A sure sign that warmer days are on the way, [Jack in the](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adventurefuls-caramel-brownie-shake) Box has just debuted its cool and creamy new Pineapple Express Shake.

Just as the name suggests, Jack in the Box's new Pineapple Express Shake combines the richness of a milkshake with the tropical flavors of pineapple. More specifically, this shake is made up of a blend of vanilla soft-serve ice cream and pineapple flavoring. The whole thing is then topped off with a generous portion of whipped topping and a sweet maraschino cherry.

While it's unclear if the new Pineapple Express Shake is a limited-time offering or not, the tropical flavor is most likely a seasonal offering so try it while you can.
