Everyone knows that the Taco Bell menu is stacked. From the Crunchwrap and Nacho Fries to the Doritos Locos Taco and Doubledecker Taco, it’s almost impossible to agree on the best item at the fast food restaurant. But, on the other hand, when it comes to the drinks, we all know which one reigns supreme—the Taco Bell exclusive Mountain Dew Baja Blast.
It may come as a surprise, but Mountain Dew’s Baja Blast is celebrating its 20th anniversary as a Taco Bell staple this year. To honor its platinum year, Mountain Dew is finally giving fans what they’ve been begging for for two decades: Baja Blast on grocery store shelves…all year.
Mountain Dew Baja Blast Coming To Stores All Year Round

The Baja Blast has had many variations over the years—like the iconic Freeze and the gelato that sold out in hours. However, none have been as coveted as the packaged Mountain Dew Baja Blast that you can occasionally find outside of Taco Bell’s doors. As with so many great food products, Mountain Dew’s Baja Blast and Baja Blast Zero Sugar have never been available for more than a few months at a time, usually during the summer. That is, until now.
For the first time ever, Mountain Dew’s Baja Blast soda will be available at retailers nationwide all year long.
So, starting this month, you won’t have to head to Taco Bell just to get your sweet, citrus treat. Instead, you’ll find both Mountain Dew Baja Blast and Mountain Dew Baja Blast Zero Sugar at most retailers where Mountain Dew is sold for the full year. No need to stockpile your Baja Blast now!
The only catch is that Mountain Dew is solely bringing Baja Blast to the stores all year for one year—meaning you get 365 days of Baja Blast bliss before you’re back to waiting for its return again. Don’t squander it.
To help commemorate the 20th anniversary and year of Baja Blast in stores, Mountain Dew is introducing a rewards program. For every Mountain Dew Baja Blast you buy, either in stores or at Taco Bell, you’ll earn coins that you can redeem for Baja gear, accessories, electronics, and Taco Bell deals on BajaBlast.com.
Now, run (or walk, you've got plenty of time) to your local grocery store for the sweet taste of Baja Blast at home—and cheers to a year of many more.
