Cola Chicken Drumsticks

Indulge in the rich, savory-sweet flavors of this irresistible Cola-Braised Pig’s Trotters—a dish that transforms humble ingredients into a melt-in-your-mouth delicacy. The pig’s trotters are first marinated with aromatic ginger and cooking wine to remove any gaminess, then expertly seared to render out excess fat. The magic happens when cola joins the simmering broth, infusing the meat with a caramelized depth and tenderizing it to perfection. Enhanced with scallions, ginger, and a balance of soy sauce, sugar, and salt, this dish boasts a glossy, sticky glaze that’s both sweet and umami-rich. Quick yet deeply flavorful, this recipe delivers fall-off-the-bone tenderness with an unexpected twist. Perfect for adventurous food lovers craving a unique take on classic braised pork!
