1teaspoonfresh squeezed lime juiceor a squeeze of juice from a small wedge of lime
1cupDr Pepper sodachilled
4tablespoonsCoconut Creme non-dairy coffee creamer Coffee Mate brand used
Lime circle ⅛-¼ inch thick, optional garnish for edge of glass
Instructions
Fill a 16 ounce sized glass with ice and top with the fresh squeezed lime juice.
1 cup ice , 1 teaspoon fresh squeezed lime juice
Slowly pour in the chilled Dr Pepper soda into the glass being careful not to create too many foamy bubbles on top. Tilting the glass on a slight angle as you pour, then gradually standing the glass back upright when done pouring in the soda, helps to prevent lots of foam from forming as you pour the soda into the glass.
1 cup Dr Pepper soda
Pour the coconut creme non-dairy coffee creamer into the glass and stir gently to combine.
Garnish the rim of the glass with a single fresh lime circle, if desired and serve with a straw.

Notes
Storage : This is best mixed and served right away, since the soda goes flat as it sits. To prep ahead, keep the lime juice and coconut creamer in separate containers in the fridge for up to a week and assemble in the glass right before serving.Tips :
Fresh lime juice tastes brighter than bottled and balances the sweet coconut and Dr Pepper.
Tilt the glass as you pour the soda so the foam does not bubble over.
Taste and adjust, more lime if it is too sweet, more coconut creamer if it is too tart.
