Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup ice (nugget ice preferred)
- 1 teaspoon fresh squeezed lime juice (or a squeeze of juice from a small wedge of lime)
- 1 cup Dr Pepper soda (chilled)
- 4 tablespoons Coconut Creme non-dairy coffee creamer (Coffee Mate brand used)
- Lime circle (⅛-¼ inch thick, optional garnish for edge of glass)
Instructions
- Prepare the glass and ice: Fill a 16-ounce glass with 1 cup of nugget ice, which helps maintain the chill and texture of the drink.
- Add lime juice: Pour 1 teaspoon of fresh squeezed lime juice over the ice to add a zesty freshness that complements the soda’s flavor.
- Pour the Dr Pepper soda: Slowly pour 1 cup of chilled Dr Pepper soda into the glass. Tilt the glass slightly while pouring to minimize foam, then gradually bring the glass upright once filled.
- Mix in coconut creme: Add 4 tablespoons of Coconut Creme non-dairy coffee creamer to the glass and stir gently to combine, creating a creamy, smooth texture.
- Garnish and serve: Optionally, garnish the rim of the glass with a fresh lime circle about ⅛ to ¼ inch thick. Serve the drink with a straw for easy enjoyment.
Notes
- Use nugget ice for the best texture and chill.
- Be careful pouring the soda slowly to avoid excessive foam.
- The coconut creme adds a dairy-free creamy element, but you can adjust quantity to taste.
- The lime garnish is optional but adds visual appeal and extra aroma.
- Serve immediately for optimal fizz and texture.
