Candy-Flavored Strawberry Slushies

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Taco Bell is Rolling Out a New Skittles Strawberry Freeze

— March 11, 2018 — Lifestyle
For anyone who has ever wished they could enjoy their favorite candy in liquid form, Taco Bell has just debuted a sweet new slushie drink called the Skittles Strawberry Freeze. Though the various Skittles flavors have long divided fans, few dispute the popularity of strawberry.

The new Skittles Strawberry Freeze is a cold slushie drink that is designed to taste exactly like strawberry Skittles. As the brand expands, the new drink lets you truly "taste the rainbow" and "experience what you love about strawberry flavored Skittles candies in every sip."

While the new drink is already available for purchase, fans can save some cash on their order by visiting participating Taco Bell locations during happy hour from 2-5 PM.
