Taco Bell has shared its idea for a refreshing summer introduction to boozy beverages. Documents submitted by Taco Bell to the city officials outline the request to begin selling '[Twisted Freezes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twisted-alchemy-whole-foods-market),' [Corona](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corona-tropical) and another local brewery's beer. While Corona will make the perfect beer addition to the Taco Bell menu paired with a pile of nachos, the 'Twisted Freezes' will be a sweet treat great for dessert. These slushy beverages will be a fruity mix of blended ice with vodka, tequila or rum. The location has already applied for its license and hopes these alcohol fast food drinks will make an appearance in time to be a favored summer refresher. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 45% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Fast Food Alcoholic Beverages:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating unique and flavorful alcoholic beverages to cater to the fast food industry. - **Blended Alcoholic Slushies:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing innovative ways to combine blended ice with various spirits to create refreshing and indulgent frozen cocktails. - **Alcohol Infused Fast Food Menus:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing alcoholic beverages as part of fast food menus to enhance customer experience and attract a wider range of clientele. ### Where This Applies - **Fast Food:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating alcoholic beverages into fast food menus to differentiate from competitors and increase sales. - **Beverage:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing new and unique alcoholic drinks for the beverage industry, especially targeting the fast food segment. - **Hospitality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Providing alcoholic fast food beverages to enhance the overall dining experience in the hospitality industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Swirled Mixed Berry Slushies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/island-berry-freeze.md) - [Fruit-Infused Green Teas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/agua-refrescas.md) - [Swirled Blue Raspberry Slushies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-strawberry-freeze-beverages.md) - [Frozen QSR Mango Refreshments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taco-bell-mango.md) - [Fruit-Flavored Slush Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/double-berry-freeze.md) - [Frozen Black Cherry Slushies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/midnight-cherry-freeze.md) - [Frozen QSR-Backed Chillers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/murrays-che.md) - [Swirled Frozen QSR Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cherry-bliss-freeze.md) - [Tex-Mex Cafe Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/live-ms-cafe.md)
