This dirty soda combines lemon-lime soda with pink guava and cream of coconut. When poured over ice, the cream forms pale swirls among the fruit and bubbles.
It is a sweet fusion drink, intended as a treat to share, not as a substitute for water or natural juice. It contains no rum, liqueurs or any other alcoholic ingredients.

Guava concentrate
For two glasses
Preparation
- Put the guava purée, water and optional sugar in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat for 4–5 minutes, stirring, until you have a pourable concentrate. Do not reduce it to a jam-like consistency.
- Transfer to a small container and let cool completely, about 20 minutes; you can speed up the cooling by placing the container over cold water, without letting any water get into the mixture.
- Fill two glasses of about 400 ml halfway to two-thirds full with ice. Divide the guava concentrate between them.
- Add 150 ml of cold soda to each glass, slowly to control the foam. Pour 30 ml of cream of coconut over each one.
- Stir once or twice with a long spoon, leaving some visible swirls. Garnish with the lime slices and serve immediately.
