I have always heard of folks using a cola when basting a ham, but never a citrus drink. It's flavorful and the sugar in it works well, giving a sweet delicious glaze that will make your ham shine. The weight and size of the ham does not have to be 7 lbs. This is a rather large ham, so feel free to use a smaller or larger ham, whatever you will need.

[email protected]The ham was a bit dry. I think I would cook it for less time next time.

[email protected]This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less Mt. Dew or adding some tart fruit, like cranberries, to balance out the sweetness.

[email protected]This is a great recipe for a weeknight meal. It's easy to throw together and the ham is always a crowd-pleaser. I like to serve it with roasted potatoes and a side of green beans.
