Ah, pickles. You either love them, hate them, or love to hate them—but for those that fall in the first camp, Sonic is bringing back a few briney fan-favorite menu items.

The drive-in chain's belovedBig Dill cheeseburger, Pickle Juice Slush, and Pickle Fries are all heading back to menus. And to celebrate their return, Sonic is giving fans half-price Pickle Juice Slushes when they order via the app. 

"Our pickle-forward menu innovations have become some of our most popular, so much so that they’ve often sold out quicker than we anticipated. Our pickle-obsessed guests have been patiently waiting for their return, and we’re very excited to offer them once again for a limited time," Sonic Vice President of Culinary & Menu Innovation Mackenzie Gibson said in a press release.

Here's the full lineup: 

  • Big Dill: Features a 100% pure seasoned beef patty piled with crispy pickle fries, crinkle-cut pickle slices, a creamy dill-infused ranch sauce, chopped lettuce, and melty American cheese on a toasted brioche bun. 
  • Pickle Juice Slush: Includes the flavors of a salty dill pickle with sweet slush that's said to taste like "you're sipping out of the pickle jar." Whether that's a good thing or bad thing is up to you. 
  • Pickle Fries: Fry-shaped dill pickle spears that are battered and fried into crispy perfection with a side of ranch sauce for dipping. 


All three menu items will be available from August 8 through August 28.
