How to Make Knott's Calico Soda

There are just a few days left to experience all of the delicious Boysenberry Goodness at Knott’s Berry Farm during their annual festival. But alas, all is not lost. All-year round, you can get your Boysenberry fix in with funnel cakes, soft serve, Icees, churros, and more. And if you love Knott’s Berry Farm’s Calico Soda, you’ll be happy to know that you can get it year-round at the Calico Saloon. During one of our visits to the park, the culinary team at Knott’s showed us how to make Knott’s Calico Soda!

Knott’s Calico Soda

The only place you can get Knott’s Calico Soda is at Knott’s Berry Farm. As such, the recipe is exclusive and a proprietary blend of boysenberry, simple syrup, soda water, and more.

This Boysenberry Cream Soda is hand-crafted and served over ice in a plastic faux mason jar. Grab a soda then stay at the saloon to enjoy the show!

Calico Saloon Show

Located at the Calico Saloon in Ghost Town, the show includes a demonstration of the can-can and the musical mis-matchings of Cameo Kate and Dakota Dan. Don’t miss the Can-Can Dancers who join the show during the summer months.

Knott’s Boysenberry Festival

Since Knott’s Berry Farm is the birthplace of the Boysenberry and all fruits can be traced back to the park, it seems only fitting to have a Spring celebration! For 24 days, families can enjoy more than 75 boysenberry-inspired foods, live entertainment, the Wine and Craft Brew Tasting Garden and more. Don’t miss the limited-time Boysenberry Festival going on through April 8, 2018!

Do you have the recipe typed somewhere? It’s hard to hear what is being said and I love the calico soda

  I agree, I’d love to read the recipe because the video is hard to hear.

  I couldn’t hear it either, and I think they did that on purpose..they don’t want us to know the recipe.

Rudolph Boysen hybridized the berry with his name. Walter Knott popularized it.
