June 2024 · 3 minute read

DAIRY Queen has launched a new Blizzard – but it won't be around forever.

The sweet treat is a part of the fast food chain's so-called royal offerings, which Dairy Queen describes as being iconic for their "filled center.

The new Blizzard flavor is known as the royal Reese's fluffernutter Blizzard.

It includes marshmallows, chocolate, and peanut butter topping.

"At the center of the Royal REESE'S Fluffernutter Blizzard® Treat — surrounded by our world-famous soft serve mixed with REESE'S Peanut Butter Cups and peanut butter topping — you’ll find sweet, creamy marshmallow," Dairy Queen said in a description of the product.

While prices will vary by location, the cost ranges from $4.46 to $6.50, according to a local store viewed by The U.S. Sun.
