Summer is berry season and Popeyes is leaning into the seasonal fare with the launch of a new Strawberry Biscuit.
Popeyes customers at select locations in the St. Louis, Missouri area recently reported seeing a new Strawberry Biscuit on the menu. The new dish combines the buttery goodness of a classic Popeyes biscuit with hunks of sweet strawberries and a drizzle of white icing on top. The result is a sweet and salty combination that's perfect for the summer.
Unfortunately, it does not appear that the new Strawberry Biscuit will roll out to all Popeyes locations nationwide. However, some eagle-eyed customers have spotted the biscuits all the way in Maryland, so keep your eye out for this seasonal treat.
