Tons of basketball players have their own shoe line. Even more have a clothing line. Some even have their own drink, like LeBron James. But do any of them have their own Slurpee flavor? Nope.
That’s why, thanks to a partnership between James, Sprite and 7-11, the former multi-time NBA MVP will be the first professional athlete to ever have his own Slurpee.
The convenience store announced the partnership today.
"While summer’s heating up, you can be cooling down with a limited edition Sprite 6 Mix by LeBron James Slurpee, courtesy of your local 7-Eleven. That’s right, we’re putting your new favorite drink in chill mode. Starting May 28th, the Sprite 6 Mix by LeBron James Slurpee drops exclusively at your neighborhood 7-Eleven. It combines the great taste of Sprite with natural orange and cherry flavors. This chilly goodness is available only for a limited time, so don’t miss out."
James, who already had a unique drink with Sprite can now snack on his own Slurpee on South Beach after a Miami Heat practice. Sweet living.
7-11 wants everybody to experience the new ‘drink’ however, not only LeBron, so you’ll be able to download a coupon for a free Slurpee by using the 7-11 app.
Just in time for Summer, too.
