Upon first glance, December might not actually seem like ice cream season. But that is simply the mindset of someone without whimsy, someone who is not willing to work hard for what they want, and someone who is unwilling to wear gloves while taking down a Dairy Queen Blizzard. If you're on my side of the argument, you'll be pleased to know that Dairy Queen is bringing back the fan-fave Peppermint Hot Cocoa Blizzard for the holidays.
The Peppermint Hot Cocoa Blizzard takes all the delicious flavors of the iconic cozy drink and blends them into an ice cream treat. It's made with candy cane pieces, choco chunks and cocoa fudge mixed with signature DQ soft serve. This little beauty will be the Blizzard of the Month for December and you won't want to miss it.
In case you're looking to try a bunch of seasonal treats, you can also pick up a Frozen Hot Chocolate, a similar sippable treat that will definitely give you a chill, but is totally worth it. You can also still get your hands on the Snickerdoodle Cookie Dough Blizzard for the rest of the holiday season. There is a lot of seasonal magic hiding out at your local DQ!!
All of these treats are available right now at participating DQ locations nationwide. Pro tip: Grab one (or more!) before or after driving to see some Christmas lights and make sure to blast your favorite holiday album for maximum cheer. Trust me on this one!!
