If you're planning to head to SXSW, you might be pleased to know that you can get The Simpsons-themed beverages from a mobile Kwik-E-Mart.

The food truck, designed to be a moving replica of Springfield's premiere convenience store, will serve Squishees, the show's version of slushie ice drinks. The flavours confirmed are 'Not So Very Cherry' and 'Give ‘Em the Razz'.

Though not confirmed, the Austin Eater has discovered that the location of the truck will be at 604 Driskill Street. The appearance of the Squishee-serving vehicle marks the 25th anniversary of the Kwik-E-Mart's appearance on The Simpsons; Austin, Texas is the first stop on a promotional tour of the USA.

The music lineup at SXSW is set to feature Best Coast, Will Butler, Clean Bandit, Gengahr, Kate Boy, Marina & The Diamonds, Natalie Prass, San Cisco, Seinabo Sey, Tove Styrke, Torres, Matthew E White and many more. For more information on the lineup, head here.
