Actually, maybe more pleasure, because I have serious doubts my presence gives said employees that much joy, but this frosty drink certainly did for me.<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly, I didn\u2019t taste the lemonade, but the pleasant yet not overpowering lime flavor came through along with the vanilla soft serve. The lime gave it a nice tart and sour taste that was well balanced against the sweetness of the soft serve.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>The word \u201cpie\u201d \u2014 one of the greatest words in the English language \u2014 is absent from this product\u2019s name, and that\u2019s my only quibble here. As is, the Frosted Key Lime is delicious. Maybe it\u2019s because I got spoiled by some of the Dairy Queen Blizzards with graham cracker crumbs to complete the pie experience, but I couldn\u2019t help but think the addition of that taste and texture might take this to the next level. Unfortunately, I do not carry graham cracker crumbs on my person (except sometimes accidentally after eating pie), so my theory is still unproven. <\/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\/2019\/04\/Chick-fil-A-Frosted-Key-Lime-Top.jpg?resize=600%2C714&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chick fil A Frosted Key Lime Top\" title=\"Chick-fil-A Frosted Key Lime Top.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"714\" \/><\/p>\n<p>According to Chick-fil-A, the green color of the Frosted Key Lime comes from spirulina and turmeric. Not having any idea what the former is and only an inkling on the latter, I turned to my friend Google, who informed me that spirulina is a \u201cbiomass of cyanobacteria.\u201d Mmmm, sounds good, right? It turns out it\u2019s just blue-green algae. That\u2019s certainly not something I would normally put in my drink, but that description at least sounded a little more palatable. At that point, however, I decided to end my biology lesson and let the turmeric mystery remain unsolved. <\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\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\/2019\/04\/Chick-fil-A-Frosted-Key-Lime-Spoon.jpg?resize=600%2C496&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chick fil A Frosted Key Lime Spoon\" title=\"Chick-fil-A Frosted Key Lime Spoon.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"496\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Even though what is essentially a lime shake might not seem like anything special, this does stand out compared to the endless variety of shake flavors available.
