Delicious cocktails full of flavor and buckets of fun, Applebee’s Bacardi Buckets include:

NEW Strawberry Daq-A-Rita Bucket, two favorites taste better than one when you combine a strawberry Bacardi Superior Rum daiquiri and Patron Silver Tequila margarita.
Rum Breeze Bucket, "double” the rum for double the fun with Bacardi Superior Rum, Malibu Coconut Rum, blue curacao, lemon, pineapple juice and lemon lime soda.
Party on the Beach Bucket, get those tastebuds dancing with Bacardi Lime Rum, peach schnapps, passion fruit, pineapple and orange juice.

But that’s not all - toast to spring with Applebee’s Cerveza & Sips! Make your margarita your way with Applebee’s $6 Watermelon Mana Margarita featuring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s ultra-premium Teremana Tequila Blanco, triple sec, watermelon, and lime. Guests can choose to add some heat with a Tajin® rim and a hint of jalapeño or make it smoky with Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston’s Dos Hombres Mezcal each for $1 more. Or, relax with a cold Dos Equis Lager Especial draft beer, served in Applebee’s signature Brewtus glass.

Plus, guests of all ages can enjoy Applebee’s NEW Dirty Fountain Sodas! Guests can “dirty up” their favorite soda with a swirl of cream, whipped cream, and a cherry for $1 more.

“This spring, it’s all about vacation vibes and variety at Applebee’s,” said Nathan Grover, Executive Director, Bar & Beverage at Applebee’s. “Grab your friends and enjoy buckets of fun – and rum - in three tropical flavors, or sip back and relax with our $6 Watermelon Mana Margarita made your way! Plus, guests of all ages can get in on the fun with our new Dirty Fountain Sodas!”
