Festive Eggnog Shakes

Krystal's Handspun Seasonal Shake is a Sweet Yuletide Treat

— November 26, 2019 — Lifestyle
The Krystal Company is introducing a seasonal shake for a limited time that offers a refreshing twist on a classic holiday beverage. The handspun Eggnog Shake is prepared with soft serve ice cream, vanilla custard, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Brandon Freeman, Krystal's senior manager for culinary innovation, says: "Customers always ask if Krystal's Eggnog Shake is spiked. We advise them to go out and purchase our Eggnog Shake, then bring it home and add two ounces of their favorite bourbon to make it boozy."

Also for the holidays this season, Krystal concocted a recipe for Eggnog Bread Pudding that uses its steamed hamburger buns in place of bread, which can also be enjoyed around the table with its Secret Stuffing recipe—which is made with 20 original Krystal burgers.
