Behold The Dewgarita And Weep, For There Is Truly Nothing Left On This Earth Worth Saving
If you ever wanted to pay an exorbitant price for the type of swill you used to pregame frat parties with, then boy, does Red Lobster have the thing for you.
Today, Red Lobster and PepsiCo announced the "Dewgarita," which is a margarita made with America's greenest soda, Mountain Dew. The drink has a "secret recipe," though we do know it has tequila and Mountain Dew in it (the dust coating the rim of the glass in the promotional photo is sadly not Doritos).
For a nihilistic bunch of Twitter users, the Dewgarita felt like the final straw, the late capitalism cherry on top of a 2020 cake that has given us COVID-19, violent protests against police brutality, Murder Hornets, sky-altering wildfires on the West Coast and a menagerie of other disasters.
Some were ready to chug it just to have an emotion again.
And a shockingly high number of people seemed somewhat-genuinely stoked for it.
So here we are: enjoy your tequila/caffiene-induced hangovers, America, brought to you by Mountain Dew: Dew whatever the hell you want.

This is a move I would’ve expected from Taco Bell, which just launched their own wine, which is something I’d expect more from a seafood place. I’m thinking someone higher up at yum brands had an idea but for whatever reason, the idea did a complete 180 somewhere along the line…
