Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can Dr Pepper
  • 2 tbsp coconut syrup
  • 1 tbsp vanilla syrup
  • 2 tbsp cream (heavy cream or half-and-half works beautifully)
  • Ice
  • 1 Maraschino cherry for garnish

Method
 

  1. Prep the glass: Fill a large cup to the brim with plenty of fresh ice.
  2. Pour the fizz: Slowly pour your cold Dr Pepper over the ice, leaving just a little bit of room at the top.
  3. Add the sweetness: Drizzle in the coconut syrup and the vanilla syrup.
  4. Give it a mix: Stir gently just to combine the flavors without losing all those lovely bubbles.
  5. The creamy finish: Top it off by pouring the cream right over the top. Watch it swirl down into the soda.
  6. Garnish and serve: Drop a maraschino cherry right on top, pop in a straw, and enjoy.

Notes

  • Make it Cold: Use chilled soda to keep the ice from melting too quickly.
  • The Swirl: Pour cream slowly over the back of a spoon for the best effect.
  • Customizing: Use half-and-half for a lighter drink or heavy cream for a richer, more indulgent treat.
