How to Make a DIY Coca-Cola Soda Bar
Need a fun and easy party idea? How about instead of an Italian Soda Bar… you make a Coca-Cola Soda Bar!
Creating your own flavored drink with Coke is both entertaining and delicious for everyone. I’m excited to be partnering with Coca-Cola to show you this fun party idea.
All you need for an adorable soda bar party table are some cute personalized glass bottles with your guests names and a few additional party supplies.
Setting up a soda bar is perfect for any type of party or casual gathering. This gives your guests a fun activity with very little mess. My family absolutely loved it!
What you’ll Need:
- Bottles of Coke. Order personalized bottles at !
- Flavored Syrups – I used Coconut, Cherry and Vanilla
- Syrup Pump – I used these pumps for my Torani Syrup.
- Crushed Ice
- Whipped Cream
- Cherries
- Cups or Mason Jars (I love the blue mason jars!)
- Straws (cute paper straws are always fun!)
I have to tell you, the coconut is my favorite with Coke. Yum!
Step 1
Add the pumps to your syrup and set out all ingredients on your party table. Be sure to have a bottle opener handy if you use the old fashion Coca-Cola bottles.
I filled my cups with ice right before I opened the soda bar, but you could have a small ice chest full of ice next to the table.
Step 2
Fill your cups with ice and Coke. Choose your flavor of syrup and add 2-4 pumps, then stir the drink with a straw.
Top with whipped cream and a cherry! By adding whipped cream, it tastes a little like an ice cream float without the extra calories.
Cheers before drinking your fabulous creation! This is truly a perfect drink for a party!
