However, some shoppers have been unable to find the drink for the last few times they went to Kroger and were worried that it might have been discontinued.
"@Kroger is @MountainDew Thrashed Apple being discontinued?" asked one concerned fan on Twitter.
"I haven't seen it at any stores around the Indy Metro area."
Kroger responded: "Hey! We're sorry your local store doesn't have Mountain Dew Thrashed Apple in stock. We see the item is available at stores in your area."

The retailer then asks for the customer to privately message their preferred store address and zip code "so we can share your request to stock this product accurately."
Meanwhile, Aldi fans called out the discount retailer after it discontinued a popular candy treat.
The Raspberry Bar made its way into the store’s Aldi Finds section temporarily, but shoppers adored the sweet so much they’re calling for it to make a comeback.
With just one gram of sugar per serving, each chocolate bar also boasted 7 grams of protein in just 90 calories.
One shopper asked Aldi on Twitter why the raspberry bar had disappeared from stores.
“This was actually an ALDI Finds item!” the company replied in a tweet.
While being an ALDI Finds item means the product is available only on a temporary basis, Aldi offered shoppers a little bit of hope though.
“No plans for a return just yet, but we hope we can see it again in stores one day,” the retailer responded to the initial comment.
Also, chocolate lovers have been longing for the return of a campfire-themed sweet treat from the legendary candy company.
Some customers resorted to social media to beg the Hershey company to bring back the iconic S'mores bar.
The Hershey company introduced the bar back in 2003 and it quickly became a big hit.
The campfire-inspired bar featured a generous layer of marshmallow cream sitting atop a graham cracker crust that is drenched in chocolate.

The manufacturer decided to discontinue the candy bar about a decade after it was released.
Despite many years passing, fans have not forgotten about the beloved S'mores bar.
