For the entire month of April, Applebee's will be serving a colorful $1 STRAWBERRY DOLLARITA with an edible straw made from a Twizzlers candy. The candy-colored drink is prepared with a combination of tequila, strawberry and margarita mix, and it is served on the rocks to adult customers in a 10-ounce mug.
Applebee's is touting the strawberry-flavored Twizzlers straw as "the coolest and most exciting way to drink a margarita," and it is also being introduced at a time where many consumers are eschewing single-use plastic straws altogether in favor of sustainable—or entirely edible—alternatives.
As Applebee's prides itself on creating fun and memorable experiences, it is inviting people to come together to try its unique new STRAWBERRY DOLLARITA for themselves.
