CINCINNATI - Do you like orange juice? Do you like Mountain Dew? How about together?

Taco Bell is now offering a new morning concoction to start your day. The drink consists of Mountain Dew and orange juice and they are calling it "Mountain Dew A.M."

So far, the fast food chain is just testing out the new drink at certain locations in Fresno and Southern California. But Taco Bell told Fox News they are happy with the product so far.

"We’re pleased with the initial reaction from our customers, and if it does well, we’ll roll it out to all our restaurants that serve breakfast," Rob Poetsch, the company's spokesman, said in the Fox News story.

Mountain Dew A.M. will join the new breakfast menu being offered by Taco Bell .  Mountain Dew A.M. will only be offered through 11 a.m., so you can't drink this sugar and caffeine-packed beverage all day.

And if you are interested in trying it, consider cutting down on your sugar intake for the rest of the day: OJ packs around 20 grams of sugar per cup, and the Dew holds a whopping 31 grams.
