Chromatic Summertime Slushies

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Dairy Queen Poolside Punch Twisty Misty Slush is Vibrant

— April 1, 2022 — Lifestyle
The Dairy Queen Poolside Punch Twisty Misty Slush has been announced by the brand ahead of the warm weather months as its upcoming refreshment that will draw in consumers seeking out a way to beat the heat. The slushie is achieved with swirled layers of blue raspberry and pink punch flavors, which will shift and blend together to create an almost kaleidoscopic appearance. The flavor is also reported to taste like "summer in a cup," according to the brand.

The Dairy Queen Poolside Punch Twisty Misty Slush is a social media-friendly refreshment that encourages consumers to post a picture of themselves enjoying one online thanks to the vibrant, eye-catching colors. The drink also comes as a great option for Diary Queen patrons to choose when seeking out a cold refreshment that isn't ice cream.
