\"Dairy<\/p>\n

If I were to be crowned Dairy King, I would decree that ice cream is a perfectly acceptable breakfast food. But Dairy Queen beat me to it with the new \u201cBreakfast Collection\u201d that includes the Choco Frosted Donut Blizzard<\/a>, Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dipped Cone, and Fruity Pebbles Shake. As a dutiful peasant of the Kingdom of Dairy, I honored the crown by partaking in all three offerings. In this review, I hereby declare that the Fruity Pebbles Shake is indeed glorious, though with one caveat.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

I had muted expectations for this shake, as I assumed it would take some kind of wizardly magic to keep the Fruity Pebbles from turning mushy in their ice cream bath. And while I\u2019m a big fan of any sugar- and\/or color-enhanced cereal, I\u2019ve always preferred Cap\u2019n Crunch (Crunch Berries, of course) or Lucky Charms. It turns out, however, that as the kids say, this really slaps.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

The fruity flavor of the fancy Rice Krispies in this shake is astounding. Plus, this is just fun to look at and to eat. I was not prepared for the delicious punch of sweetness that paired perfectly with the creaminess of the vanilla ice cream and milk. It truly was a wonderful combination packed with flavor.<\/p>\n

\"Fruity<\/p>\n

The aforementioned caveat is that it seems Dairy Queen\u2019s best wizard could not suspend the laws of physics involved with putting Fruity Pebbles into a liquid, which I guess is how a shake would be classified. I wouldn\u2019t say the cereal turned soggy, but it also wasn\u2019t crispy in any sense. I wolfed down the shake with impressive speed, so I imagine if I had done so at a more leisurely pace, then perhaps sogginess would have entered the chat. The texture was just a tad off-putting, but aside from that, this is a delicious, not-so-nutritious \u201cbreakfast.\u201d<\/p>\n

As a side note, I learned in my review of the Choco Frosted Donut Blizzard<\/a> that some Dairy Queens serve actual breakfast food during breakfast hours. Unfortunately, there are no DQs in my area that are open for breakfast, so the best I could do was have this shake shortly after 10 a.m. But I assume you can get the Breakfast Collection items before the sun comes up if you are lucky enough to live near a breakfast-enabled DQ.<\/p>\n
