Mountain Dew’s New Peaches & Cream Soda Lands at KFC for a Limited Time

If you’re someone who keeps an eye out for new Mountain Dew flavors, there’s a sweet surprise waiting for you. And no, it’s not from Taco Bell this time. It’s KFC stealing the show with an exclusive new drink that feels like summer in a cup.

Mountain Dew has teamed up with KFC again. You probably remember their Sweet Lightning soda, right? That honey and peach combo that was made to pair with crispy fried chicken. It first showed up in 2019 and quickly became a fan favorite. Well, now it’s back—but with a creamy new twist.

Introducing Mountain Dew Sweet Lightning Peaches & Cream.

This isn’t just a rebrand. It’s a full-on upgrade. Inspired by the viral “dirty soda” trend on TikTok, this version adds a splash of vanilla cream to the original Sweet Lightning. The dirty soda trend is all about mixing soda with cream and syrups to make it taste like a dessert. And that’s exactly what’s going on here.

So what does it taste like? Imagine peaches and cream—like the dessert your grandma used to make in the summer. But fizzy. And with that signature Mountain Dew punch. It’s creamy, it’s sweet, and it’s got a little kick from the soda base. Basically, it’s dessert in a cup but with a fun, bubbly vibe.

People online are already hyped. One Reddit user said they’re ready to drive 20 minutes just to try it. Another person said it sounds amazing and can’t wait to taste it. If you’re into drinks that feel nostalgic but still trendy, this one checks all the boxes.

The timing couldn’t be better. This new release is part of a summer campaign tied to the movie “F1: The Movie.” KFC is going big. They’re also bringing back their Fill Ups deal. You can grab tenders, fried chicken, or the Famous Bowl combo—all for just $7. Pair that with the Peaches & Cream soda, and you’ve got a meal that feels like a summer break.

But heads up, this drink is only around for a limited time. So if you’re curious, don’t wait too long. Pop into a KFC, grab your favorite meal, and try the new Sweet Lightning Peaches & Cream. It might just be your new summer favorite.
