Ingredients
Units
Scale
For the Cherry Mixture:
- 2/3 cup whole cherries, seeds removed (fresh or frozen and thawed)
For the Soda Base:
- 2 - 7.5 ounce cans Dr. Pepper
For the Cold Foam:
- 1/2 cup vanilla creamer (Chobani brand or similar)
Instructions
- Prepare the cherries: Mince the cherries finely until they are small enough to easily fit through a straw. You should get a few spoonfuls of cherry juice from chopping; set this juice aside for the cold foam.
- Make the cold foam: Using a frother or a smoothie blender, combine the vanilla creamer and the reserved cherry juice. Froth until you achieve a thick, creamy but easily pourable cold foam.
- Assemble the drinks: Place 4 tablespoons of the minced cherries at the bottom of each glass. Add ice cubes to fill about two-thirds of each glass.
- Add the soda: Pour the Dr. Pepper into each glass, leaving about 2 inches of space at the top to accommodate the cold foam.
- Top with cold foam: Carefully spoon or pour the cherry vanilla cold foam over the soda. Gently stir to combine, being careful not to agitate too much to avoid overflow due to carbonation.
Notes
- For a lower-calorie option, substitute with cherry vanilla creamer like Ollipop.
- Diet Dr. Pepper is also an acceptable alternative for fewer calories.
