Leave it to Taco Bell to turn up the party (er, flavor). Your favorite taco chain has just blessed you with the ultimate way to ring in 2020.
The restaurant that brought you the Baja Blast (which turned 15 this year!) has electrified the flavor of its classic Blue Raspberry Freeze to bring you the newest addition to its iconic drink menu.
The result is the Electric Blue Raspberry Freeze. This frozen beverage features all of the iconic Blue Raspberry flavor you know and love – it's oh so sweet yet oh so tart at the same time – jolted with a bright green sour swirl, which is guaranteed to electrify your taste buds.
And I have good news for fans of the chain's limited edition Sour Strawberry Skittles Freeze, which is due to depart the menu today. The swirl in the Electric Blue Raspberry Freeze is made from the same sour syrup used in the Skittles slushie. So it isn't time for last call—yet.
Taco Bell lists this new slushie for the low-price of $2.49 for a regular size and $2.69 for a large size, and the latter has just 180 calories in a serving. As always, you can scoop up your beverage of choice for $1 during Happier Hour from 2 to 5 p.m. local time. But like its Skittles-themed cousin, it's sadly only available for a limited time.
I know it's a little chilly outside, but who can argue with that low-price/low-calorie combo? Since it's New Year's Eve, today is an early work day for most. So there's no excuse not to pick one up one of these frozen wonders at a discount on the way home from the office and get the party started early by spiking it with vodka. Just don't blame me if the buzz has you bouncing off the walls well before the clock strikes midnight.
