Notes

Pro Tips
  • Keep your sodas in the fridge for a few hours before mixing to ensure the drink stays ice-cold and bubbly.
  • Pour your sodas slowly over the ice to prevent the carbonation from escaping, which keeps your drink fizzy for much longer.
  • If the mix tastes too sweet, add a small splash of plain sparkling water or club soda to mellow out the flavor.
Recipe Notes
  • Diet Friendly: Simply swap in sugar-free or diet versions of all three sodas to lower calories without losing the tropical taste.
  • Batch Making: When serving a crowd, fill a pitcher with plenty of ice, use equal parts Mountain Dew and Powerade, and top it off with Sprite.
  • Best Enjoyed Fresh: This drink is meant to be enjoyed immediately after mixing because the carbonation will naturally fade over time.
