In the viral clip, Dua Lipa can be seen pouring a can of Diet Coke over ice cubes in a cup, before adding pickle slices and jalapeno juice to the mix.
The baffling concoction quickly garnered attention online, with millions of views and mixed reviews from viewers, including Dua Lipa’s own family members. Intrigued by the unusual drink, Gordon Ramsay decided to recreate the cocktail in his own TikTok video.
Upon tasting the beverage, Ramsay’s reaction was less than impressed as he immediately spat it out and exclaimed, “Dua Lipa, for god’s sake girl! You’ll ruin your vocal cords! S***!” The renowned chef’s blunt assessment of the cocktail has polarised opinions among social media users, with some expressing trust in his judgement while others speculated about the secret ingredient allegedly missing from Ramsay’s rendition.
