You’ve probably seen it – that gorgeous layered drink with a bright red, blue or green soda combination. It’s a total Instagram favorite, and it’s officially known as a “dirty soda.” But what exactly is a dirty soda? What makes Sodaddy’s dirty soda so irresistible? Let’s break it down.
The Basics: A Refreshing Combination
A Sodaddy dirty soda is a simple, eye-catching beverage that’s built around a few key components: soda and flavored syrups, purées or creams. We’ve all seen versions of a “dirty soda” in root beer floats, Coke floats, soda companies selling your favorite soda with a twist of lime or touch of cherry flavor. The beauty of a dirty soda is its incredible versatility and Sodaddy offers the highest quality and tastiest recipes available!
The Layers & Variations
The layering effect is what truly makes a Sodaddy dirty soda so appealing. The colorful syrups, purées and creams are denser than the soda, so they sink to the bottom, creating beautiful distinct layers. Here’s how our customer favorite, Churro Rico, is made:
- Bottom Layer: delicious and creamy dulce de leche is layered on the bottom and around the side of the cup, then add the ice
- Middle Layer: slowly pour in your choice of Coke or Dr. Pepper then give a generous dollop of Brown Sugar Cinnamon syrup
- Top Layer: swirl on a big mountain of whipped cream and drizzle more dulce de leche over the whipped cream
No wonder it’s a crowd favorite!
Beyond the Basics: Flavor Twists
While the classic grenadine dirty soda is a staple, there’s a whole world of flavor variations you can explore:
- Water Refreshers: if you’re not a big fan of soda, we offer light and delicious water based refreshers that have a hint of sweet, fresh flavors.
