all over, so I knew I had to give it a shot. It starts off with a shot of espresso, which I'm gonna be pulling my espresso on the Cosa Brewer Ultra, which as you know, is my all-time favorite budget-friendly machine. Next, you're supposed to use a diet coke, but diet coke is nasty, so I'm using Coke Zero. Come at me if you want, but Coke Zero is far superior. I combined my ice and my coke plus a shot of espresso and topped it off with vanilla cold foam. Then I'll give it a little mixing and it's time to give this one a try. I live in the capital of dirty sodas, and dirty sodas are just not my thing. But let's give it a try. Yeah, it kind of tastes like a cigarette. Fridge cigarettes are not the move. It kind of tastes like a cigarette. What weird coffee hacks or trends should we try next? Drop a comment. Let me know. And happy brewing.
