How to take sugar out from Soda Science project?

Sugar enhances the flavour of many foods and gives people a short burst of energy. It is also full of empty calories and causes sluggishness after the energy burst. Removing the sugar in popular foods is eye-opening. Children and adults alike are surprised by the amount of sugar they ingest daily. First of all, students will read the label on coke and find out how much sugar is present in regular coke. After that teacher will demonstrate sugar content in coke by experimenting in the class.

For this, the teacher will pour 150 ml of coke in a beaker and put that beaker on the stand and light up Bunsen burner. When coke boils, it starts evaporating, and sugar will be left in the glass. When sugar cools down, it made black sugar coke crystals, and the teacher will put these crystals on a piece of paper and show it into students.
Boil 150 ml of coke
