Does Sonic have a secret menu? No, not officially. The “Sonic secret menu” is fan-made: custom orders built from Sonic’s real drinks, flavor add-ins and toppings. You can order any of them by asking for the base drink and add-ins by name. Prices are the base item plus any add-ins.

How to Order a Sonic Secret Menu Drink
- Order by ingredients, not by nickname. Staff may not know fan names like “Pink Flamingo”.
- Start with a base (Sprite, Dr Pepper, lemonade, a slush), then add flavors, real fruit or cream.
- Use the Sonic app: drinks can be customised with add-ins before you order.
- Add-ins and flavors vary by location and season.
