Muddy Diet Dr Pepper
It would be awesome beyond belief if you could pin this Muddy Diet Dr Pepper to your pinterest boards! 
Public Declaration time: I’ve become an addict. Alright, I Can live without it but I don’t want to!
It all started when I made friends with these two sweet ladies who share my love of fun non-alcoholic drinks. We ended up in the middle of a cherry orchard in Michigan at a lovely dinner where they were serving all manner of rotted grape juices and as I came up with a concoction of lemonade and cherry juice for us we got to talking about other lovely mixed drinks and Sara and Kate asked me “Have you tried the dirty diet coke?”
My interest was piqued. Dirty Diet Coke? I knew they didn’t drink either so it had to be something good. As soon as I got home I looked it up on their site and set out to make my own version- using Diet Dr Pepper! (Y’all saw that coming, right?)
But then I got to the part where Sara added in half and half and I thought “This just sounds odd. I don’t know if that would be good.”
Two seconds later I vowed to trust anything Sara or Kate say for the rest of my life.
While they splash their half and half in, I’ve found that I like everything better if I give it a little stir and muddy the whole thing up.
Muddy Diet Dr Pepper was born!
This is the next best thing to having fairies clean your house while you sleep!
It’s like a trip to the beach for under a dollar!
It’s like a personal, warm hug directly from Heaven to Diet Dr Pepper lovers everywhere!
Let’s make us one!
You’ll need: Coconut Syrup (I’m using sugar free), Diet Dr Pepper, and Half and Half.
The Half and half makes this, in my opinion. It sounded really weird to me at first (okay so this whole thing sounded weird to me at first) but Sara was right, half and half takes it up a notch.
I found the coconut syrup on Amazon (click here) but I’m sure it is for sale somewhere in some store.
If you know where this is please tell me in the comments below because I’d kinda like to know.
Fill your glass with ice.
Add about 3 tablespoons of coconut syrup.
Add about half of your Diet Dr Pepper.
Stir just slightly.
Fill the glass up almost to the top with Diet Dr Pepper, save about 1 inch of head space.
Add a splash of half and half.
Stir lightly to muddy it all up.
ENJOY!
And I do mean ENJOY!
This tastes unlike anything I’ve ever known and I dearly love it!
It’s like a trip to the beach for under a dollar!

Torani Sugar Free Coconut can be purchased, besides Amazon, right in our own back yards, so to speak. Cost Plus World Market and also Bev Mo (Beverages and More). Great recipes, love the variety of them. Have made so many too. Thanks again, Jill
Torani syrups are sold at most Wal-Marts. I don’t know if you have Smart & Final stores there, but they’re a good outlet too. Lots of bar/restaurant supply stores also sell them. You should also visit Torani’s website and see all the flavors they make, even “Bacon”. Take care, Kenny
My husband is diabetic and has heart issues. Both of his specialist said to ditch any thing “diet” and go for the real deal. Just have a small amount. Need to try this with the “real ingredients”.
Need to Mix your drink with the Dr. Pepper Ice Cream (you can use any flavor of soda) ONLY 3 INGREDIENTS! I like to keep it simple when I cook, the few the ingredients, the more likely I will attempt it. So far I have made this with Root Beer and Big Red. AMAZING and simple! DO IT! (don’t forget to pour the soda in first and add the milk, if you add them the other way its one fizzy mess.
will try this need something different.
WOW this looks amazing….can’t wait to give it a try….
A splash of half and half takes away that yukky “diet” taste from the diet drinks.
I’ve tried it with Dr. Pepper and Root Beer,, but never added the coconut syrup. Can’t wait to try it.
