Fans can once again score the flavor exclusively at Little Caesars for a limited time only and pair it with Crazy Puffs® in a $4.99 Crave Combo

DETROIT, May 6, 2026 – Flavor-seekers rejoice: Little Caesars® and Mountain Dew are turning up the heat once again with the highly anticipated return of Mountain Dew Mango Rush, the tropical flavor created exclusively for Little Caesars last year.

Following strong consumer response to its initial launch, Little Caesars® and Mountain Dew are reintroducing Mango Rush as a limited-time exclusive for summer 2026, rolling out nationwide starting May 18. The beverage delivers a bold, delicious mango flavor with the signature refreshing citrus kick Mountain Dew fans love, in a new limited-edition can design created for Little Caesars.

To sweeten the deal, Little Caesars is giving fans another reason to hurry into stores with the Crazy Puff Crave Combo – a flavor-packed pairing that delivers on both taste and value. For just $4.99**, customers can enjoy a 16-ounce can of Mountain Dew Mango Rush alongside a 4-pack of fan-favorite Crazy Puffs®—an amazing deal featuring two delicious favorites, including an exclusive, limited-time Mountain Dew flavor you can’t get anywhere else, all for under $5. Designed to be enjoyed together, the combo brings outstanding taste to every bite and sip, with the bold, refreshing flavor of Mountain Dew Mango Rush pairing perfectly with Little Caesars pepperoni Crazy Puffs for a next-level experience.

“At Little Caesars, we’re always looking for ways to bring our customers even more irresistible flavor at an incredible value. That’s why we’re thrilled to be bringing back Mountain Dew Mango Rush with the ultimate deal by pairing it with our Crazy Puffs at an unbeatable price,” said Greg Hamilton, Chief Marketing Officer, Little Caesars.

“Mountain Dew Mango Rush was a top-performing launch in 2025. This partnership with Little Caesars focuses on delivering bold, unexpected flavor profiles that resonate with our core consumers. We are building on the momentum of previous exclusives to deepen our presence in the national restaurant market. We are excited to give fans another chance to enjoy the refreshing mango twist and this delicious pairing,” said Scott Finlow, Chief Marketing Officer, PepsiCo Away From Home.

Originally released in May 2025, Mountain Dew Mango Rush continues the momentum of exclusive, limited-time offerings from PepsiCo at Little Caesars®.

** Plus tax where applicable. Available at participating locations for a limited time, while supplies last. No substitutions. Not valid with any other offers. Price may vary. Prices higher in AK, HI, CA; many areas in NY, OR, WA; and third-party online sites.
