The drink available at the No. 12 concession stand during the final round of the Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club, Sunday, April 12, 2015.

The drink “Stand 12” is again a popular choice at the Masters Tournament.

Jasmine Kilgore, a former Cross Creek High School student who works at concession stand 12 behind the 12th tee box, invented the concoction in 2015. The drink is half pink lemonade and half blue Powerade, topped with a splash of Sprite.

When poured into a cup, the pink and blue colors remain separated, creating a unique look.

“It looks cool and taste great,” said patron Tom Wilhelm, 23, of Charlotte, N.C. “I’m not sure how the colors stay separate, but I can’t wait to try it when I get home.”

The drink is sold only at the No. 12 stand, Kilgore said. When patrons buy one, employees tell them to spread the word.

“Someone needs to tell Coca-Cola about it,” said Michael Karson, of Winder, Ga. “This drink has the potential to be big.”
