“America’s time capsule” has been officially sealed. What’s inside?
All 50 states have donated items to the “America’s Time Capsule,” which will be buried in Philadelphia on July 4 and opened 250 years later.
Dairy Queen is adding more treats to its menu with new Blizzard flavors and patriotic slushies.
According to a June 23 news release, Blizzard’s three new products will be released as “historic celebrations take center stage across America this summer,” including the 250th anniversary of the nation’s founding and the excitement of international soccer on home soil.
The full lineup of Blizzard Treat Cups is as follows:
- Strawberry Mango Mochi Blizzard: Topped with mango flavored mochi pieces and strawberries, blended with soft serve ice cream.
- Biscoff Cookie Blizzard: Made with crunchy caramelized Biscoff cookies blended with soft serve ice cream.
- Mexican-Style Hot Chocolate with Abuelita Blizzard: Made with Abuelita Mexican Hot Chocolate mix, chocolate chunks, fudge-covered marshmallows, and cocoa fudge blended with soft serve ice cream.
Dairy Queen also adds patriotic slashes
DQ will also launch new themed frozen desserts to commemorate the 250th anniversary celebrations.
Dubbed the Stars & Stripes Misty Slush Float, this patriotic float includes layers of cherry misty slush, world-famous soft serve ice cream, and blue raspberry misty slush with festive star sprinkles.
Dairy Queen says the $2.50 float will be available at participating stores beginning Monday, June 29, and will be available in smaller sizes.
