They’re back. Yes, it’s once again time to blast off into the world of Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast and its many flavors.

And, in 2024, the Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast is making its triumphant return, but it won’t just be a seasonal drink anymore. Nope, this Mix Pack will now be available to buy year-round in select states. Let’s take a closer look at the flavors, availability, and other details of 2024’s Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast Mix Pack.

Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast Mix Pack’s Four 2024 Flavors
Baja Blast is fabulous in any form. In fact, we can’t wait to try it out as gelato. But there’s a certain perfect wackiness to the Hard MTN Dew version of it. We love the bright colors and fun animal mascots that decorate the cans. In 2024, the Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast Mix Pack will feature the following flavors: Baja Blast, Baja Blast Mango, Baja Blast Pineapple, and Baja Blast Punch.
The Mix Pack contains twelve 12oz cans and offers three cans of each flavor. The official website shares more details about the Baja Blast drink, noting, “MTN DEW lovers of legal drinking age can experience the bold, citrus flavors of the soft drink they know and love with 5% alcohol by volume (ABV). It contains zero caffeine, no added sugar, 2.2g of total carbs, and is 100 calories per 12 oz. serving.”

What Does Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast Taste Like?
Ah, the question of the hour. What does Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast taste like? Well, Nerdist was lucky enough to try a can of Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast, and we’re happy to report back on its taste. For now, we’ve only tried the original. But let us tell you, Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast is a lot of fun. This can of hard soda was a sweet and tangy experience with just the right amount of carbonation. (And very little taste of alcohol at all.) For some, the flavor might veer on the too-sweet side, but for those with a sweet tooth, it’s just right. And the sweetness could keep you from accidentally drinking too many cans of this alcoholic version of Baja Blast.
Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast, of course, tastes very similar to Baja Blast itself. It may seem obvious, but these days, with so many adaptations and iterations of favorites, it’s worth noting. In this case, there are no big surprises. So, if you’re a Baja Blast fan, then you’ll love the taste of Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast. The hard version of the soda is a little more thick or syrupy feeling than the plain soda version. But, not in bad way. And that mouth feel enhances the fun of trying a drink that’s a little wacky.
Notably, the color of Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast perfectly captures the exact shade of regular Baja Blast. The color is half the flavor experience we feel, so we were glad to see it done right. And who doesn’t want to drink an eerie blue-green concoction?
Other Hard Soda Fun
In celebration of the Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast Mix Pack’s new year-round availability, Hard MTN Dew is trying to blast off into space. It hopes to be the first beverage abducted by aliens. March 20 was Alien Abduction Day, after all. Hard MTN Dew didn’t get abducted by aliens, but it did have a good time. You can check out some of the shenanigans above, so crack open a hard Baja Blast and enjoy.
