About the Sonic menu
Sonic is still the chain where a carhop can bring food to your car window, though most orders now come through the drive-thru lane or the app. The food side is classic American drive-in fare: burgers, coneys, corn dogs, tots and onion rings. The drink side is what keeps people coming back, with limeades, slushes, dirty sodas and add-in flavors that let you build a cup that is yours alone.
Prices on this page come from Sonic's own online-ordering menu, checked on October 27, 2026, at six drive-ins in Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia, Tennessee, Arizona and Missouri. Where those stores disagreed, you will see a range. Calories come from Sonic's September 2026 nutrition guide. Holiday drinks were already showing up at some stores when we checked, so expect the seasonal list to change through winter.

Sonic calories and protein
Drinks and frozen treats are where calories add up fast at Sonic, since a large shake can pass 1,000 calories and a medium Blast can top 900. On the food side, the 3-piece crispy tenders (260) or a corn dog (230) are light picks. Diet limeades and unsweet tea let you keep the drink near zero.
Sonic allergen notes
Sonic links its allergen and ingredient details from sonicdrivein.com/nutrition-allergen and prints a summary in its nutrition guide. The guide notes that peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, wheat, soy, fish, shellfish and sesame are used in its kitchens. Shared equipment means cross-contact can happen, so tell the crew about any allergy before ordering.

- Try a mini drink first if you are testing a new slush or dirty soda flavor; it costs a fraction of a large.
- Build your own drink by adding a flavor or two to a limeade or soda instead of picking a preset.
- Compare a Big Deal Meal to a regular cheeseburger combo before ordering, since the deal includes dessert.
- Ask for unsweet tea or a diet limeade if you want to keep the drink close to zero calories.
- Check the Limited Time section of the menu in the app, because seasonal drinks rotate through the year.
