[New for Dec 2019] The Peppermint Hot Cocoa is back, and that's a good thing, because apparently I forgot to review it in 2019 or 2020. It seems like it's right up my alley, so let's take a spoonful of...
Dairy Queen Peppermint Hot Cocoa Blizzard
peppermint candy cane pieces, choco chunks, cocoa fudge blended in soft serve
Boy that's a pretty blizzard! I can't wait to dive in!
I am a sucker for minty things, especially peppermint things when the cold months hit.
This blizzard is just fun. Plain and simple.
I can't say the cocoa flavored soft serve is amazing or anything, but on the whole, yeah, this is just a fun winter blizzard.
random thought: why has DQ never done a white chocolate blizzard? so say this blizzard, but with white chocolate instead of cocoa fudge to flavor the base. Would that be H-D Peppermint Bark good? One can dream.
Anyway, yeah, I enjoyed this blizzard for sure. I don't know if I'll get it next time we go, but I might. It had enough peppermint flavor, and there were enough bits (today anyway), but I kind of feel like I'd dig a bit more texture to this one (aka something more like the Candy Cane Oreo blizzard)
Warning: as with all DQ blizzard reviews, your mileage may vary.
Verdict? fun
Buy Again? probably?

My three kids and I all loved this one. Looks like they really jazzed up your whipped topping too! They forgot my whipped cream, but I noticed and made them add it. But no candy cane pieces on top. I'm with you on texture....maybe brownie or oreo tossed in??? Or how about a chocolate filled truffle? I like the caramel filled ones when they are added to blizzards.
