Frequently Asked Questions
What is on the Sonic secret menu?+
The Sonic secret menu is a collection of unofficial, fan-created hacks the carhop crew can usually make if you describe them. Popular items include the Frito Pie, Sonic Sunrise, Purple Sprite, Pink Flamingo drink, Extreme Tots, Pickle-O's and the Ring Leader burger.
How do I order Sonic secret menu items?+
These items are not on the official board or app, so you order by describing the ingredients. For example, ask for an Ocean Water with cranberry juice and lemonade to get a Purple Sprite, or a cherry limeade with a splash of orange juice for a Sonic Sunrise. Availability depends on the location and ingredients in stock.
How much does the Sonic Frito Pie cost?+
Sonic's secret Frito Pie is priced like a small chili-cheese side, typically around $2.99. Because it is an off-menu build, the exact cost is rung up from the chili, cheese and Fritos used, so it can vary by location.
What is in a Purple Sprite at Sonic?+
A Purple Sprite is built on Sonic's Ocean Water (Sprite plus coconut) with added cranberry juice and lemonade, and some fans request Nerds candy mixed in. Priced like a medium specialty drink, it usually runs about $1.89.
Are Sonic secret menu prices the same everywhere?+
No. Sonic locations are largely franchised, so prices vary by region and by what the crew rings the off-menu item up as. The prices listed here reflect typical Sonic base-item pricing and should be treated as estimates, not guaranteed amounts.
