Frosted Lemonade before, here\u2019s the breakdown: it\u2019s like a lemonade milkshake. I know that combo sounds disgusting but it\u2019s really a rose by any other name if you decode the marketing speak &#8211; \u201ca hand-spun combination of Chick-fil-A Lemonade (or Diet Lemonade), freshly squeezed daily, and our famous vanilla Icedream.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>By the way, Frosted drinks are classified as a \u201ctreat,\u201d which is likely Chick-fil-A\u2019s way of priming you for the sugar and calories.<\/p>\n<p>Like everything else Chick-fil-A does, their new Frosted Strawberry Lemonade is genius and fantastic. Genius because they simply add strawberry puree in their O.G. Frosted Lemonade and call it a day. Fantastic because even though it\u2019s simple, they do it right.<\/p>\n<p>When you have something as creamy and milkshake-like, the question is often: spoon or straw? <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Chick-fil-A-Frosted-Strawberry-Lemonade-2.jpg?resize=550%2C550\" alt=\"Chick fil A Frosted Strawberry Lemonade 2\" title=\"Chick-fil-A Frosted Strawberry Lemonade 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"550\" height=\"550\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I took the plunge and went for the straw because I trusted Chick-fil-A to get the texture right. My trust paid off as it was easily drinkable even though it looked creamy and thick. Given the pink tinge, I wasn\u2019t surprised that it primarily tasted like strawberry with a hint of tangy lemonade. The real strawberry pieces surprised me &#8212; there were seeds and all! <\/p>\n<p>I thought these nuggets were critical to the drink for a couple of reasons: less artificial and adds texture. Not that the drink tasted at all like artificial strawberry flavoring, but having real pieces of strawberry makes me feel like I could justify fitting this treat into the fruit group on the food pyramid. As for the strawberry puree adding texture, it\u2019s nice to have fresh fruit bits break up the thick, creamy Icedream.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Chick-fil-A-Frosted-Strawberry-Lemonade-3.jpg?resize=640%2C430\" alt=\"Chick fil A Frosted Strawberry Lemonade 3\" title=\"Chick-fil-A Frosted Strawberry Lemonade 3.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"640\" height=\"430\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In under five minutes, I was almost done with the Frosted treat. But, for you slow drinkers out there (yes, I\u2019m looking at you), I left a little bit to melt for about 10 minutes. I wanted to see if it would maintain its delicious strawberry lemonade integrity. I wondered why I even doubted Chick-fil-A because, of course, it maintained its deliciousness. I wasn\u2019t surprised that it tasted slightly sweeter and that I could smell the strawberry aroma more. <\/p>\n<p>The only downsides to the Frosted Strawberry Lemonade are that it\u2019ll give you one hell of a sugar high and it\u2019s only available for a limited time! <\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; Not available on website.)<\/small><\/p>\n<p><b>Purchased Price:<\/b> $3.19<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b> Small<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 10 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b> Genius &#8211; because it&#8217;s just their Frosted Lemonade + strawberry puree, but it\u2019s delicious!
