The drinks are debuting alongside the Eagle Cup; a limited-edition collectible cup that will offer a complimentary medium beverage with purchase. The food menu puts the focus on the Rocket Pop Donut, Stars & Stripes Donut and the Stars & Stripes Munchkins, while the brand will also be offering a range of summer-ready merch styles.
