Good news for all the former (or maybe even current) crayon eaters out there: Your childhood Crayola favorites might’ve tasted like nothing but wax and paper, but now there’s an alternative. You can actually taste your favorite crayon hues and no one will look at you like you’re crazy.

Jones Soda and Crayola have teamed up to turn the world’s most iconic crayons into sweet sips and the collection is so downright adorable that you’ll immediately be transported back to your kindergarten classroom. And this time, you’re allowed to have as much of your favorite soda as you want—I mean, you’re an adult, after all!
The Brand New Soda Pack
I’ve personally spent years wondering where Crayola got its inspiration for foodie crayon colors like Razzmatazz, Granny Smith Apple, and Macaroni and Cheese. It turns out those flavors do exist in the universe, though it took some time to whip them up in soda form.
Jones Soda just released a limited-edition pack of six sodas in flavors that were created in collaboration with Crayola. Each soda is directly inspired by a specific Crayola color and you’ll recognize some of the most popular crayon picks:
- Fruit Punch Soda, inspired by Razzmatazz
- Orange & Cream Soda, inspired by Sunset Orange
- Pineapple Cream Soda, inspired by Dandelion
- Green Apple Soda, inspired by Granny Smith Apple
- Berry Lemonade Soda, inspired by Robin’s Egg Blue
- Fufu Berry Soda, inspired by Razzle Dazzle Rose
Don’t worry: The Crayola x Jones Soda six-pack doesn’t actually taste like any of those crayons. But you’ll clearly see the connection in the sodas’ bright, bold coloring and their adorable Crayola-like bottle designs, which look just like those iconic crayon wrappers.
Where to Buy the Crayola x Jones Soda Pack
The Crayola x Jones Soda soda pack is available to purchase now. It is a limited-edition release that won’t stick around forever, though. It was created as part of Jones Soda’s “Dirty 30” 30th anniversary celebration and the collection will fade once back-to-school season wraps up this fall.
You can find this rainbow-hued soda collab wherever you like to pick up a pack of Jones Soda. However, if you choose to order it online, you’ll get some extra perks: online orders come with a Crayola x Jones Soda six-pack box, four limited-edition coloring pages, and an eight-pack of Crayola crayons.
Just remember to keep those sodas and your fresh crayon pack separate. You won’t want to accidentally try to drink the wrong item, what with their close appearances, after all.
