Wendy's New Peppermint Frosty Is Just In Time For The Holidays
By AUTUMN SWIERS
Wendy's has released quite a few Frosty flavor variations around the world, but not in its home base of the U.S. — until 2022, that is. Following the release of the strawberry Frosty in the summer, Wendy's is now gearing up to release its first holiday-themed Frosty in the States: the Peppermint Frosty, set to debut on November 15.
Carl Loredo, Wendy's chief marketing officer, stated that "Folks enjoyed the strawberry Frosty enough that we knew it was important to get after another flavor and one that would tie well with the holidays." The strawberry Frosty replaced the vanilla Frosty on the menu during its limited-time run, and the Peppermint Frosty will do the same.
John Li, vice president of culinary innovation for Wendy's, describes the flavor as a "classic thick and creamy Frosty" that features "bursts of fresh peppermint." Wendy's has yet to state exactly how long the Peppermint Frosty will be around, so lovers of mint ice cream should head to their local store ASAP once this treat hits the menu.
