Much to the delight of [Mountain Dew](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mtn-dew-summer-freeze) fans everywhere, the brand has announced the debut of the new Mountain Dew Zero Sugar Frost Bite.

Mountain Dew first rolled out its [Zero Sugar variety](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pepsi-zero) in January 2020, and as you might have guessed, the new line is sugar-free. The latest addition to the Zero Sugar lineup is the brand's popular Frost Bite soda, which is big on melon flavor.

Though there's no official release date yet, Mountain Dew Zero Sugar Frost Bite is expected to hit store shelves very soon. In fact, the new Zero Sugar Frost Bite soda is already listed on the [PepsiCo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-mountain-dew) website, and is described as “a burst of icy refreshment and cool melon."
