History[]
On October 11th, 2022, on the Dew Drinker Discord, it was first leaked of two new pink and purple flavors: Baja Guava and Baja Passionfruit Punch would re-release alongside Baja Blast, and Baja Blast Zero Sugar in part for an unnamed Summer promotion. The name for this flavor was a placeholder name due to the leaked renders of the flavor being too low resolution for the flavor name to be discernable at the time.
On December 28th, 2022, in a r/MountainDew Reddit post, a user named u/Fleezus7 showed high-quality photographs of Cobra Cane, Baja Passionfruit Punch, Baja Guava, Summer Freeze with its Zero Sugar variant, a canceled DEWcision 2023 promotion and a prototype Snap'd. Based on the information, the name/flavor is Baja Guava, although its actual name was pending.
In January 2023, a photograph was leaked showing pre-release bottles of both flavors, with Baja Guava given the official name of Baja Caribbean Splash.
It was officially released in stores in the United States on June 19th, 2023 for a limited time alongside Baja Passionfruit Punch and was sold in 12-packs and and 20 ounce bottles until September 9th, 2023 when the Summer of Baja Blast promotion ends.
