Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup Cream Soda (Vanilla soda can be a substitute)
- 2 tablespoons Blueberry Syrup (store-bought or homemade with blueberries, sugar, and water)
Cream Mixture
- ½ cup Heavy Cream (can be substituted with coconut cream or oat milk creamer for dairy-free option)
- 2 tablespoons Sweetened Condensed Milk
- ¼ teaspoon Almond Extract
Instructions
- Combine Cream Mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth, rich, and creamy.
- Prepare Glasses: Fill two tall glasses about three-quarters full with clear ice cubes to ensure the drink stays cold and refreshing.
- Add Cream Soda: Pour 1 cup of cold cream soda evenly into each glass over the ice to create the fizzy base of the drink.
- Incorporate Blueberry Syrup: Gently spoon 2 tablespoons of blueberry syrup into each glass, allowing it to swirl naturally into the cream soda for marbled flavor distribution.
- Add Almond Extract: Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of almond extract into each glass; this step is essential to capture the authentic blueberry muffin flavor.
- Pour Cream Mixture: Slowly pour the sweet cream mixture into each glass, letting it sink and swirl gently without stirring for layered visual appeal and balanced taste.
- Serve Immediately: Present the Blueberry Muffin Dirty Soda with a straw or spoon for easy stirring, and enjoy your refreshing treat right away.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream or oat milk creamer.
- Homemade blueberry syrup can be made by simmering fresh or frozen blueberries with sugar and water until thickened, then cooled.
- Do not skip the almond extract; it is key to achieving the true blueberry muffin flavor.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and fizz.
- Adjust sweetness by modifying the amount of condensed milk or blueberry syrup to taste.
