Faygo and summer go together swimmingly well, especially for Michiganders.

Now, Faygo has launched a new flavor, the Faygo Firework.

The new taste takes its inspiration from the traditional red, white, and blue ice pops - aka, Bomb Pops - that are so popular this time of year. Who doesn't love those, right? Faygo's recipe combines cherry, blue raspberry and lime flavors to offer a fruity, festive concoction that we can envision sipping while, well, watching fireworks.

“For 114 years, Faygo has been an innovator in the pop world and we are very proud to add Firework to our distinctive line of over 50 flavors,” Al Chittaro, president of Faygo Beverages, said in a statement. “Firework will be available for a limited time, and offers a completely new experience for Faygo fans.”

Faygo Firework is available for a limited time at retailers in the Midwest. The beverage is also available online at the Faygo Pop Shop.

Did we mention it's caffeine-free? Bonus!

If you try the new flavor, scan the code on the side of the bottle to instantly be in the running for a chance to win Faygo merchandise.
