Welcome To Taste of States a place where we celebrate the weird and wonderful food of the United States of America. This can be everything from the snacks that are available for a limited time to the foods that are classic traditions at events such as Christmas and Thanksgiving! Each week we will explore the facts and the history surrounding a different food.

WENDY’S PEPPERMINT FROSTY

Today we are heading back to 2002 to take a look at a drink that was released to celebrate the holiday season and been returned to the shop last year.

In 2022, the fast food restaurant Wendy’s released the drink Peppermint Frosty. It was released into the shops on the 15th November to create a festive vibe for a limited time. It was also the first time that a holiday themed drink was added to the menu.

The Frosty is a frozen dairy dessert drink that has been described as a mix between a milkshake and a soft serve ice cream.

The Peppermint Frosty mas to give the minty flavour to the much loved drink. It cost around $2.19 and was available at most Wendy locations.

There are reviews online that state it is not minty enough and tastes predominantly of vanilla. Whilst others praise it’s creaminess and enjoy the subtle peppermint flavour.

TASTE OF STATES WILL RETURN IN 2026
