coke
Processed coal residue
Coke is the solid carbon residue left after coal is heated to drive off gases and tar.

To coke coal is to convert it through this heating process.
Coke also serves as informal shorthand for cocaine: He was caught with coke in his pocket. (Capitalized Coke is the soft drink.)
