Cinnabon Is Getting in on the Dirty Soda Game 

Drinks trends are like buses: You wait for ages, one rears its head, and then suddenly, there are a million different versions from every chain around vying for your attention. This year, it seems to be dirty soda’s turn. It’s been a minute since we paid attention to dirty soda, but in the last few weeks, it looks like it’s set to be the drink of 2026. Burger King’s just dropped a new dirty soda-inspired option. Twizzlers Straws are coming in a dirty soda flavor. And now, Cinnabon’s releasing two new limited-time “Swirled Sodas,” which are its take on this soda-and-cream combo.

These flavors are available right now, and the chain is bringing them out in tandem with the dual release of new seasons of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and The Bachelorette, the former of which stars Taylor Frankie Paul, and the latter of which is about to star Taylor Frankie Paul. This may mean nothing to some of you, but to all you reality TV fans out there, it’ll be big news. Here’s what we know about these drinks, and why they’re coming out in line with these shows.

What Are These New Cinnabon Dirty Sodas?

The first of Cinnabon’s new Swirled Sodas is its Saints & Cinnas drink. This creamy beverage starts with whatever soda you want, and then splashes in a big ol’ glug of vanilla cream, topping it off with a generous sprinkle of Makra cinnamon. The idea behind this one is that it tastes a little like one of its cinnamon rolls, which we’re very into. 

Second up is the Raspberry Revelations Swirled Soda, which again begins with a soda of your choosing. This soda is then hit with raspberry syrup and a vanilla swirl. Expect this one to be tart, sweet, and a little bit like ice cream. 

Cinnabon’s Swirled Sodas are available now through April 23, so you’ve got plenty of time to try them – although they’re only being served at select locations. These drinks are also debuting at the same time as Cinnabon’s new limited-time packaging, which is where it marks the release of the two new seasons of the TV shows mentioned above, with a picture of Taylor Frankie Paul on the side of each box. It’s doing that with these drinks, too, though, in a kind of left-of-center way…

What Do These Drinks Have to Do with Those Shows?

Well, dirty soda is a big deal in Utah and amongst the Mormon community, which doesn’t drink alcohol, hot coffee, or tea. As a result, this creamy, dreamy drink is the beverage of choice for a lot of folks in the state, and it’s featured heavily on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. And now, with Paul’s crossover into that other franchise, there’s never been a better time to make it mainstream. It doesn’t hurt that Cinnabon has dozens of locations across Utah, either.
