The Dairy Queen Sour Patch Kids Blizzard has been unveiled by the brand as its Blizzard of the Month for July 2019 that is sure to satisfy avid fans of the sweet and sour candy.
The frozen dessert is made with a base of Sour Patch Kids Raspberry soft serve ice cream that has then been blended with Sour Patch Kids Bitz. This gives the treat a sweet, creamy and sour profile, which is quite different from the traditional offerings from the brand.
The limited-edition Dairy Queen Sour Patch Kids Blizzard is only available for a short period of time alongside six other flavors in the 2019 Summer Blizzard Menu, which includes Summer Berry Cheesecake, S'Mores, Oreo Cookie Jar, Brownie Dough, Caramel Cannonball and Cotton Candy.
