What Is the Red, White & Blue Slush Float?
The Red, White & Blue Slush Float is back for summer 2026, timed to coincide with America’s 250th birthday. The layered drink combines blue raspberry slush, vanilla soft serve, and real strawberries — priced at $2.50 all summer long. It’s being served in limited-edition cups featuring designs inspired by iconic U.S. landmarks.
How Can SONIC Rewards Members Earn Bonus Points?
SONIC Rewards members can earn 250 bonus points on qualifying Red, White & Blue Slush Float purchases made through the SONIC App on June 12, June 19, and June 25. Those dates align with USA match days in the upcoming global soccer tournament, making the promotion a solid pairing for fans watching the games.
