Sonic is dressing up its menu for the holidays, and a few of the items come with price tags that are easy to like.
The chain's 2026 holiday lineup is available now in the Sonic app and arrives at restaurants nationwide on Monday, November 2.
The New Burger
The Smoked Gouda and Bacon Sonic Smasher layers melted smoked gouda, bacon, and black pepper aioli over hand-smashed Angus beef patties on a toasted potato bun. The double is about $8.49 and the triple is about $9.49, based on prices at a Los Angeles location.
The Santa-Themed Dessert Drink
The Santa Slush Float starts with a Slush mixed with cherry and vanilla flavors, then layers in vanilla soft serve and adds a cherry on top. It comes in a limited-time Santa-themed cup and costs around $2.99.
The Holiday Fountain Drinks
Two festive drinks round out the lineup. The Merry Berry Fizz is Sprite or Sprite Zero with cranberry syrup, at about $4.59. The Holiday Creamy Vanilla is Coca-Cola or Coca-Cola Zero with vanilla syrup and sweet cream, at about $5.09.
A Refreshed Combo
Sonic's $7 Big Deal Meal also has a new lineup. It now includes a Sonic Cheeseburger, medium Tots or Fries, small Premium Chicken Bites, and a medium drink, which can be a soft drink or iced tea. The Chicken Bites replace the sundae that used to come with the meal.
Where and When to Get It
You can order everything in the Sonic app today, and the full menu hits restaurants nationwide on November 2. Prices will vary by location, so check your local Sonic before you go.
The Takeaway
If you want to get a head start on the season, the app is the fastest way to try the new menu. The refreshed meal is also a budget-friendly way to eat something savory before you add a festive drink.
