Sonic Shakes Prices: Classic and Master
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Hand-Mixed Classic Shakes | $4.59 to $5.29 (reported) / $4.87+ delivered |

Sources: reported shake ranges from our own Sonic drinks menu prices page, verified live October 17, 2026; delivery figures from our own Sonic menu prices page, verified live the same day. Sonic’s shakes are hand-mixed, which is why they sit above the slushes and soft drinks on price. Flavors vary by location and season, so check the menu board or the app for what your store is pouring.
Sonic Blasts Prices
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Sonic Blasts | $5.60+ delivered |
| Banana Pudding Blast (limited time) | $5.84+ delivered |
Source: our Sonic menu prices page, delivery figures from exact-store DoorDash listings. A Blast is soft serve blended with candy or cookie mix-ins, so it eats more like a dessert than a drink. The Banana Pudding Blast was spotted as a limited-time item, so it will not be on every board. If your store does not list it, the regular Blasts are the standing option.
Sonic Sundaes, Floats and Soft Serve Prices
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Vanilla Soft Serve Cup (Fun.99 menu) | $1.99 |
| Small Root Beer Float (Fun.99 menu) | $1.99 |
| Vanilla sundae (Big Deal Meal component) | $3.49 |
Sources: Fun.99 items from our Sonic value menu page; sundae price from the Big Deal Meal component list on our Sonic menu prices page. The $1.99 Soft Serve Cup and Root Beer Float are the cheapest frozen treats on the menu, and the sundae is the one that makes the $7 Big Deal Meal work: cheeseburger, drink, tots and sundae for seven bucks.
Sonic Shakes vs Blasts vs Sundaes: Which Should You Order?
Pick by mood. A Classic Shake is the everyday choice: thick, hand-mixed, $4.59 to $5.29, and the easiest to drink through a straw on the drive home. A Master Shake at $5.09 to $5.79 is the richer pour for people who want something heavier. A Blast at $5.60 and up is the dessert play: blended soft serve with mix-ins, eaten with a spoon, and the best pick if you are splitting something with a friend. A sundae at $3.49 is the light option, and the $1.99 Soft Serve Cup is the budget option that still tastes like the real thing.
Our honest ranking for value: the $1.99 Soft Serve Cup first, the sundae inside the $7 Big Deal Meal second, and the Classic Shake third. Blasts are the treat, not the value play.
Sonic Shakes and Happy Hour: What Is Not Included
Here is the mistake most people make: shakes are not part of the 2 to 4 PM Happy Hour. Happy Hour covers drinks and slushes, not shakes. Some locations run a late-night Happy Hour from about 8 PM to close that can include shakes, but participation varies, so check with your store. The app has also run half-price shakes after 7 PM in the past, but that offer was last confirmed in June 2026 and was not re-verified in October 2026, so do not plan around it. Check the app offers tab before ordering.
How to Order Sonic Shakes and Ice Cream for Less
Three moves. First, if you are already eating a meal, get the sundae through the $7 Big Deal Meal instead of paying $3.49 on its own. Second, if you just want something frozen, the $1.99 Soft Serve Cup or Root Beer Float off the Fun.99 menu beats any shake on price. Third, order shakes for pickup rather than delivery: the delivery price for a Classic Shake starts at $4.87, above the reported $4.59 to $5.29 range, and a shake that sits in a delivery bag melts while the driver finishes the route.
