Take a look at this concoction. It is called a “Mountain Sunrise” - and I just made it up.

The photo doesn’t come anywhere near close to properly showing off the color of the tasty tasty beverage as it transitions from a light and airy orange to a deep and vivacious red . . . but trust me. This is definitely a drink that you will want to pull out at your next dinner party - or back yard social - to really wow your guests.

What is in it - you may be wondering. What makes it the best drink - the most specials of specials - you are probably thinking right now.

Well - pals of mine - it is simple - really just two ingredients . . . icy cold Mountain Dew poured gently over a waiting base of grenadine - and the results are delightful.

A couple of tips. Don’t make this if you don’t like Mountain Dew - as it makes up the bulk of the mixture. Also - don’t expect to taste much cherry - as the Mountain Dew has an amazing propensity to block any other flavors that are added to it . . . I leave it to you to experiment. I leave it to you to enjoy.

So - whether you are in the city of the forest - one day soon, you should seriously consider curling up with your loved ones and sharing in the glow of a “Mountain Sunrise.”

Yum.
