Base
Start with your favorite fizzy foundation—Sprite, Diet Coke, Dr Pepper, or whatever bubbles you love most. The base sets the tone for your Dirty Soda magic.
Dr Pepper is one of the most popular Dirty Soda bases and one of my favorites! It pairs especially well with coconut, vanilla, cherry, and cream.

Sprite is such an easy base because it works with almost any fruity syrup! It’s also caffeine-free, which is a nice option to have.
