Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz Dr Pepper 1 can, cold
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Cream chilled, at pourable consistency
  • as preferred Crushed Ice
For Garnish
  • 1 slice Lime optional
  • 1 sprinkle Toasted Coconut Flakes optional
  • 1 Maraschino Cherry optional

Equipment

  • cocktail shaker or mason jar
  • measuring spoons

Method
 

Prepare the Coconut Cream
  1. Make sure your coconut cream is at a pourable consistency. If it's too thick, gently warm it until it becomes slightly liquid. Do not overheat, as you only need it soft enough to mix easily into the soda.
Mix Your Drink
  1. In a large glass, add the crushed ice. Pour the cold Dr Pepper over the ice, filling the glass to about ¾ full to leave room for the coconut cream. Gently add the coconut cream on top. The cream is denser and might sink or create beautiful swirls with the soda.
Garnish And Serve
  1. If using, garnish with a slice of lime, a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes, or a maraschino cherry. Serve immediately with a straw and stirrer, allowing your guests or yourself to mix the soda and cream right before the first sip.
