Make Your Own Dirty Soda Like ‘The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives’ At This NYC Swig Alternative
Dreaming of Swig ever since you binged The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives? Luckily for us, NYC’s first-ever ‘dirty soda’ shop has two locations to give you your fix: South Street Seaport & Rockefeller Center. Known as Cool Sips, this new hot-spot with a beachy twist offers hundreds of ways to customize your soda, however you like it!
So what is dirty soda and where did it come from? Dirty soda is essentially fountain soda, mixed with syrups, cream, and other candies. Hailing from Utah in the 2010s, these dirty drinks were at first most commonly consumed by faith-based communities that practice sobriety.
However, Hulu’s hit show The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives has brought the dirty soda industry on the map, making viewers, religious affiliated or not, crave those 44-oz doctored up sodas.
Cool Sips offers a “create your own sip” option, with customizations beyond your wildest imaginations. With 16 syrups ranging from toffee to coconut (and yes, they can all be made sugar free—just how the Mormon wives get them), three cream options and what Cool Sips deems “fun stuff” to add like boba pearls and jelly candies, there’s no limitations on what you can dream up. Not to mention, your liquid doesn’t have to be soda. Cool Sips also offers the choice of tea & ade, Gatorde, an energy drink, or cold brew coffee.
But if you’re overwhelmed and spoiled for choice you can stick to one of their Signature Sips:
- Dirty Dirty: Dr. Pepper, Coconut, Lime, Half & Half
- P-Town: Starry, Blue Raspberry, Watermelon
- Fulong: Sweet Tea, Sweet Cream, Brown Sugar Boba
