Her next immediate move after that surprising success? Drinking Pepsi and milk. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The questionable mixed beverage, with the equally unappetizing moniker \u201cPilk,\u201d is a social media food trend that took off on TikTok and other corners of the internet many months ago. Pepsi ad executives jumped on the opportunity to endorse and commercialize the \u201cdirty soda\u201d this holiday season with the soda giant running \u201cPilk and cookies\u201d ad campaigns across television and food delivery apps. They recruited the beloved \u201cMean Girls\u201d actress, and some unexplained sexual innuendo, to help in this odd but intriguing effort.<\/p>\n[embedded content]\n<p>The actress is seen tip-toeing around her festively decorated house when she finds the Pepsi-milk cocktail next to a plate of cookies. \u201cThat is one dirty soda, Santa,\u201d Lohan says with a laugh. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFeeling nice\u2026or naughty?\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/Pepsi\/\">@Pepsi<\/a>, let\u2019s make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/explore\/tags\/pilkandcookies\/\">#PilkandCookies<\/a>\u00a0happen,\u201d a caption on Lohan\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lindsaylohan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a> version of the ad reads. While some who have been enjoying the trend for months rejoiced, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insider.com\/pilk-pepsi-milk-tiktok-trend-lindsay-lohan-viral-ad-2022-12\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">others scorned<\/a> the idea of soda and dairy, decrying the idea of a drink that might be described as \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DriedBakedFish\/status\/1461467677927563265\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">curdled<\/a>.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>As a born and raised Texan in a life-long committed relationship with Dr. Pepper, I have always assumed that Pepsi was a beverage no one actually consumed and only existed as far as the Superbowl halftime show is concerned. In my experience, if someone was to voluntarily drink Pepsi, they were most likely a serial killer or Kendall Jenner <a href=\"https:\/\/time.com\/4726500\/pepsi-ad-kendall-jenner\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">attempting to broker a peace deal<\/a> between police officers and protesters taking to the streets. All that to say, I\u2019m not an impartial judge. <\/p>\n<p>And yet, as someone who has reviewed disturbing food trends ranging from <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2017\/04\/20\/i-tried-starbucks-unicorn-frappuccino-and-it-was-an-abomination\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">unicorn Frappucinos<\/a> to<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/10\/01\/i-tried-bud-lights-pumpkin-spice-seltzer-so-you-dont-have-to\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> pumpkin spice Bud Light hard seltzer<\/a>, I have to judge despite my bias. Although there are now countless TikTok and YouTube videos of users trying the controversial drink, and in some cases taking it to the extreme (I regret to inform you someone made <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@mythicalkitchen\/video\/7123362532227681582\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pilk cheese<\/a>), I couldn\u2019t find an official recipe. <\/p>\n<p>Obviously, it wasn\u2019t the ingredients I was concerned about but that the ratio of milk to soda could make or break the whole drink, so I tried two versions. First, a 1:1 ratio, and second, a nearly full glass of Pepsi with a heavy pour of milk, like one might prepare their iced cold brew or an affogato \u2014 if you can imagine Pilk belonging in such company. And for no reason other than personal preference, I tried both versions over ice. <\/p>\n<p>Rewatching the commercial, it appears Santa makes his Pilk with the 1:1 ratio, although the version Lohan drinks looks closer in color and appearance to my second version with the heavy pour (pictured left above). <\/p>\n<p>But enough with the technicalities \u2014 both were not<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pepsi ad executives jumped on the TikTok &#8216;dirty soda&#8217; trend and enlisted Lohan&#8217;s help.
