Dirty soda started as a nickname, and now every soda brand wants in

  • Dirty soda began as a nickname from regular customers for their favorite order at a small Utah drive-thru called Swig, opened in 2010 in St. George, Utah, where an early drink mixed coconut syrup with Dr Pepper.
  • Swig claims credit for the name 'dirty soda,' though several other Utah soda shops contest the origin of the trend.
  • In April 2023, PepsiCo launched Dirty Mountain Dew nationwide, mixing the classic soda with a creamy finish inspired by the dirty soda trend.
  • Major soda brands joined the trend in 2023, with PepsiCo launching Dirty Mountain Dew and Dr Pepper reintroducing its Creamy Coconut flavor, both inspired by the customized soda culture.
