Mtn Dew to bring back Pitch Black in 2023

Mtn Dew announced that due to "the overwhelming requests from Dew Nation," Pitch Black will be coming back for a limited time with two new varieties starting this coming January.

The drink will receive a zero-sugar iteration and an energy drink spin, Mtn Dew Energy Pitch Black.

Mtn Dew says fans can expect to see all of these Pitch Black drinks nationwide when they roll out in January. Regular and Zero Sugar are being sold in both bottles and cans, while Energy appears to be available in cans only.

Originally launched for Halloween 2004, Pitch Black's initial limited-time launch was followed by an LTO sequel, Pitch Black II, in 2005.

The flavor also made appearances in 2011 and 2015 before winning Dewcision 2016 where Pitch Black was voted back into permanent status — yet somehow only lasted until 2019.
