Dirty Soda Syrups vs. QuickFIXX Packets: Which Is Better?

If you’ve recently discovered the dirty soda craze, you’ve probably seen two ways to make them at home:

  1. Stock up on big bottles of dirty soda syrups (coconut, raspberry, vanilla, etc.).

  2. Use QuickFIXX packets, which combine flavors into one easy mix.

So which option is better? Let’s break it down.

The Case for Dirty Soda Syrups

Syrups are how dirty sodas started in soda shops. Pumps of coconut syrup, a squeeze of lime, maybe a splash of cream—that’s the original formula.

Pros:

  • Lots of flavors to choose from.

  • Classic soda shop vibe.

Cons:

  • Sticky messes on your counters.

  • Giant bottles hogging pantry or fridge space.

  • Hard to nail the right ratios (too much = cloying, too little = weak).

  • Expensive if you want multiple flavors.

The Case for QuickFIXX Packets

QuickFIXX packets are the new, no-mess way to make dirty sodas. Each one is pre-balanced and designed for a specific soda base, so you don’t have to think about ratios.

  • Affordable—pay for the drink, not a whole bottle.

  • Cleaner—no pumps, no spills, no clutter.

  • Curated recipes from Fixxology, so you’re getting tried-and-true flavor combos.

Cons:

  • Less DIY mixing—but let’s be real, most people just want it easy and tasty.
