High-protein raspberry dirty soda in a tall glass with crushed ice, a cream ribbon, and a lime wheel

We just packed 21 grams of protein into the iconic "dirty soda." By using a Fusion Raspberry Citrus protein shot instead of sugary syrups, we turned this soda shop classic into a ridiculously delicious, 110-calorie powerhouse. You get the crisp bite of ice-cold cola, a tangy hit of fresh lime, and a rich ribbon of cream that turns the whole glass into a fizzy dessert. It hits all the right notes with absolutely zero sugar crash.

Integrate flavors

Insert a long spoon to the bottom of the glass and pull up gently just once to combine the flavors. Avoid aggressive stirring so your soda doesn't go flat.

Add the cream (optional)

For that signature cloudy, "dirty" look, slowly pour the half-and-half or coconut cream over the back of a spoon so it cascades and floats on top of the drink.

Top with a fresh lime wheel, add a straw, and drink immediately.

Ice-cold everything, always

Make sure both your soda and protein shot are ice-cold before mixing. Cold liquids hold carbonation much better and prevent the crushed ice from melting too fast, keeping your drink perfectly crisp to the last sip.

High-Protein Raspberry Lime Rickey (Zero Sugar)

High-Protein Raspberry Lime Rickey (Zero Sugar)

Step back into the golden era of the soda fountain, but leave the sugar behind. We took the sharp, tart bite of a classic Lime Rickey and transformed it into a crisp, high-protein cooler. A Fusion Raspberry Citrus shot seamlessly blends 21 grams of protein into a bright, 90-calorie thirst quencher. Gently bruised raspberries mingle with fresh lime, all lifted by a rush of ice-cold fizz. It's incredibly light, beautifully aromatic, and the absolute perfect drink to sip on all summer!
