Dairy Queen is expanding its summer menu with a trio of globally inspired Blizzard flavors and a limited-edition patriotic slush float designed to celebrate two major summer events.
The new Blizzard offerings are being released as "historic celebrations [are] taking center stage across America this summer," according to a company announcement . The timing coincides with the nation's 250th anniversary and the excitement of international soccer competitions being held on U.S. soil this summer .
Beginning June 29, participating Dairy Queen locations nationwide will offer the Blizzard Cup Lineup, featuring three distinct flavor profiles that draw inspiration from different global culinary traditions . The Strawberry Mango-flavored Mochi Blizzard combines mango-flavored mochi pieces and strawberry topping blended with the chain's signature soft serve . The Biscoff Cookie Blizzard incorporates crunchy, caramelized Biscoff cookies, while the Mexican-style Hot Chocolate made with Abuelita Blizzard features Abuelita Mexican Hot Chocolate Mix, chocolate chunks, fudge-covered marshmallows, and cocoa fudge .
In addition to the Blizzard lineup, Dairy Queen is introducing a themed frozen dessert honoring America's 250th birthday. The Stars & Stripes Misty Slush Float features layers of Cherry Misty Slush, classic soft serve, and Blue Raspberry Misty Slush, finished with festive star sprinkles . The patriotic float will be available in a small size for $2.50 from June 29 through July 5 at participating locations .
