The weather is starting to warm up but summertime is still technically more than two months away. Fortunately, we don’t have to wait until June 21st for the fine folks at Dairy Queen to start serving their summer Blizzards. Chew Boom reports that DQ has already launched its 2023 Summer Blizzard Treat Menu, including two decadent new flavors.

Dairy Queen is bringing back the Cotton Candy Blizzard, the Choco Dipped Strawberry Blizzard, and the amazing S’mores Blizzard. Their 2023 Summer Blizzard Treat Menu also features the new Oreo Brookie Blizzard Treat and the new Peanut Butter Puppy Chow Blizzard. Don’t worry, it’s the human kind of “puppy chow.”

The 2023 Summer Blizzard Treat Menu will be available at participating Dairy Queen locations for a limited time. On top of that, you can get a Blizzard for just 85 cents from April 10th to April 23rd. According to Delish, you need to use the DQ mobile app to score the deal.

Here are the descriptions of all five summer Blizzard flavors:

  • New Oreo Brookie Blizzard: DQ vanilla soft-serve, Oreo cookie pieces, and brookie (brownie/cookie) pieces.
  • New Peanut Butter Puppy Chow Blizzard: DQ vanilla soft-serve, crispy peanut butter puppy chow pieces, peanut butter topping, and choco chunks.
  • Cotton Candy Blizzard: DQ vanilla soft-serve with cotton candy sprinkles.
  • Choco Dipped Strawberry Blizzard: DQ soft-serve with strawberry topping and choco chunks.
  • S’mores Blizzard: DQ soft-serve with marshmallow-filled DQ chocolate bars and graham crackers.

6 Of The Best Places To Get Milkshakes In Charlotte

Growing up Milkshakes were my favorite! I could rank just about every place in Charlotte by the quality of their milkshake. As I got older I drifted away from them being my go-to beverage and dessert. But with today being National Chocolate Milkshake Day, I figured it was a good time to visit this frosty treat. There are many many places you can get milkshakes in Charlotte. Everyone knows to go to chains whether fast food or ice cream and their milkshake offerings. I will forever be a fan of Cookout milkshakes for one! But there are some more localized spots you may or may not have tried.  And those places are what this list is about!

We will visit six places around Charlotte, many with multiple locations, to discover some new shakes to try out. From local ice cream spots, burger bars with boozy options, or your classic 1950s milkshake. You can’t go wrong with the basic chocolate or vanilla but the fancier flavors can be delicious as well. I have to say making this list made me crave a good shake. I guess my only decision now is which of these places to visit after work. Or maybe I can sneak away and no one would notice? What’s your favorite place to get milkshakes in Charlotte? If I missed any let us know on social media!
