Pepsi introduces wild new craft soda lineup that includes pickle inspired drink

As a seasoned gamer and adventurer of the culinary world, I must say that PepsiCo’s new DRIPS lineup has piqued my curiosity like no other! With a background of exploring diverse game worlds filled with unexpected combinations, this real-life taste adventure seems right up my alley.


In a fresh development, PepsiCo is launching a series of groundbreaking beverage creations that challenge conventional taste pairings. One such drink is modeled after the sensationally popular food trend of 2024 – pickles!

If you’re someone who enjoys exploring and tasting different types of snacks and drinks, you may find yourself drawn to the innovative selection that Pepsi is testing out in September – the DRIPS lineup.

As a gaming enthusiast, here’s my spin: “I’m pumped about the upcoming lineup from this brand! They’re launching a whopping eight new drinks, each inspired by legendary PepsiCo brews like Mountain Dew, Rockstar, and Lipton Iced Tea. These aren’t just your regular drinks; they’ve been infused with fruit syrups, creams, popping boba, real fruits, and berries, all to give my taste buds an electrifying experience!

Without further ado, the new drinks menu includes:

  • Starry Dragon Fruit Blast – Starry and watermelon garnished with dragon fruit.
  • Dew Dill Chill – Mountain Dew, cucumber and basil garnished with a dill pickle spear.
  • Dew Spicy Splash – Mountain Dew, lime, chamoy and Tajin garnished with a gummy worm.
  • Lipton Mango Horchata – Lipton Lemon iced tea with mango, and coconut horchata over strawberry boba, finished with cold foam.
  • Tropicana Cotton Candy Lemonade – Tropicana Lemonade over candy boba, finished with floating cotton candy.
  • Rockstar Pineapple Upside Down Cake – Rockstar Focus with orange, pineapple, and grenadine finished with whipped cream and a colorful orange wheel.

If you’re keen on testing some of these combinations, you may have to embark on a journey, since they are exclusively available for purchase at this time in New York, through the Pepsi truck that operates on a mobile basis.

The truck can be found at Domino Park, which is on the Williamsburg waterfront, until September 29. It will be there on Saturdays and Sundays between 1 PM and 7 PM, and the prices begin at $6.99.

Based on the popularity of the pickle trend in 2024, it’s likely that PepsiCo’s Dew Dill Chill will be their top-selling beverage come September.

2024 saw a variety of pickle-related products launched by multiple brands. Among the most unusual was the introduction of pickle-flavored cupcakes.
