Earlier this year I was at a Blogging Conference in Utah. Swig was sponsoring the conference, so there was a constant supply of Swig drinks and cookies.

I learned something very quickly: I have no self-control around Swig’s sweets.

If you’re not from Utah, you’re probably super confused right now. What is Swig you ask? Swig is a very successful company that sells dirty sodas. Dirty sodas are a regular soda with things added to it. Dirty sodas are amazing.

{Utah has the best desert/treat places on earth – it is probalby because of the lack of alcohol consumed in the state. All the non-drinkers come up with alternative creative ways to get in some fun calories. Utah really takes alternative treat options to a new level.}

MY COPYCAT VERSION

I want to share my imitation of my very favorite Swig drink: The Raspberry Dream.

I take the easy way out and use Raspberry Puree from a bottle. I had to hunt for the coconut creamer a little, but ended up finding it at Kroger.

Swig Copy-Cat: Raspberry Dream Soda

Author: Mary Johanson - CreatingMarysHome.com

Recipe type: drink

Prep time: 5 mins

Total time: 5 mins

My imitation of my very favorite Swig drink - the Raspberry Dream Soda!

Ingredients

Ice
12 oz. can/bottle of Dr. Pepper or diet Dr. Pepper
2 Tablespoons Raspberry Puree (not syrup, puree)
Coconut Creamer (the kind usually made for coffee)

Instructions

Fill your cup halfway with ice.
Pour in the Dr. Pepper.
Add 2 Tablespoons of Raspberry Puree.
Stir gently, but thoroughly.
Add a splash (~ a Tablespoon) of coconut creamer, then stir gently a few more times.
Add a straw and drink up ... it is amazing!

Substitutions:

While I enjoy caffeine in my sodas, Matt doesn’t drink caffeine and so I don’t let my kids drink any caffeine either to respect him. I made this recipe with Sprite for my family and it was a big hit. (I still prefer Dr. Pepper in it!)
My husband hates coconut flavoring, so I made his with regular heavy cream. He really liked it.

Add Cookies

I wanted to give my kids the full Swig experience when I got home from Utah. Swig doesn’t only serve amazing sodas – they also make a very good cookie … it is very very good. (ps – Swig is not paying me for this blog post!)

I am excited that they started selling their cookies in box mixes on Amazon!!!
