The “dirty soda” trend has officially made its way to central Indiana. Swig, a drive-thru soda-fountain chain, just opened its second shop in Indianapolis, and little foodies are lined up to try it. Literally, they are lined up: When the new Carmel location opened, you could anticipate waiting at least 30 minutes, if not an hour or more, in the drive-thru line at Swig!
The Dirt on Dirty Sodas
In the most basic terms, a dirty soda is a soft drink with “stuff” in it: half and half, flavored syrups, fruit purees. It’s all served over generous amounts of pellet ice. Swig has more than 70 different flavor combinations, and every beverage is customizable.
The menu is huge and can be overwhelming, so if you need some suggestions, here are some of the most popular dirty sodas at Swig:
Texas Tab: Dr Pepper, vanilla and coconut cream
Strawberry Breeze: water, sugar free coconut, sugar free vanilla, strawberry puree, frozen strawberry and coconut cream.
Shark Attack: Sprite, lemonade, and blue raspberry, topped with a gummy shark.
Swig mostly just serves beverages. But you can also find snacks like pretzel bites and mini chocolate chip cookies on the menu.
