Welcome to the Most Punk Rock Slurpee Experience of the Year — Green Day & 7-Eleven Just Flipped the Script on Pop-Ups



Editor in Chief Cece Woods considers herself the “accidental activist”.…
Los Angeles is no stranger to pop culture spectacles — but this weekend, Green Day and 7-Eleven just dropped a collab so unexpected, it practically moshed its way into Hollywood. Get ready for the Kerplunk Kandy Speakeasy, a two-day punk-meets-Slurpee fever dream celebrating the debut of a brand new brain-freezing concoction: the Kerplunk Kandy Grape Slurpee — a vivid green sugar bomb inspired by the band’s 1992 cult album Kerplunk!
🍇 The Slurpee Heard ’Round the Pit
Part cotton candy, part grape, 100% chaos — this limited-edition Slurpee isn’t just a drink, it’s a vibe. Inspired by the cotton candy grapes Green Day reportedly keeps backstage, this green slushie is now available for a limited time at select 7-Eleven, Speedway, and Stripes stores nationwide.
And yes, it tastes as wild as it sounds — equal parts nostalgia, neon sugar rush, and garage-band rebellion.


🎉 The Kerplunk Kandy Speakeasy Pop-Up: Because Why Not?
Running Saturday, May 3 and Sunday, May 4 from 12 PM – 6 PM at 6501 Hollywood Blvd, this is not your average brand activation. The Kerplunk Kandy Speakeasy is a decked-out, punkified tribute to the band that gave us eyeliner angst and power chords for days.
Here’s what you get inside:
🎯 Free samples of the new Kerplunk Slurpee
🧢 Free merch (if you’re among the first 100 through the door) — think custom T-shirts, hats, and tote bags
🖌️ Live apparel personalization stations so you can walk out dripped in DIY
💀 Exclusive Green Day x 7-Eleven merchandise you won’t find anywhere else
Pro Tip: You must bring a Slurpee or receipt from a participating store to get in. Punk, but with rules.

☕ Caffeine Meets Chaos: Punk Bunny Coffee Drops Too
Green Day didn’t stop at sugar — they also came for your caffeine habit. Their own brand, Punk Bunny Coffee, is launching three new brews exclusively at 7-Eleven:
🎸 Mike Dirnt’s Turn Up the Bass Medium Roast
🍬 Punk Bunny Cold Brew Caramel Latte
🍫 Chocolate Almond Specialty Latte
Because what pairs better with slushie-induced brain freeze than a coffee-fueled heart palpitation?
📍 Pop-Up Details Recap:
When: Saturday, May 3 & Sunday, May 4
Time: 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Where: 6501 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA
How: Bring your Kerplunk Kandy Slurpee cup or receipt from 7-Eleven
Whether you’re a diehard Green Day fan, a Slurpee aficionado, or just someone who loves chaos in beverage form, this is the must-hit pop-up of the weekend. It’s weird, it’s wild, it’s wonderfully unnecessary — just the way Green Day would want it.
