What Are the Best Cookout Drinks to Order?

[james charles]

Hey folks! I’ve always loved Cookout for their massive menu, but let’s talk about something underrated—the Cookout drinks! While most people rush for the food and shakes, their drink selection deserves a shoutout too.

You’ve got your usual sodas, but they also offer some cool Southern classics. Ever tried their Cheerwine? It’s a cherry soda that’s big in the South and pairs perfectly with their burgers. Their sweet tea is another must-have—iced, strong, and sugary, just like it should be. And if you’re skipping caffeine, their lemonade is super refreshing and made just right.

And of course, no drink talk at Cookout is complete without mentioning the milkshakes. With over 40 flavors, they blur the line between drink and dessert, but technically still count, right?

So what’s your go-to when it comes to Cookout drinks? Are you a classic soda fan, or do you lean into the local favorites like Cheerwine or that bold sweet tea? Share your favorite combos or any interesting drink hacks you’ve come across. Let’s help each other upgrade our next Cookout visit!
