Co-Branded Donut-Flavored Sodas

'Cheerwine Kreme' Combines Cherry Soda with the Taste of Donuts

Both Cheerwine and Krispy Kreme are two highly successful Southern businesses that have now joined forces to create a hybrid soda called 'Cheerwine Kreme.' For those who are looking for the ultimate sugar rush, this donut-flavored soda is the perfect choice.

Cheerwine Kreme is a new soft drink that combines the taste of a Krispy Kreme donut with Cheerwine's iconic black cherry soda for a hybrid flavor combination that will satisfy even the most intense sugar craving. The co-branded soda is an extension of an earlier collaboration between the two brands, which involves the creation of a Krispy Kreme donut with a Cheerwine-flavored cherry creme filling.

While certainly not the most diet-friendly drink available, Cheerwine Kreme is sure to appeal to both donut and soda-lovers alike.
