How many Mentos do you put in a 20 oz Coke?
Assuming that you’re using the paper tube method, you’ll want to load the seven Mentos into the tube, cover the bottom of the tube with your finger and position the tube directly over the mouth of the bottle. When you pull your finger out of the way, all seven Mentos should fall into the bottle at the same time.
Does the Mentos trick work with Diet Coke?
Any Carbonated Beverage Works

Why did my Mentos experiment not work?
Drop in at least 5 mints at once – too few and the reaction is less impressive. Ensure you use a 2L bottle of drink, smaller bottles don’t work – they don’t have enough CO2 in them to make a good geyser. We prefer diet drinks to regular ones as they contain less sugar.
