Taco Bell’s Mountain Dew Baja Blast gelato is finally here: How to get it

Taco Bell’s Mountain Dew Baja Blast Gelato has been in the works for a while, and now the dessert is finally here, but it’s super limited. 

The Baja Blast frozen dessert has been a highly anticipated item, with rumors of its speculated release date circulating the internet whilst Taco Bell celebrated the blue drink’s 20th birthday. 

The dessert was first released in August 2023, with videos circulating TikTok of customers rushing to stores to grab one. Unfortunately, many were left disappointed as Taco Bell only trialed the new dessert in one Taco Bell location, and the Baja Blast Gelato sold out in only three days, proving to be a monumental success. 

After an announcement by Taco Bell earlier in 2024 during the Live Mas Live Event, it was confirmed that the Mountain Dew Baja Blast would be making it to menus this year. 

Popular food blogger Snackolator posted a review of the gelato on September 3, signifying that the release had made it nationwide:

“I was able to try this and I thought it was great – it had the Baja Blast taste and it was just pure fun and a perfect summer release.”

According to Snackolator, this gelato will only be sold for two weeks, or until supplies run out, whichever happens first.

He claims that each store in the country will only get 288 tubs of the stuff each, and that it will retail for $2.99, only through the app.

Basically, it’s super exclusive and available now, so what are you waiting for? To celebrate the 20th birthday of Baja Blast, Taco Bell also tested a more unusual creation – Baja Blast Pie.
