So you want to throw a dirty soda bar. Great instinct! it's a simple way to leave your guests feeling like you spent days to give them a whole experience. It's a genius move for birthdays, baby showers, graduations, teacher appreciation, or honestly any excuse to hand people a fizzy drink and call it an event. Everything I actually used to pull mine off is right here: printable menus and signature recipe cards, flavor ideas, syrups, pumps, cups, labels, serving supplies, decorations, and the unglamorous little setup tools that keep the whole thing from turning into a sticky free-for-all. I've also tucked in my own DIY soda bar stationery alongside the products that genuinely pair well with it. Classic dirty soda bar, lemonade station, mocktail spread, themed drink table. Whatever you're building, these picks make setup faster, let guests serve themselves, and keep thinking you are a genius. A few things I learned hosting my own: -Get sturdy straws. Paper ones go limp and sad halfway through a drink. Not the vibe. -Pick flavors that play well with others. Choose syrups that each pair with two or three of your others, so you're not stuck with one full bottle while the crowd-favorite runs dry. -Put the menu right up front so guests know what they're building before they get to the cups. -Use pumps. Free-pouring syrup is how you end up with sticky spills, hands, clothes, furniture...
