Many soda-drinkers are consuming “dirty sodas,” a concoction trending on TikTok following more than a decade of obsession in Utah
in December 2021. Just a few months later, TikTok is now replete with more than 700,000 mentions of the #dirtysoda hashtag, most of which accompany videos of creators showing viewers how to make their own dirty sodas at home.
The formula for the original dirty soda, the exact origin of which is hard to pinpoint, is simple: a Diet Coke poured over ice, then spiked with a shot of coconut syrup, lime juice, and half-and-half. Some shops use coconut-flavored coffee creamer instead of the syrup, but the flavor profile is ultimately the same.
In the interest of science — and after seeing about a thousand TikTok videos on the subject — I grabbed a bottle of Coconut Cremeat the grocery store on Sunday and set out to make my own dirty soda. I don’t drink Diet Coke, which meant that a cold can of Dr. Pepper would have to do. I poured it over ice in a cup, then added a shot of the creamer and squeezed a wedge of lime inside.
Taking the first sip, I was a little unsettled by its light tan color, and could still see little speckles of cream that hadn’t fully incorporated into the mixture. Upon tasting, though, it actually turned out to be pretty good! The creaminess was nice and the acidity of the lime a pleasing addition to a super-sweet soda.
Adding cream to soda seems a little weird at first, but soda floats have existed for more than a century. Remember a root beer float? Or a purple cow? It’s sort of the same thing, only missing a scoop of ice cream. It’s sweet and creamy, and makes something as simple as consuming a beverage feel a little bit special, almost like you’re enjoying a dessert.
