2020 has been filled with unexpected twists and turns, but a collaboration between [Pepsi Co.'s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baja-blast) [Mountain Dew](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mountain-dew-mango-rush) and [Red Lobster](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lobsterfest-2026), which resulted in the creation of the Dew Garita, may be one of the strangest.

The hilarious cocktail concoction is being described as "the unofficial official cocktail of 2020." While the exact ingredients that will make up this drink are unknown, the teaser for it claims it will be a delicious and unexpected combination that's sure to immerse the senses. The rim of the drink has even been dusted with a colorful salt to complete the look. This drink serves as one of the many menu collaborations that will be introduced at select Red Lobsters.
