Who Remembers ‘Zima?’ Well, You Can Make Your Own at Home [RECIPE]

Somehow we got on the topic of alcoholic beverages from the 80s and 90s this morning on the Get Up & Go Show. We found that 'Zima' was introduced in 1993 by MillerCoors, hit its peak in 1994, and was discontinued in the states by 2008.

For you folks missing that clear refreshing taste, you can make your own at home.

• 1 1/2 oz. vodka
• 1 1/2 oz. Calpico [a Japanese soft drink]
• 1/4 oz. lime juice
• 1/2 oz. lemon juice
• 1 oz.   water
• 1 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
• 1 oz. club soda

Pour everything into a collins glass and stir. Chill in the fridge. Zima even has its own fan Facebook page begging retailers to bring it back to the USA. Right now the drink is only sold in Japan.
