Ingredients

• 2 cups diet cola, well chilled
• ¼ cup coconut syrup, chilled
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, about 1 large lime
• ¼ cup heavy cream, very cold
• 1 to 1½ cups ice cubes or crushed ice

Instructions

1. Chill the ingredients: Place the cola, coconut syrup, lime, and heavy cream in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Chilled ingredients help preserve the fizz and create beautiful creamy swirls.
2. Prepare the glasses: Fill two mason jars about two-thirds full with ice.
3. Make the coconut-lime mixture: In a small measuring cup, stir together the coconut syrup and fresh lime juice until well combined.
4. Add the syrup: Divide the coconut-lime mixture evenly between the two ice-filled jars.
5. Pour in the cola: Slowly add 1 cup of chilled diet cola to each jar. Tilt the jars slightly and pour down the side to help preserve the carbonation.
6. Stir gently: Give each drink a few gentle turns with a long spoon to combine the flavors while leaving some beautiful streaks.
7. Add the cream: Slowly pour about 2 tablespoons of very cold heavy cream into the center of each drink. Let it naturally swirl through the cola.
8. Serve immediately: If desired, give each drink one or two gentle stirs. Serve while the drink is cold, fizzy, and beautifully marbled.

Conclusion

This 4-Ingredient Dirty Cola is an easy and refreshing homemade drink with a delicious combination of coconut, lime, creamy richness, and bubbly cola. The beautiful swirls make it especially fun to serve, while the simple ingredients mean you can prepare it whenever a soda-shop-style treat sounds good.
