Snack-Sized Milkshakes

Del Taco Now Offers Mini Shakes as Part of Its Buck and Under Menu

To give consumers a tasty way to cool down this summer, Del Taco recently introduced a frosty new beverage lineup known as Mini Shakes. Sold as part of the chain's 'Buck and Under' value menu, the shakes are a refreshing and affordable way to indulge.

Del Taco's new Mini Shakes are nine-ounce milkshakes sold for just a dollar each at participating restaurants. Just like the chain's regular shakes, the pint-sized drinks come in classic flavors such as Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry. The only real difference between the snack-sized shakes and their full-sized counterparts is the lack of whipped cream on the miniature version.

Del Taco's new Mini Shakes demonstrate the growing demand for snack-sized food and drinks that give consumers an easy way to indulge in something decadent without consuming a full meal.
