Dr Pepper & Cream Soda Wings

The first time I tasted Dr Pepper & Cream Soda I knew I was going to make a wing sauce with it. I mean that stuff is just flat-out fantastic, especially for a big Dr Pepper fan (me!). So I made the sauce. Happily. And boy, is this ever crazy good. Dr Pepper & Cream Soda wings are different, and really great!

Classic Dr Pepper flavor, a little creamy sweetness, and just a slight kick of Buffalo sauce, this sauce is fantastic. Each flavor is different. Nothing is lost. You’ll get everything in every single bite. Could this be the perfect wing sauce?

Uniquely Yummy

I would not change a thing about these Dr Pepper & Cream Soda wings. The flavor is unique and delicious. I like my sauce a bit thick, but not gloppy thick, so I added a little cornstarch at the end to help thicken it up. You can leave it out if you want. After the sauce reduces take a spoon and dip it in the sauce to see if you want it thicker or not. If it coats the back of a spoon, I’d call it done. If it runs off, leaving the spoon bright and shiny clean, it’s too thin for your wings.

Sauce On The Side

There’s nothing wrong with serving a bit extra of the sauce on the side for dipping the wings, along with ranch and blue cheese dressing. I put my sauces and dips in condiment cups. They’re the perfect size for wings. And other things.

I store my leftover homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot wings!

Texas Pete Extra Mild Buffalo Wings

If you’ve got friends that can’t handle the heat from spicy foods, then Texas Pete’s Extra Mild Buffalo wing sauce is exactly what you are looking for. It has that great Buffalo flavor but without so much of the kick. Now, there’s a bit, but it’s not going to upset anyone, even the most heat-sensitive. These Texas Pete Extra Mild Buffalo wings are a real crowd-pleaser!

Nicely Mellow with Great Taste

This sauce is a thinner sauce, as many Buffalo-style wing sauces are. If you put it directly on super-hot right-off-the-grill or fresh-out-of-the-fryer wings you’re going to end up with some sauce at the bottom of your plate. Let the wings rest a few minutes first before saucing them. But don’t wait too long, you don’t want your wings to get cold! Don’t worry, you’ll be enjoying your Texas Pete Extra Mild Buffalo wings soon!

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

What Are You Waiting For?

Go make some wings! It’s not that hard to do! My go-to method is to air-fry them. A little seasoning first. Air-fried to perfection. Fantastic aroma as they cook. Crispy skin. Juicy meat. Tender. Ready for a sauce. Air-fried wings can hold up to being tossed with sauce, so that’s what I do. If they were deep-fried with a batter I wouldn’t abuse them like that. I’d gently brush the sauce on. Or serve it on the side, for dipping.

See my guides for cooking your wings, and saucing them! I’ve got you covered!

My Trusty Wingman

My air fryer isn’t fancy. It doesn’t have any bells and whistles. Well, ok, it does have a bell when the timer goes off but that’s it. I don’t even use the timer actually. I use a timer on my phone that has two countdowns: one for 12 minutes and one for 6 minutes. That’s all I ever need to get perfect wings each and every time!
