A popular international restaurant chain is debuting an all-new menu inspired by the growing trend of dirty soda creations.
Several other fast food chains have announced similar creations in the not-so-distant past, but this latest drop of summery mocktails is also being advertised as one that can easily be shaken into an ice-cold cocktail.
Heading to TGI Fridays restaurants nationwide are four “bold” new drink creations that take fan-favorite soft drinks like Cherry Coke, Sprite and Dr Pepper and turn them upside down with a twist (and a shot of rum, whiskey, vodka, or cognac, for customers 21+ who desire it).

The non-alcoholic dirty sodas start at $3.99 and include creations like Cherry Cream Cola, Strawberry SZN, Dr. Vibe and Dirty Sunshine. Guests can make them “more ‘Fridays'” with recommended shot pairings for just $3 more, official descriptions below:
- Cherry Cream Cola – Classic meets smooth. Add Jack Daniel’s to add the adulting.
- Strawberry SZN – Sweet and summery with sprinkles; Malibu makes it tropical.
- Dr. Vibe – A gummy- and sprinkles-garnished twist; dial it up with Hennessy.
- Dirty Sunshine – Passionfruit cream meets Red Bull. Go bold with Tito’s Handmade Vodka.
TGI Fridays’ new dirty soda recipes will only be available for a limited time this summer, while supplies last, so you might not want to sleep on this release.

And because people rarely go to restaurants just to grab a soda, the chain is enticing customers with a new limited-time menu collaboration launched in partnership with cable network TBS and dubbed “The Flavor Show.”
“We know our guests come to Fridays for bold flavor, great value and a good time,” Fridays CEO Ray Blanchette shared in a statement. “The Flavor Show is another way we are owning that identity—through innovative new dishes, creative beverages and an indulgent dish inspired by TBS that celebrates timeless flavors and unforgettable shows.”
No longer is TBS the initialism for Turner Broadcasting System; it now means Tots, Boneless Wings, and Sliders, and refers to the shareable platter of handmade loaded tater tots, boneless chicken wings, and beef sliders TGI Fridays is serving up alongside a mountain of crispy French fries.
“From the screen to the table, this is the ultimate summer mashup,” TBS EVP of marketing Melissa Chambless added. “This partnership is the perfect combination to celebrate the nostalgia of summer movie nights with fresh experiences around the dinner table.”
The TBS menu collab is available now at participating locations nationwide, also only for a limited time.
