Geeky Cocktail | Overwatch "Cruisin' for a Bruisin'"

Kyla Is Inspired | DVa Overwatch Cocktail

I'm so excited to share this week's geeky cocktail! We're calling it Cruisin' for a Bruisin', based on D.Va's new Cruiser skin & the vibes on Route 66. I'm currently in the process of making Cruiser D.va, but I wore this shirt and wig to get some photos for this post. Once the costume is complete I'll be making a full costume breakdown on the gun, shirt, and wig.Cruisin for a Bruisin' is a spin on the classic Tom Collins cocktail, which was very popular during the 50's and 60's. Traditionally it's made with gin, lemon juice, simple syrup & club soda. To bring it up to date and give it a little D.Va kick, we're using White Out Mountain Dew in place of the simple syrup & club soda. It's light and citrus-y... a perfect fit for this drink!
