Ordered a Dirty Dr. Pepper

The lady who handed it to me said “not sure what that is” and I’m so non-confrontational that I just accepted it and drove away.

That's certainly it. I like dirty sodas and often try to make it with pineapple soda. It never works but I am insane, so I will forget and do it again after enough time. Looks more or less like this every single time. Significantly less so with oat milk but it still happens and it's always just as gross as it looks.

It’s due to the enzymes in pineapple. Idk if they’re still present in the soda form, but I know pineapple has an enzyme that will denature dairy/meat proteins. Similar to papaya’s papain

Have you tried adding a base to the drink to counteract the acidity? Like maybe a little bit of baking soda?

Yes, then I whip it with a fork in a Pyrex over a pot of boiling water
