The Taco Bell Freeze AIRHEAD Flavor is Hidden For Eaters to Guess

— September 8, 2016 — Lifestyle
Taco Bell has unveiled a new frozen blended drink inspired by the AIRHEAD flavor known as 'White Mystery' that's taste origin is unknown. The drink, called a Freeze, features the same taste as the candy and the ambiguous nature encourages eaters to try and guess what the flavor is.

The 'White Mystery' AIRHEADS are rumored to be a repacking of one of the other varieties by the brand, but without the packaging that identifies the candy. The Freeze drink continues the enigma by adding the mystery flavor to a blended iced drink called the White Mystery AIRHEAD Freeze that has the same white coloring. Eaters are encouraged to try and guess what the taste is while experiencing the candy in a fun, new format that is suited to the summer and fall seasons.
