Cream Mixture
- 2 cups half-and-half
- 2 tablespoons coconut extract or syrup
Additional Ingredients
- 2 liters Dr. Pepper, chilled

- Puree Raspberries: In a blender, combine the fresh raspberries and sugar. Blend until smooth to create the raspberry syrup base. Set this mixture aside.
- Prepare Cream Mixture: In a small bowl, mix the half-and-half with the coconut extract or syrup until fully combined to create a creamy, coconut-flavored dairy mixture.
- Assemble the Drink: Fill a 16-ounce glass halfway with ice cubes to chill the drink properly.
- Add Dr. Pepper: Pour Dr. Pepper into the glass to fill approximately three-quarters of the way, providing the fizzy soda base.
- Mix in Raspberry and Cream: Add 2 tablespoons of the raspberry puree mixture and 2 tablespoons of the cream mixture to the glass.
- Top and Stir: Top off the glass with additional Dr. Pepper to fill, then stir well to blend the flavors evenly throughout the drink.
Notes
- For best flavor, use fresh, ripe raspberries and chilled Dr. Pepper.
- You can adjust the sweetness by varying the sugar quantity or using a sugar substitute.
- Coconut extract can be substituted with coconut syrup for a sweeter, more syrupy texture.
- To make this drink lighter, substitute half-and-half with milk or a dairy-free alternative.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the fizzy texture of the soda.
