When you want to indulge in burgers and fries, your local fast food joint is the place to be. While you’re at it, you might even be able to sneak in some caffeine in the form of soda, iced tea, or maybe even coffee. But if you’re all about energy drinks, you won’t have much luck at a fast food restaurant.
Wait, what? Red Bull at a fast food restaurant? You bet. What’s more is that Sonic will be serving frozen Red Bull slushies, instead of the iconic Red Bull cans. According to an article on Bloomberg, Sonic hopes to “pull in the so-called young, hungry males who have remained loyal fast food customers even as eating habits shift in the U.S.”
Yet, considering most fast food chains have released healthier menu items, it’s interesting how Sonic has generally avoided that path. The Bloomberg article also shares that the restaurant will be releasing cake batter shakes and adding more bacon to their BLT sandwiches. While you’re at it, you can also snag items like a foot-long chili cheese hot dog and an Oreo cheesecake shake.
Do you have to be a “young, hungry male” to do so?
Well, hopefully not.
But energy drinks are popular with young adults, so it makes sense.
Red Bull already has a loyal following.
However, one can’t help but wonder if customers will prefer the drink in its original form.
Wine slushies, for example, are amazing.
In terms of fast food, Taco Bell offers frozen drinks, like the Mountain Dew Baja Blast Freeze.
The fast food world has yet to see an energy drink slushie, though.
Will it help Sonic stand out in a world of Whoppers and Big Macs?
Only time will tell.
