Mountain Dew is releasing a cookbook, here's what's inside

Sometimes a cook needs a secret ingredient to make a dish pop, like a squirt of lime or a dash of cinnamon. Maybe your next secret ingredient could be Mountain Dew.

The soda brand is about to release the “Big Bold Book of MTN DEW Recipes,” a collection of about 40 recipes either made by fans, inspired by fans or just enjoyed by fans. It’s a celebration of Mountain Dew just ahead of the brand’s 80th anniversary.

The recipes cover a wide range of cooking skill levels, according to the company. Recipes in the book include dishes like green pancakes, green eggs and ham, salsas, barbecue sauces, Mountain Dew-infused pickles, jalapeno poppers and Mountain Dew slushies.

Some recipes use other sodas from the Mountain Dew family, like Code Red brisket and Livewire-brined turkey. There’s also a mozzarella bites recipe that uses both Mountain Dew and fellow PepsiCo brand Flamin’ Hot Cheetos crumbs.

Nicole Portwood, Mountain Dew’s vice president of marketing, called the book “the long-overdue love letter” to fans of the soda and creations they’ve made with Mountain Dew.
