A redheaded fast-food chain is getting in on the cold brew game — in Frosty fashion, of course.
On July 24, Wendy’s announced it was spilling the coffee beans, so to speak, by introducing a new cold brew coffee line: the Frosty Cream Cold Brew. To celebrate the arrival of the chilled concoction, the 53-year-old chain is offering a delicious deal so that folks can try it with the change in their pocket.
Wendy’s new Frosty Cream Cold Brew features cold brew coffee that the chain says has been steeped for 12 hours. The caffeinated drink is then mixed with the chain’s signature Frosty creamer and a choice of vanilla, chocolate or a new caramel syrup, before being “swirled to perfection” over ice.
“While the other guys serve bitter iced coffee, Wendy’s is the only hamburger chain to serve up cold brew nationally — talk about a dream come brew,” a Wendy’s spokesperson said in an emailed release. The shade of it all!
“Wendy’s new Frosty Cream Cold Brew packs cold brew flavor with the one-of-a-kind Frosty creamer our fans know and love,” said John Li, the Wendy’s Company’s global vice president of culinary innovation, in a press release. “[...] we slow steep coffee beans in cold water for 12 hours to create the smoothest, never bitter, refreshing brew. It’s exactly what summer coffee drinkers have been craving!”
Wendy’s also announced a pair of deals surrounding its new cool-and-caffeinated creation.
First, from July 24 until Aug. 6, customers can grab any small hot or cold brew — including the new Frosty Cream Cold Brew — for only 99 cents via the burger chain’s in-app offer, with no additional purchase necessary. Wendy’s offers refreshes daily, so you could get your brew every day while the deal lasts.
Additionally, from July 27 to Aug. 2, Uber Eats users can enjoy a free medium Frosty Cream Cold Brew with any order of $15 or more. This deal applies to all customers and is exclusively available via Uber Eats, as part of its “Summer Eatscation,” which features other deals with 7-Eleven and Starbucks, among others.
The Frosty Cream Cold Brew is the latest Frosty treat to join the menu this summer, following the much-lauded return of the Strawberry Frosty for its much-lauded sophomore season.
Wendy’s Frosty Cream Cold Brew line is now available all day long at Wendy’s restaurants nationwide. So, if you want a morning boost or a even late-night one, the Vanilla, Chocolate or Caramel Frosty Cream Cold Brews are waiting at your nearest Wendy’s restaurant, website or app.
