\"Sonic<\/p>\n

What is the Sonic Lemonberry Slush Float?<\/h3>\n

Sonic has combined four summertime elements into one drink, from top to bottom: real strawberries, classic Sonic slush, 100% real ice cream, and lemonade slush.<\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

Since I had to get it from the drive-thru and bring it home (see below), I used my own straw and spoon to taste all the elements.<\/p>\n

\"Sonic<\/p>\n

The strawberries on top have the unmistakable flavor of frozen fruit. I don\u2019t expect a national fast-food chain to use fresh berries, but I have never found frozen strawberries to taste that great.<\/p>\n

\"Sonic<\/p>\n

Below that, there’s the \u201cclassic Sonic slush.\u201d Does that just mean a slush without any flavoring? Because that\u2019s exactly what it tastes like: nothing. I guess it\u2019s supposed to mix with the strawberries, but I don\u2019t see the point.<\/p>\n

\"Sonic<\/p>\n

The ice cream is what makes this a float, rather than just a slush, and it\u2019s the reason you need a spoon instead of just a straw. It\u2019s just what you\u2019d expect from soft-serve vanilla. It\u2019s enjoyable, but nothing amazing.<\/p>\n

Since the lemonade slush was on the bottom, it was what I tasted when I stuck my straw into the cup and sucked. It was by far the best part -\u2014 tart, refreshing, and summery. Unfortunately, I quickly depleted the lemonade part and was sad when I only had the ice cream.<\/p>\n

I had hoped the flavors would mix together better, but mostly I just tasted each element on its own, even when I wasn\u2019t trying to keep them separate, and even though they looked like they were somewhat mixed.<\/p>\n

Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n

When I pulled into a stall to order in the usual Sonic way, the red button timed out twice without anyone ever helping me, so I had to go to the drive-thru, where I kindly told them what had happened. Also, they gave me salt packets but no syrup for my French toast sticks. So, at the risk of sounding like a Karen, my experience at the Salt Lake City Sonic gets a 2 out of 10. Yelp review over. But I\u2019m rating the drink on its own merits.<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

The Lemonberry Slush Float is fine, but next time I think I\u2019ll just get a regular lemonade slush.<\/p>\n
