There's nothing quite like a Sonic Slush on a hot summer day. But a pickle juice slush? I'm not so sure.

Sonic is jumping on the pickle juice bandwagon this June when they roll out a brand new flavor of their Slush drink. But lest you fear that it will taste just like pickle juice, we're here to put all your fears at ease. The new concoction will incorporate sugar, too (because Sonic), resulting in a somewhat sweet and vinegary combination. 

Our friends at Food and Wine got the chance to test the new Slush and report that the "beverage is bright green — in a way no brine of pickles ever has been — but this is Sonic, so everything should be a little fluorescent and playful."

They also complained that "the slush is a bit too sweet, as if overcorrecting for the acidity, but maybe this is what has to happen for America to acclimate to — and embrace — pickle-flavored soft drink."

What are your thoughts? Are you a pickle fanatic? And even if you are, would you ever be able to picture it in sugary slushy form? Will you try it? Leave a comment below, and let us know!
