Candy Cane Cola
Peppermint-mocha vibes in a Coke — festive, creamy, and a little like a candy cane dipped in cocoa.
Dirty soda is the Utah soda-shop formula — soda, a flavored syrup or two, a splash of cream, and fresh citrus over pebble ice. This Coke version takes about two minutes and zero alcohol. Prefer it lighter? Swap in a diet soda and sugar-free syrups.
How to order it at a soda shop or bar: “Coke with peppermint and vanilla, plus cream.”
