According to the brand, the ring was made by boiling down Pepsi's clear beverage to its mostbasic carbon form, resulting in a powder. The powder was then added to the process forcreating a lab-grown diamond, which requires using a small piece of natural diamond that isplaced in carbon under high pressure and temperature.
Crystal Pepsi debuted in 1992, but was discontinued in the United States and Canada in 1994. Since then, the brand has rereleased the product for limited runs, most recently in 2017.
