What is the Taco Bell Sour Strawberry Skittles Freeze?<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re a fan of Taco Bell\u2019s <\/a>Strawberry Skittles Freeze, you can now get a mouth puckering upgrade with an added pump of sour green syrup.<\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

Do you like Sour Skittles, but hate the coarse mouth-ripping sugar they\u2019re coated in?<\/p>\n

I mean, even if you love that tart palate-scraping sand, I have no doubt you\u2019ll love the Sour Strawberry Skittles Freeze. This drink is a pretty spot-on representation of its namesake candy.<\/p>\n

\"Taco<\/p>\n

Actually, while I was sipping this, I had a revelation \u2013 I never eat Skittles individually. I toss at least 4 in my mouth at once, so I\u2019m not sure I\u2019ve ever actually experienced the true standalone flavor of a Skittle. I guess I can officially confirm that Sour Strawberry is an elite Skittles flavor.<\/p>\n

The level of sourness is right on par with Sour Skittles, but the fact it\u2019s a frozen drink counteracts the usual feeling of thirst you\u2019d have after polishing off a bag.<\/p>\n

Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n

\"Taco<\/p>\n

As often happens, the advertising photos of this drink looked much better than the finished product. The sour syrup wasn\u2019t striped throughout, but rather pooled at the bottom of the cup.<\/p>\n

For some reason that didn\u2019t register with my pre-frozen brain, so only my first few sips tasted like a delicious sour Slush Puppy.<\/p>\n

If I wasn\u2019t an aloof dope, I would have mixed it immediately to try and extend the sour sensation. I only ended up getting about five sour sips before it turned back into a normal Strawberry Skittles Freeze.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not mad about it though, the regular is just as delicious and authentic to the candy I love, and it acted as a tasty palate cleanser.<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

This refreshing drink was a great counterbalance to Taco Bell\u2019s food, and I now realize I\u2019ve been sleeping on their frozen drink menu for far too long.<\/p>\n

Go enjoy one before National Skittles Day*.<\/p>\n

*Which I’ve just declared as November 1st aka Half Price Halloween Candy Day!!!<\/p>\n
