TikTok remains the undisputed champion of all things viral, and one of its biggest stars is “dirty soda,” a trend in which all kinds of pop gets treated to all manner of flavor boosters, like fruit juices, syrups and half-and-half. The hashtag has over 170 million views on TikTok. In one of the most popular series, high school teacher Joseph Hall tries his students’ favorite dirty soda orders to see whether they make the grade.
Why does it need two more? Dirty soda devotees almost always opt for a citrus boost, and love the sumptuous ice cream float-like texture and flavor that adding dairy, creamer or coconut cream provides. The selling points for this home kitchen version are that it has a long shelf-life, requires no mixing of other ingredients, and with a few stabilizers added, you won’t get that dreaded “Pilk” curdle. The 16-ounce bottle is available only for a limited time and retails for $3.29.
