Dirty diet cokes are not really that new, they are been around for a number of years.  And now that I think of it, didn’t Laverne on Laverne and Shirley drink milk and Pepsi?  Ok, probable not a good example because that doesn’t sound great but I promise this, a dirty diet coke is sinfully delish.  Sweet and caffeinated and goes down super easy.   And if wish to go for the full monty then add a couple shots of rum!  

 

What is a Dirty Diet Coke:

I believe the best way to explain a dirty coke is to compare it to Italian sodas. To keep it simple a dirty diet coke is basically a caffeinated Italian soda.   Italian sodas are usually a combinations of different fruit syrups, half and half and club soda. But dirty cokes start with you guessed it caffeinated coke or diet coke.    I guess it could be flavored with different syrups but mainly they are only flavored with sweet lime juice, coconut syrup and the cream.   

A dirty Diet Coke tastes like a coke float with a hint of tropical flavor. The creaminess and flavor combination is reminiscent of a cocktail, just without any alcohol.  But you could absolutely add alcohol like rum which is also amazing.  This is a must try fun beverage this summer.
