Taco Bell recently expanded its cold drink line-up with the addition of the new Crush Orange Vanilla Float Freeze. Following the success of the chain's Dr. Pepper Vanilla Float Freeze, the new drink puts a tasty twist on a popular brand of soda.
The new Crush Orange Vanilla Float Freeze is a blended drink made from Crush orange soda. The drink is meant to mimic the flavors of a creamsicle by combining hints of orange and vanilla. However, instead of enjoying the tasty flavor combination in the form of a popsicle, consumers can now sip it through a straw and for a refreshing way to beat the heat.
The new Freeze flavor is an example of the kinds of collaborative efforts between beverage brands and fast food chains such as Taco Bell.
