You are going to LOVE this Dirty Coke Recipe! Have you ever heard of a Dirty Coke? I have seen quite a bit of buzz around the net with Dirty Diet Coke and Dirty Dr. Peppers. I figured it was time that I give one of these “dirty” drinks a try. So simple but so tasty. How have I enjoyed Coke as much as I have before giving this Dirty Coke Recipe a try? Yum! Yum! Coke, lime and coconut. I never would have guessed that these three ingredients would blend so well together.
Dirty Coke Recipe
During the summer months I CRAVE refreshing drinks. If you read my blog regularly you have probably noticed. This Dirty Coke was totally refreshing. As I sipped on my Dirty Coke I closed my eyes and pictured myself on a beach (I really need a vacation, ha ha). This drink really blasted me with refreshment.
The ingredients for this Dirty Coke Recipe are quite simple. Coca-Cola (you could use diet soda too), half and half or other creamer, sugar and coconut. I found my imitation coconut at Remke but you could also order in some Torani Coconut Syrup
from Amazon too!
