History[]

When Midnight Grape was promoted in the Super Bowl 50, the other new Kickstart flavors also received an advertising promotion in various media due to PuppyMonkeyBaby.

In 2019, a design change for Watermelon, Blood Orange, and Ultra Original Dew alongside the other Kickstart flavors were leaked, but those three flavors were discontinued shortly thereafter. As a result, the redesigns never made it to store shelves.

International release[]

Finland[]

Kickstart Recharge (Energizing Blood Orange) was released in 2018 available in Finland under a new name: "Jumpstart (Energizing Blood Orange)." As of 2023, it is still currently available.

In contrast to the North American release, this version of the drink contains the artificial sweeteners Sucralose and Neohesperidin DC in addition to Sugar. So far, this is the only Mountain Dew branded drink to contain NHDC as a sweetener.
