These new Wendy's spring menu items are being launched by the brand with the seasonal shift in mind to offer customers a satisfying meal option that doesn't hold back with on-trend flavors.
The brand is introducing the new Cajun Crunch Sandwich alongside the Tangerine Twist Lemonade, which each prioritize a distinct flavor profile. The Cajun Crunch Sandwich starts off with a seasoned piece of chicken topped with pepper jack cheese, onions, pickles, lettuce and spicy mustard. The Tangerine Twist Lemonade, on the other hand, features a sweeter take on the classic drink with additional citrus notes in every sip.
The new Wendy's spring menu items are being offered now and will be available throughout the warm weather months.
