Mountain Dew^® Mule 

Prep Time:

14 min.

No shade to Moscow, but we'll take our mule MTN DEW^®-style. Like its namesake, this drink has one heck of a kick. It's gingery, tart and topped with a little Cheetle^®, of course. Say hello to your new favorite.

Ingredients

1½ Oz. Vodka
1 Oz. Lime juice, freshly squeezed
½ Oz. Simple syrup
6 CHEETOS® Puffs Cheese Flavored Snacks
1 Oz. Ginger Beer
2 Oz. MTN DEW®
A slice of lime dusted with crushed Cheetos®, to garnish

How to make it

To make the simple syrup, combine ¼ cup of sugar and ¼ cup of hot water. Stir until sugar dissolves. Then add 6 Cheetos^® Puffs, strain and let it cool. Flamin’ Hot^® Tip: This syrup can be refrigerated in an air-tight container for up to 3 days.
