History[]
- Main article: Dub the Dew
In early August of 2012, an online naming contest campaign named "Dub the Dew" was announced. It launched, which allowed fans to submit and vote for potential good names for this Villa Italian Kitchen restaurant-exclusive Dew flavor to use. Not long after, online communities (most notably 4Chan) began attacking/vandalizing the website due to lacking security, voting for vulgar and offensive names until they filled the top 10 list. After that, the website was then taken down and was not re-launched ever since.
In March 2013, it became available exclusively in Villa Italian Kitchen restaurants as a permanent flavor, named "Apple Mountain Dew" and consisting of regular Mountain Dew with a shot of Green Apple syrup.
On July 9th, 2014, this flavor was renamed from "Apple Mountain Dew" to a new name, "Electric Apple." This Green Apple Dew flavor joined by a companion flavor, Extreme Pomegranate. Electric Apple is still available, while Extreme Pomegranate was discontinued in 2015.
Trivia[]
- This flavor is the second Green Apple flavor of Mountain Dew. The first one was Diet Crave, the third being partly Green Label, the fourth being Thrashed Apple, and the fifth being partly Apple Cinnamon.
- Electric Apple is one of the first much earlier Franchise Exclusive flavors before the Franchise Exclusive flavors became a prominent staple of Mountain Dew's lineup in recent times.
