Here in Utah it’s super popular to order soft drinks “dirty.” And really, all dirty means in this case is adding two things: coconut and lime. Combine those with some Dr. Pepper® Cherry and ice cream and oh heavens people, it’s delightful!
Dirty Dr. Pepper ® Cherry Ice Cream Float
Yields: 2 floats
- 1 can Dr. Pepper® Cherry soda
- vanilla ice cream
- 2 TBSP Cream of Coconut (found in the mixed beverage section)*
- 1 fresh lime, cut into quarters
- whipped cream and cherries, for topping
Pour about 1/4 cup of Dr. Pepper into the bottom of each glass. Then scoop out some ice cream until about 3/4 of the glass is full. Pour 1 TBSP of the cream of coconut into each glass, along with the juice of 1/4 lime. Top with another 1/4 cup of Dr. Pepper. Garnish with whipped cream, a cherry and a lime wedge.
*Many “dirty” soft drink recipes call for coconut syrup, but it’s so hard to find I substituted this Cream of Coconut and it tastes so much better! Mmmm!
ENJOY!
