I know what Italian Cream Sodas are and I've been to the Soda Bar in Appleton. I just never realized exactly what the whole dirty soda trend really was and I really didn't even know it was a thing. That is until this food truck showed up at a baseball game and everyone was getting these fun drinks. I decided to check it out and splurge on myself for our anniversary.
A dirty soda for those that don't know is a soda that you customize with cream, flavored syrups, and other mix-ins such as fruit. It differs from an Italian (or French) Cream Soda that it uses actual soda instead of club soda.
The baseball tournament had invite The Bubbler Bar to the diamond for the day. The Bubbler Bar is a food truck based out of Green Bay that creates Dirty Sodas.
They do not have a large menu but they do feature hand muddled lemonade and energy infusions along with their Dirty Sodas.
I played it safe with a Raspberry Dream which was Dr. Pepper, raspberry and vanilla syrups, and cream. After I ordered it I saw the Campfire Cream which looked amazing. I was told it was by the tournament director. Maybe next time.
My raspberry dream was amazing. It was the perfect combination of sweet and creamy. I would totally get it again.
Based on the color, one mom thought it might have been a bloody Mary.
I may now be obsessed with dirty sodas. I may have to try to create them at home. Hmmm. coconut raspberry Dr. Pepper anyone?
If you have not tried one of these (and I don't mean the ones at McDonald's), find a local business that makes them an indulge.
