It’s no secret that Taco Bell consistently gives us amazing fast food. But do you know what is a secret? Their latest and greatest Freeze creation, of course!
The new Tie-Dye Freeze mixes together some of Taco Bell’s fruity Freeze flavors for a beautiful cupful of colors.
What’s in the Tie-Dye Freeze?
This item is part of Taco Bell’s secret menu, so when you pull up to the drive-thru, you won’t see the drink on the menu. But don’t fear. The steps are simple.
First, you’ll order a Taco Bell Freeze in either size, a regular or a large. Then, ask for all three Freeze flavors layered together in one cup. That’s Strawberry, Pineapple Whip and signature Mountain Dew Baja Blast all mixed up into one frozen whirlwind of flavors. The rainbow array is a delight to the eye, and the perfect complement to your favorite T-Bell meal.
Taco Bell released this secret menu item to the public, so we know it’s going to be good. Nothing like a pretty, frozen treat to beat the summer heat!
How Long Will It Be Available?
This Tie-Dye Freeze is limited edition in the sense that it’s only available as long as all the components are on the menu. I wouldn’t worry too much, though, because the hot weather is just starting, and the Freeze line of drinks is likely to be a big hit. You can grab a regular size for just $2.49. That’s a great deal if I ever saw one!
If you need me, I’ll be in the drive-thru ordering a drinkable rainbow.
