Wendy's iconic Frosty is about to get an upgrade in the form of the new Frosty-ccino.
Earlier this week, Wendy's announced that it was committing to breakfast with the debut of an extensive new breakfast menu. But while the new Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit and Breakfast Baconator certainly had people talking, it was the announcement of the new Frosty-ccino that created the most buzz.
Just as the name suggests, the new Frosty-ccino takes combines Wendy's signature Frosty creme in chocolate or vanilla, with a serving of cold brew coffee. The result is a drink that has the thick and creamy texture of a Frosty milkshake, but the jolt of caffeine that you expect from cold brew. As Wendy’s CEO Todd Penegor explains, "we put Wendy’s fan favorites on our breakfast menu to set us apart from the competition."
