Make it a Pepsi summer!

Summer is in full swing! Pepsi is here to keep you cool with its delicious and refreshing beverages. Let Pepsi be the star in your next BBQ.

I use Pepsi with some of my favorite summer recipes.  Here are two of my favorites with steaks and beans.  For a great steak marinade, the night before, add a can of Pepsi to your favorite marinade or try this one.

  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. onion powder
  • 1 tbsp. ground black pepper
  • 1 can of Pepsi

Add all the ingredients in with the steaks in an air tight container. Let marinate over night. Cook your steaks and enjoy the tender juicy flavor.

Bake some beans and use the flavor of Pepsi to take those beans to the next level.

  • 6 ounces white beans (cans of)
  • onion (1 med., diced)
  • 3/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup yellow mustard
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup cooked bacon (crumbled into small pieces)
  • can Pepsi

Put them in the oven or use a slow cooker. I’m sure you won’t have any leftovers.

Whatever you decide to do this summer, make sure you do it with a Pepsi. It makes everything better.
