The Cap’n Crunch Berries Slurpee has been announced as the latest creation from the convenience store brand that will provide customers with an unlikely way to quench their thirst this summer.
The slushie features a flavor that is inspired by the same cereal it shares a name with, which will come as welcome news to those who are fans of the breakfast food. The drink isn't infused with bits of the cereal, but is rather formulated to be just like the other flavor options in terms of consistency with a vibrant turquoise color.
The Cap’n Crunch Berries Slurpee is a limited-edition flavor that will only be around for a short amount of time and builds on the influx of cereal-themed products that have been launched in recent months.
