Apparently the latest craze but in case you, like me, never heard of them, here's the description from the Sonic Drive In website:

"New SONIC Dirty Drinks. Make it dirty with the sweet flavor of coconut, cream, and lime infused in your favorite soda flavors featuring Dr Pepper® ."

This morning I heard that Coffee Mate has come out with a creamer that is to be added To Dr. PEPPER to make a version of the same thing.  (Should it be called Soda Mate?)

Now when the kids in your life ask for it, you can sound like you know of what they speak.

I plan to try one soon, maybe this weekend.  Sounds interesting.

That all sounds kind of good!

Never heard of Sonic Drive.

@Mz iMac.  They are a large chain in the Southern states.  Still use car hops.  Good burgers and some weird drink combos. 

If Coffee Mate has a product, it's probably a National trend and not brand new.

Not for me.  The only things I drink with calories are skim milk and alcohol....not together. 😃

I prefer to eat my calories

@Kachina624- I received an email from Coffeemate yesterday about the Dirty Soda.  According to the email it is a new product.

I have never had their dirty drinks but LOVE their strawberry shake!!!❤ They are known for their famous shakes. Sadly, they do not have Sonic Drive-Ins where I currently live.😐

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

@Kachina624 This looks and sounds like a cousin to Thai iced tea which has a mixture of coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk drizzled over the tea. There are versions of the creamy part. It's popular in Thai restaurants because it helps soothe the spicy heat of the Thai food.

This sounds delish. I must plan a visit to Sonic!

Love a Coke or Root Beer float.  So Coffee Mate?  Sure, why not.

And I put lime juice in almost everything I drink now.

I like the idea of the coconut and lime.  Not sure about cream in a Dr. Pepper.  Cream in pop does not seem too good to me.  Except I can remember visiting my cousin in Manhattan and she drank Coke a cola mixed with milk and it was pretty good, so maybe cream in pop is good too

We have a Sonic so I might try one although I don't drink carbonated pop anymore.  Might make an exception and try it as I really like coconut and lime.  Squeeze a lime in my ice tea whenever one is available.
