There is already pickle juice sports drinks, chips, and even vodka, but now Sonic is getting in on the pickled craze with its own Pickle Juice Slush. Set to join the chain's popular summer drink lineup, the sour slushie is perfect for anyone who savors every last drop from the pickle jar.
According to recent reports, Sonic's new Pickle Juice Slush will consist of ice blended with a tangy pickle-flavored syrup. The result is a bright green drink with an intense pickle flavor. The addition of pickle-flavored syrup to Sonic's menu also means that consumers will be able to enjoy the savory flavor in milkshakes, sundaes, and even burgers -- all for an extra charge of course.
While pickle juice treats have always been popular in certain regions, Sonic's new slushie signals the growing demand for pickle juice products on a national level.
