Do Tic Tacs work with Coke?
I would never think to marry the crisp taste of a sugary-sweet Coke with the classic minty fresh kick of a Tic Tac. But it works! I enjoyed the unexpected but refreshing combo.
Will Tic Tacs make coke explode?
If we add mentos to Diet Coke, then it will bubble up and fizzle. If we add altoids to Diet Coke, then it will slightly bubble up. If we add tic-tacs to Diet Coke, then nothing will happen. A higher temperature of the Coca Cola will cause the explosion to be bigger.
What works better with Mentos and Coke?
Any Carbonated Beverage Works It works with regular cola, orange soda, root beer, etc. It’s actually very cool when performed with tonic water under a black light because you get a glowing blue fountain. However, you can use seltzer water (very easy cleanup) or any soda.
Does Diet Coke or regular Coke react more with Mentos?
Diet sodas produce a bigger reaction than non-diet sodas because aspartame lowers the surface tension of the liquid much more than sugar or corn syrup will. You can also increase the effect by adding more surfactants to the soda when you add the Mentos, like adding a mixture of dishwasher soap and water.

What makes Coke and Mentos explode?
As the Mentos candy sinks in the bottle, the candy causes the production of more and more carbon dioxide bubbles, and the rising bubbles react with carbon dioxide that is still dissolved in the soda to cause more carbon dioxide to be freed and create even more bubbles, resulting in the eruption.
Why did Coke and Mentos not work?
On your glass, there are fine imperfections which act as nucleation points where the bubbles can form and escape. Mentos have hundreds of tiny imperfections (nucleation sites) on their surface. Thus the Coke and Mentos reaction is a physical one, not a chemical reaction.
