BurgerFi's Dunkaroos Shake is a new specialty milkshake on its menu that was created with General Mills to revive the flavors of an iconic 90s snack. The nostalgic shake, available for a limited time, is made with Dunkaroos cookies and BurgerFi's vanilla custards, which are more richly textured than ice cream. The blended shake is accented with colorful sprinkles and a dusting of cookies, and when it comes to enjoying the Dunkaroos Shake, BurgerFi recommends dunking the cookies on top into the shake.
With this shake, BurgerFi and General Mills aimed to "recreate that fun, magical experience that our guests felt when they opened their lunchbox and saw the best childhood snack." This new menu item is the first time that Dunkaroos has been offered in shake form.
