The best part about going to my school is being able to attend all the basketball games! I’ve always loved cheering on my team, but it’s even better cheering them on with my friends. Whenever we have away games, my friends and I always watch them together.

For game nights, I’m always sure to stock up on my favorite drinks and foods from the grocery store. For drinks, that includes Diet Coke® and Sprite®–two of my favorites! Both these drinks are so refreshing and the perfect thing to reach for after a long day of class.

For this quick recipe, I found some flavors that would pair well with popcorn and the drinks. I picked cinnamon sugar, a white cheddar mix, cranberries, and pumpkin pie. I’d recommend going lighter with the cinnamon sugar and pumpkin spice because they can be fairly strong, but you can use as much white cheddar mix and cranberries as you’d like.
