PJ's Coffee is adding three handcrafted sodas and a limited-time Firecracker Lemonade to its summer menu. The New Orleans chain is rolling out the drinks from July 1 through Aug. 3. The Firecracker Lemonade, available June 29 through July 5, mixes blue raspberry lemonade with red glitter and sells for $2.50 in a 16-ounce cup.
The three craft sodas feature bold flavors with sparkling finishes. The company described them as a refreshing alternative for hot days.

The new drinks join existing summer items like the Bayou Breeze Refresher, Caramel Pecan Red Bull, and Southern Wedding Cake beverages. All are available at PJ’s locations nationwide and through the mobile app.
