Pro Tips

  1. Chill everything! Use cold soda and coconut cream for the best flavor.
  2. Adjust the sweetness. If you like it less sweet, use less blackberry syrup.
  3. Use pebble ice. It mixes better and keeps the drink cold longer.
  4. Shake for extra creaminess. If you want a blended texture, shake the drink before pouring.
  5. Try different sodas. Cola or lemon-lime soda also work great!

Tools You’ll Need

  • Tall glass
  • Measuring cups & spoons
  • Spoon for stirring
  • Ice scoop

Substitutions & Variations

  • No blackberry soda? Use regular cola or lemon-lime soda.
  • Dairy-free? Swap coconut cream for almond or oat creamer.
  • More fruity? Add a splash of raspberry or pomegranate juice.

How to Make Blackout Berry Dirty Soda
