A bold twist on a classic cocktail, the MTN Dew NY Sour combines the smooth warmth of rye or bourbon whiskey with bright lemon juice and a touch of simple syrup for balance. Topped with the crisp, citrusy kick of MTN DEW^® and finished with a float of sweet Italian red wine, this drink delivers layers of flavor—sweet, tart, and slightly effervescent. Garnish with a lemon wheel or peel for a vibrant finish that’s as eye-catching as it is refreshing.

Ingredients

2-3 oz Mountain Dew Regular
1 oz rye or bourbon whiskey
