Ingredients
Scale
Soda Base:
- 12 ounces (355 milliliters) Dr. Pepper (chilled)
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1.5 tablespoons (22 milliliters) coconut syrup
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) half-and-half or coconut cream
Garnish and Serving:
- Ice cubes
- Lime wedges
Instructions
- Chill a tall glass by filling it completely with ice cubes to create a frosty foundation for the beverage.
- Cascade the Dr. Pepper slowly over the ice, allowing the carbonation to sparkle and dance within the glass.
- Drizzle the coconut syrup with precision, creating a tropical undertone that will complement the soda’s robust flavor profile.
- Squeeze fresh lime juice directly into the mixture, introducing a zesty brightness that cuts through the sweetness.
- Gently swirl the liquid using a long spoon, ensuring the coconut syrup and lime juice integrate seamlessly with the Dr. Pepper.
- For a luxurious twist, delicately pour the half-and-half or coconut cream across the surface, creating a silky, marbled effect.
- Finish the drink by perching a vibrant lime wedge on the glass rim, offering both visual appeal and an optional extra citrus burst when squeezed.
- Serve immediately and experience the refreshing, multidimensional flavor of this innovative beverage.
Notes
- Swap regular Dr. Pepper with diet version for lower-calorie cocktail option.
- Use freshly squeezed lime juice for brighter, more vibrant flavor profile.
- Experiment with coconut cream instead of half-and-half for richer, dairy-free alternative.
- Chill glass beforehand to keep drink colder longer and enhance overall drinking experience.
