The Utah-based company, Swig, is coming soon with its first Louisiana store inside of The Forum at 4533 Johnston Street in Lafayette, LA.
Founded in 2010, the company started as a small drive-thru soda shop that has expanded to over 80 locations across several states.

Known for customizable soda drinks, called “Dirty Sodas”, Swig uses a soda base like Coke, Dr. Pepper, or Sprite combined with a mix of different syrups, creams, and fruit purees to concoct different specialty drinks for their customers. The company has become a popular destination for its unique drinks as well as treats like semi-frozen cookies, salted pretzel bites, and popsicles.

The menu at Swig includes staples like the Dirty Dr Pepper, which mixes in coconut, and the Riptide, which combines sprite, cranberry, raspberry purée, and fresh lime. Other combinations include the Naughty & Nice with Dr. Pepper, English toffee, half & half, and the Berry Swigmas, which mixes water, cranberry, sugar-free vanilla, and fresh orange. There are a ton of different drink combinations. They even offer energy drink combinations, called Revivers, along with several other products mentioned previously.
The new Swig store, to be located next to F45 Fitness inside of The Forum, will feature a walk-in component as well as a drive-thru for those looking to get in and out quickly.

Projects like this, once started, will typically take about 3-5 months to complete and open. So if construction starts this month, we could expect to visit Swig around the beginning of the new year. There’s also a chance it could open sooner, but it’s safe to say they will open in early 2025.
