Instructions

Prepare the Cream Mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth, rich, and creamy.
Fill Glasses with Ice: Grab two tall glasses and fill each about three-quarters full with clear ice cubes to chill the drink effectively.
Add Cream Soda: Carefully pour 1 cup of cold cream soda into each glass over the ice, providing the fizzy base for the drink.
Pour Blueberry Syrup: Using a spoon, gently add 2 tablespoons of blueberry syrup to each glass, allowing it to swirl naturally into the cream soda for a beautiful visual and fruity flavor burst.
Add Almond Extract: Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of almond extract into each glass to impart an authentic blueberry muffin aroma and flavor; stir gently if desired.
Top with Cream Mixture: Slowly pour the prepared creamy mixture into each glass, letting it sink and swirl without stirring to preserve the layered look and creamy richness.
Serve Immediately: Present your Blueberry Muffin Dirty Soda right away, with a straw or spoon in each glass for optional stirring and enjoyment.

Notes

For a dairy-free alternative, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream or oat milk creamer.
To make homemade blueberry syrup, simmer equal parts blueberries, sugar, and water until thickened, then strain.
Be gentle while pouring to maintain the layered visual effect of the drink.
Use clear ice cubes for the best presentation and slower melting.
This recipe serves two and can be easily scaled up for more servings.
