Swig Prepares to Expand Dirty™ Soda in the Lone Star State
MCKINNEY, Texas (Sept. 20, 2022) – Texas’ pop culture just got even better because Swig – the one-of-a-kind, Utah-born customizable drink shop – will open its second location in the Lone Star State on Friday, Sept. 23, in McKinney!
Located at 5225 W. University Drive, the drive-thru soda shop will be the hot spot for friends and families to bubble up their day with colorful, carbonated refreshments that have a signature dirty twist. The new opening will feature Swig’s signature Dirty™ Soda – a combination of popular soft drinks and delicious flavor-filled mix-ins – and mark its 44th location systemwide.
“We’re incredibly excited to be growing and sparkling with a second location in Texas,” said Swig Founder Nicole Tanner. “At Swig, we pride ourselves on our one-of-a-kind drinks, delicious treats and friendly service, so it’s amazing to see the shop become a staple in various communities because of the continuing effort of our staff and the service they provide each guest.”
On opening weekend, guests will be able to enjoy free drinks from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Guests can mix and match their favorite fountain drink with a wide combination of flavors, creams, purees and fresh fruits. The popular drink concept will also offer Refreshers, Revivers – Swig’s proprietary energy drink – boba teas, sweet teas, hot chocolate and treats like a variety of cookies and pretzel bites with different dipping options to satisfy everyone’s sweet and savory cravings.
Swig currently operates 43 locations in Arizona, Idaho, Oklahoma, Texas and Utah. It opened its first Texas location in Fairview earlier this year with plans to have 55 locations in six states by the end of 2022.
