Introduction

Step 1
【Coconut Cream Pie Syrup】Toast unsweetened coconut flakes in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until about 1/3 of the flakes are dark golden brown and the rest are lightly golden.
Step 2
【Coconut Cream Pie Syrup】Pour water and white sugar into the toasted coconut. Stir well and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook for 20 to 25 minutes.
Step 3
【Coconut Cream Pie Syrup】Allow the syrup to cool on the stove for about 15 minutes, then strain it through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing the flakes to extract as much syrup as possible.
Step 4
【Coconut Cream Pie Syrup】Mix in coconut extract and a pinch of salt. Let the syrup cool completely, then store it in a container in the fridge.
Step 5
【Strawberry Shortcake Syrup】Toss quartered fresh strawberries with about 1/2 cup of white sugar in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit on the counter for 60 minutes to macerate and draw out juice.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Ensure all the syrups are cooled down completely before building the sodas to prevent the ice from melting too quickly.
Macerating the strawberries in sugar beforehand helps draw out intense, natural strawberry juices.
Straining the strawberry syrup while pressing some pulp through creates a luscious, thicker texture reminiscent of pie filling.
The Blueberry Crisp syrup naturally thickens due to the oatmeal, so stir it well after chilling. You can thin it with extra blueberry juice if it gets too thick.
A pinch of salt in dessert syrups is crucial as it balances the sweetness and highlights the complex dessert flavors.
