Burning DK (Also called Burning DK Sports Drink) is a sports drink that appears as sponsor in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The drink appears to be endorsed by Donkey Kong, or the company that produces it run by him. The company's logo features an edited version of his 2D artwork to show him holding the drink in orange, red and white on a yellow background with orange flames and bubbles. The name itself is written in a black serif font, though appears red on the cans. It is advertised by means of posters, trackside banners, cans, signs and is also referenced on a map.

Burning DK is advertised using trackside banners in Mario Circuit, and with posters and trackside banners in Toad Harbor. Trackside banners for it also appear in Mount Wario and DS Cheep Cheep Beach, while a sign and delivery trucks appear for it in N64 Toad's Turnpike. Signs and trackside banners for it appear in DS Wario Stadium, and has vending machines and cans of drink in Super Bell Subway, as well as being listed under Exit A of the Local Information map as "Burning DK Sports Drink", and appearing in square B4. A monochrome version of the trackside banner also appears on the game's loading screen.

The Burning DK trackside banners seen in Mario Circuit can also be seen in the Super Smash Bros. for Wii U stage Mario Circuit, in the same positions as the Mario Kart 8 course.
