Cream Mixture
- ½ cup Heavy Cream (or coconut cream/oat milk creamer for dairy-free option)
- 2 tablespoons Sweetened Condensed Milk
- ¼ teaspoon Almond Extract
- Ice cubes (about three-quarters full in two tall glasses)
Instructions
- Combine Cream and Sweetened Condensed Milk: In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup heavy cream and 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk for 1-2 minutes until the mixture becomes rich and creamy.

- Add Almond Extract: Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of almond extract into each glass to provide a distinctive, authentic blueberry muffin flavor note. Stir gently if preferred.
- Pour Cream Mixture: Slowly and gently pour the rich cream and condensed milk mixture into each glass, letting it sink and swirl without stirring to create a layered, marbled effect.
- Serve Immediately: Offer the Blueberry Muffin Dirty Soda right away with a straw or spoon for optional stirring, ensuring the optimal fresh and creamy fizzy experience.
