What is causing the regular Coke to sink and the Diet Coke to float?

Since regular Coke is soluble, it will sink.

Since regular Coke contains sugar and Diet Coke does not, the density of regular Coke is greater than the density of water, causing regular Coke to sink.

Since Diet Coke contains sugar and regular Coke does not, the density of Diet Coke is greater than the density of water, causing Diet Coke to sink.
