For a limited time, Wienerschnitzel and sister brand [Hamburger Stand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-jacks-dipped-cone) will be adding a new Root Beer Dipped Cone to its menus. This tasty treat is reminiscent of a Root Beer Float, taking creamy Tastee Freez Soft Serve, dipping it in a beer-flavored coating, and then serving it in a crunchy cone. For a more traditional root beer float experience, fans can order Mug Root Beer mixed with the brand's creamy Tastee Freez Soft Serve. The new Root Beer Dipped Cone is available now at participating locations.
