Sonic rolls out minty desserts for the holidays

November 20, 2013

Sonic Drive-In has introduced two minty options in time for the holiday season — the Vanilla Holiday Mint Shake and the Chocolate Holiday Mint Molten Cake Sundae.

Made with Sonic's Real Ice Cream, these two seasonal desserts are joined by the return of the Chocolate Holiday Mint Shake from 2012.

"We are known for our great desserts, and the holiday season presents an opportunity to do something fun with the nostalgic flavor of mint," said Chef Claes Petersson, vice president of product innovation of Sonic Corp. "Once we layer in sweet vanilla and crunchy mint to our creamy and rich Real Ice Cream, the flavor profile is distinctly holiday and undoubtedly Sonic."

• The Vanilla Holiday Mint Shake features Sonic's hand-mixed Real Ice Cream Vanilla Shake with crushed holiday mints, topped with whipped topping, more crushed mints and a cherry.
• The Chocolate Holiday Mint Molten Cake Sundae starts with Sonic's molten chocolate cake, filled with hot fudge and covered with Real Ice Cream, more hot fudge, crushed holiday mints, whipped topping and a cherry.

The holiday dessert items are available all day, but only for a limited time through December.
