OKLAHOMA CITY, July 5, 2011 // PRNewswire // -- It's summer, it's hot and SONIC®, America's Drive-In®, is celebrating with flavorful new menu items in July and August. Just in time for National Hot Dog and Ice Cream Month, SONIC is offering for a limited time the Baja Dog and a line of Sundae Shakes.

SONIC's new Sundae Shakes are available in three 100% sippable flavor adventures – Turtle, Strawberry Dream and Classic Hot Fudge. The treats are all served in SONIC's new metallic-looking cup, specially designed to resemble the classic metallic cups from vintage soda fountains and ice cream parlors.

For the Baja Dog, SONIC tops a Premium Beef Hot Dog with melty pepper jack cheese, tomato slices, diced onions and spicy jalapenos all on a warm, poppy seed bun.

Three Strawsome Flavors
