A Dirty Dr Pepper is a creamy, fizzy, and refreshing drink made by combining Dr Pepper soda with coconut syrup (or coconut creamer), lime juice, and half and half or a similar creamer.
How to Make a Dirty Dr Pepper
- Fill a glass with ice.
- Add a splash of coconut syrup.
- Pour in chilled Dr Pepper about halfway.
- Stir lightly and then fill the glass almost to the top with more Dr Pepper, leaving some space.
- Add a splash of half and half (or coconut creamer) to "dirty" the drink with creamy swirls.
- Optionally, squeeze fresh lime juice into the drink and stir gently.
- Serve immediately for best fizz and enjoy!
Ingredient Variations
- Use Diet Dr Pepper or regular Dr Pepper.
- Coconut syrup or vanilla syrup can be used for flavoring.
- Half and half, heavy cream, milk, or coconut creamer can be used depending on creaminess preference.
- Fresh lime juice adds a nice citrus kick.
- Ice can be regular, crushed, or pebble ice.
This drink tastes like a richer, creamier soda float with tropical notes from coconut and lime, making it a delightful and indulgent treat.
