How Many MTN DEW Flavors Are There?
I appreciate a delicious novelty soda pop as much as the next sugar-loving ding-dong, but I don't spend a ton of time in the supermarket's soda aisle. That's why I shrugged when a colleague posed the question: How many flavors of MTN DEW are there, exactly?
The question came after MTN DEW Purple Thunder made its debut, followed shortly by the release of MTN DEW Spark and the 2022 return of MTN DEW Typhoon. "I mean, it's one soda brand," I scoffed in my best Lucille Bluth impression. "How many varieties could there be?"
Reader, the answer is: 28. There are currently 28 dadgum flavors of MTN DEW. That's so many. And that's not including limited edition flavors or flavors that have been discontinued.
With that, I'd like to review the sheer abundance of high-octane, hummina-hummina, toxic-sludge-tinted flavors MTN DEW currently has to offer. Why? Because knowledge is power, my friends. If extraterrestrials invade and demand to sample humankind's most impressive beverages, you can be their guide. Behold, the current MTN DEW canon, with only alcoholic Hard MTN Dew products excluded.

To understand the depths of MTN DEW's in-store offerings, you must look beyond the snot-green hue of classic DEW. Depending on your grocery store of choice, you can also score flavors like Major Melon and MTN DEW Spark, a relatively new member of the DEW fam said to resemble raspberry lemonade.
