'Dew The Watermelon Lemonade - 52 Grilling and BBQ Secret Extras - DRINKS!


There are lots of ways to set your back yard BBQ as something special... Something better than the next guy; which sets you apart as "That Guy" (or Gal)...  the neighborhood BBQ Guru!

One of my favorite is with a specialty drink.

And this little gem just SCREAMS SUMMER!

It's a juiced up lemonade.  Made with an unusual Watermelon extra flavor but with bubbly carbonation from a liter bottle of soda and the Zing of Red Mountain Dew.  You can also substitute a bottle of Lemon Lime flavored pop (7-Up).  But for me, the extra zing of the Dew adds so much more!

And of course you always have the option of adding a little adult something something.  Either with individual shots of Rum, Vodka or Tequila to each glass, or add a half a bottle (to taste) if you are sure everyone in your party wants to indulge!

ENJOY ENJOY, party responsible and bask in the glory of being "That Guy" (or Gal)


OK... Here's what I did...
