Chick-fil-A is once again delighting fans with the return of a popular menu item. Known for its commitment to quality, the restaurant has been a favorite of many, earning playful nicknames like ‘the Lord’s chicken’ due to its Sunday closures. While Chick-fil-A has introduced numerous exciting menu items over the years, they’ve also removed some fan favorites. However, the return of a classic item is set to bring joy to many.
Recent rumors hinted at the comeback of Chick-fil-A’s renowned banana pudding milkshake. Initially, there was doubt about the validity of these rumors, as fast food chains often tease with promises that don’t always come true. But the excitement proved justified: Chick-fil-A will indeed bring back the banana pudding milkshake nationwide starting August 26th.
In addition to the milkshake, Chick-fil-A is also reintroducing the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich on the same date. This sandwich, which includes pimento cheese and pickled jalapeños, will now be available with spicy chicken, adding a new level of flavor to the fan favorite.
Bridget Olson from All Recipes had an early taste of the banana pudding milkshake. The shake, made with real bananas and vanilla wafer cookies, is topped with whipped cream and a cherry. Olson described it as delicious and nostalgic, noting that it tastes homemade with no artificial flavors.
For those who enjoy coffee, Chick-fil-A is also launching a new Banana Frosted Coffee. This drink combines the flavors of the banana pudding milkshake with cold-brewed coffee, blended and chilled to match the chain’s usual frosted coffees.
With these exciting additions, Chick-fil-A is sure to satisfy both new and longtime fans with a blend of sweet, savory, and nostalgic flavors.
