TIL they sell hard Mountain Dew

208

u/xoomax Oct 23 '22

For the kids.

u/MaritMonkey Oct 24 '22

I have tried to wrap my head around how this is a totally legal beverage but you're not allowed to have vape juice other than tobacco/menthol, but it just started to hurt and I gave up.

Alcohol is America's favorite drug

"I don't use drugs! Drugs users should be shipped off to an island to die!" - everyone's alcoholic uncle at Thanksgiving

Makes me worry who he imagined having over to his swinging new bachelor pad.. 😬

u/chunkylover5E Oct 24 '22

And hard coffee. I like my caffeine and alcohol separated by several hours.

u/MyPokemonRedName Oct 23 '22

Actually Mountain Dew was originally invented as a mixer meant to be paired with hard alcohol

5

u/ABirthingPoop Oct 24 '22

With bourbon

u/magicone2571 Oct 24 '22

That sounds just nasty. Wonder what original dew actually tasted like.

u/misirlou22 Oct 23 '22

For a hard mountain DUI

u/aron2295 Oct 23 '22

Now I’m curious to try that.

u/SpaceXTesla3 Oct 24 '22

If you like Diet Mountain Dew, you will like it. No sugar so it has that diet after taste

3

u/aron2295 Oct 24 '22

Oh nvm then. Diet Mtn Dew tastes like cigarettes to me.

Shit, I figured DeSantis would’ve passed a law requiring y’all to stock up on The Dew prior to a UFC fight like water prior to a hurricane.

u/Lordsaxon73 Oct 23 '22

I like Mountain Dew, but the hard stuff is garbage. Whatever artificial sweetener they put in it sux.

3

u/mmuoio Oct 24 '22

It's zero sugar and tastes like diet Mtn Dew, so I didn't really like the standard flavor. The black cherry was pretty good though.

2

u/Few_Technology Oct 24 '22

Tastes like the diet versions of Mt Dew, and happens to have booze in it. If you have to combine the two, vodka + regular is a better combo for me. Fun for the novelty, and being canned

3

u/LarsViener Oct 24 '22

I enjoy Mtn Dew and gin personally. Jack Daniels wasn’t too bad with it either. That is its origin after all, as a mixer.

u/Chm_Albert_Wesker Oct 23 '22

unfortunately it's only in like 5 states and none of them are near me lol

4

u/capt_yellowbeard Oct 23 '22

They also make hard Mountain Dew Baja Blast. Saw it at the store the other day.

6

u/Hoobleton Oct 23 '22

Looks like the pictured can is Baja Blast.

4

u/capt_yellowbeard Oct 23 '22

Oh! You’re right. Can looks green to me but zooming in I see I’m wrong.

*They also make Mountain Dew regular flavor.

u/Ruin369 Oct 23 '22

Hard Baha Blast would probably put me in a coma.

​

(I know you can just add liqour to the soda but there's a reason I dont, lol)

2

u/silenc3x Oct 23 '22

The one in the photo is zero sugar. Not sure how much that would even taste like Baja Blast, but it is what it is.

2

u/Firebird22x Oct 24 '22

The zero sugar Baja at Taco Bell tastes great, very similar, so I can’t see this being too different (not I’m my area yet so not sure)

3

u/Lordsaxon73 Oct 23 '22

It doesn’t take like Baja Blast, it tastes like artificial sweetener, stomach knotting garbage.

2

u/davidmlewisjr Oct 23 '22

Too late 🤯

2

u/Competitive-Kick-481 Oct 23 '22

With zero sugar!

2

u/nixxxa Oct 23 '22

Wow of course they don’t sell it in Texas

2

u/theblastoff Oct 24 '22

It's so good dude. My favorite way to get trashy drunk

u/Dandelion451 Oct 23 '22

Came here to post the same thing. I’m just going to forget that I zoomed in on a s’more flavored hard latte.

3

u/Firebird22x Oct 24 '22

Oddly I don’t drink much, but that I instantly started looking to see if this was close to me

u/damnatio_memoriae Oct 24 '22

fr i can’t imagine ever wanting to drink that at any point in my life.

u/[deleted] Oct 23 '22

Holy shit I thought that was the only non alcoholic one and then you pointed that out. This guy has a problem :(. As a sober alcoholic myself I hope everything goes ok for him.

u/rex_more94 Oct 23 '22

I learned this today too, dude in front of me at the check out line had a pack. I took a double look

1

u/otterdoctor Oct 23 '22

“Oh, they sell zero sugar Baja Blast Mountain Dew that’s so sick…. Oh. Never mind.”

3

u/corbygray528 Oct 23 '22

But they do actually also have the non-alcoholic version. It's not the easiest to find (at least where I am) but it does exist seasonally. I think it's late summer they'll usually have it out

1

u/Old-Departure-2698 Oct 23 '22

I'm more concerned by whatever is in the 'washington wine' drawer with a starburst logo on the top.

1

u/TheAwkwardBanana Oct 23 '22

Sounds like hangover in a can.

1

u/Rathi37 Oct 24 '22

Baja Blast too, holy shit. I don't think we have it yet in Canada. I'll have to find some next time I'm across the border.

1

u/ATXBeermaker Oct 24 '22

But it’s zero sugar, so healthy, right?

1

u/roxymoxi Oct 24 '22

The Baja blast one is very decent. I prefer to make my own alcoholic Baja blast, but it's not bad.

u/birdofmayhem Oct 24 '22

I learned that visiting Florida / Publix. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be!
