Seasonal Hot Cocoa-Inspired Shakes

The Culver's Frozen Cocoa Shake Celebrates the Festive Season

The Culver's Frozen Cocoa Shake is making its way to participating locations for the 2023 holiday season to provide diners with a cold weather-inspired treat to try out. The shake starts off with the brand's fresh frozen vanilla custard that's mixed with hot cocoa mix as well as farm-fresh milk. The ingredients are blended together to achieve a frozen take on hot cocoa that will satisfy consumers seeking an alternative way to enjoy the flavors of the season.

The Culver's Frozen Cocoa Shake is being launched alongside the returning Frozen Cocoa Concrete Mixer, which is so thick and creamy that the brand recommends enjoying it with a spoon. The frozen treats are only around for a limited time through February 4, 2024 or while supplies last.
