Maxaemillion Capone created this drink in Los Angeles, California to celebrate Cinco De Mayo. It has gained popularity in Hispanic clubs because of its delicious taste, resemblance to the Mexican flag and unique method of consumption.

1/4 oz grenadine syrup
1 oz DeKuyper® Watermelon Pucker schnapps
1 oz Midori® melon liqueur
7-Up® soda

Pour the grenadine into a collins glass THEN add ice. Swirl the grenadine to chill it, so it stays on the bottom during the build. Pour in the Dekuyper Watermelon Pucker schnapps. Carefully add 7-Up (or Sprite or Red Bull) to create a clear layer in the middle. Layer the Midori on top. The drink now looks like the Mexican flag. Place in straw but DO NOT STIR.

The preferred consumption method is known as "melon picking." The drinker (often female) sucks on the straw and pulls it up from the bottom so all the flavors individually flow quickly through the straw.
