A Coke Zero. We stopped at a grocery store to pick up Thanksgiving dinner* and my wife bought us each a soda for the ride to Dad's, forgetting that I had brought a tea with me for the ride. So, I left mine in the van for the ride home. The high temperature for the day was 23° (F) and the Coke Zero had a layer of ice on top. It stayed cold for the hole ride home.
* I assume this is now pretty common, but it has taken a few years to catch on around here. Or, maybe it was just me being slow. Quite a few stores take advance orders for holiday dinners -- turkey, side dishes, desserts, etc. -- and they open in the morning for pick up. Since I used to do most of the holiday cooking in the family, I think it's a great idea.
