flat coke

I have two, nearly full 2l bottles of now flat coca cola sitting in my kitchen, all I know it to be good for is settling nausea. It seems such a waste to pour them down the sink, I was just wondering if any OSers know any other uses for flat cola? :confused:
Thank you to all posters :A

  • Drink it, I love flat cola, it tastes better than when it is fizzy

  • Nigella has a good recipe for ham boiled in Coke, it's really tasty and will give you a good meal, plus a load of delicious leftover ham for sandwiches. I don't think the lack of fizz would be a problem for the recipe!
    I'm too new a user to post links but if you Google for "Nigella ham cola" you should find a link to the recipe on the Channel 4 website.
  • Thanks everyone, very helpful! Was aware of the cleaning pennies etc but couldn't remember if it was supposed to be fizzy or flat.
