The A&W Lemonade Shake is the newest addition to the QSR brand's menu that's formulated with creamy desserts and a summertime favorite in mind for a hybrid version of the two. The shake starts off with vanilla soft serve that's blended with lemonade to give it a creamy yet slightly tart flavor profile. The shake is finished with a serving of whipped cream along with a cherry to give it the picture perfect appearance patrons will enjoy.
The A&W Lemonade Shake is a seasonal menu item being added to the brand's existing permanent lineup of milkshakes, which includes Strawberry, Vanilla and Chocolate. The shakes are part of a larger movement towards flavor experimentation and mashups within the QSR industry.
