Diet Mountain Dew

Dragon's Dew

Citrus meets fire in this electric spicy sipper

Diet Mountain Dew gets a fiery makeover with muddled jalapeño and zesty lime. A touch of agave balances the heat while a Tajín rim adds a tangy, salty kick. Refreshing, bold, and surprisingly addictive.

  3. 3Add fresh lime juice and agave nectar, then stir to combine.

Pro tip: For extra heat, leave the jalapeño seeds in when muddling. For a milder kick, remove them first.
