The Chick-fil-A 'Frosted Sunrise' drink has been introduced by the [QSR](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloudberry-sunjoy-1) brand as a new offering that brings a balanced flavor to the creamy treat that will likely be coveted by anyone who enjoys [frosty desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frosted-flakes-shake).

The blended beverage is made with a combination of the brand's signature vanilla Icedream along with Simply Orange Juice. These ingredients work together to create a flavor experience that is at once indulgent and surprisingly light, which makes it a great option for those who might find milkshakes too heavy for their preferences.

The Chick-fil-A 'Frosted Sunrise' drink is set to be available at participating locations nationwide through June 2, which makes it a tasty beverage option to enjoy this spring.
