Cooking with Soda Pop: Dishes Made with Soft Drinks

May 11, 2018 by RecipeLion 3 Comments

Sure, we all love to drink Dr. Pepper, Coca-Cola and other soft drinks, but have you ever cooked or baked with them? Who knows who first decided to pour some 7-Up into their biscuits – perhaps it was a happy accident, or maybe someone was playing a prank. Whatever it was, boy am I happy it was discovered.

In these dishes made with soft drinks, often the soda adds the perfect flavor and desired consistency to the recipe. Chocolate cake mix cake made with your favorite soda is amazingly moist and super easy. Adding cherry soda to pork recipes also adds a little bit of sweetness to the dish, in such a good way.

I know we all love to crack open a can of cola when we hit that 3 o’clock slump or when we’re craving something fizzy and refreshing. But with these easy recipes, you can eat your soft drink (or, as I like to call it, pop).

Don’t worry, you’re not going to get the nose tingling feeling of carbonation when you bite into a root beer float cookie. Instead, you’re going to get the creamy, root beer flavor of your favorite childhood dessert in a delicious cookie.

I know you’ll love these recipes so much that when you go to pull a can of soda pop out of the fridge next, you’ll be dreaming of perfectly marinated chicken or chocolate sauce made with Dr. Pepper. I know I will!

    I have used various sodas in cake mix for years. Cherry flavored Dr Pepper, Pepsi or Coke is my favorite in chocolate cake mix. Very moist and delicious even when using the off brand cake mix. Try spice cake with root beer. Yummy!Strawberry or Orange Crush with white or yellow cake mix.

    Several times a year I make root beer brisket in my slow cooker. I don’t actually use a recipe, or I’d share it. I do marinade and cook the brisket in root beer, and make a ‘bbq sauce’ out of root beer, garlic and onion powder, ginger, hot red pepper jelly, and a sweet chili dipping sauce I buy premade at Target.

    As a college student, we live on caffeine, whether it be in soda or coffee form. With these new ways to incorporate soda into food items, we can enjoy it even further! We no longer have to worry about letting soda go to waste or take up room in our mini fridge; we can simply throw it into a recipe and create something new and delicious! Not to mention how quick and easy these recipes are. I personally look forward to trying the Dr. Pepper chocolate sauce, both of those are yummy temptations of mine. 🙂
