8/4/2026, 12:59:38 PM
New Blizzard Flavor and August Promotion
On August 3, Dairy Queen introduced the Caramel Apple Cheesecake Blizzard, blending its soft-serve base with cheesecake pieces and caramel-apple topping. The same day the chain launched a “buy-one-get-one for 99 ¢” offer for Blizzard treats. The discount is available only to DQ Rewards members through the DQ mobile app, can be redeemed once per day, and remains in effect through the end of August.
Seasonal Context and Recent Releases
The new Blizzard arrives as Dairy Queen shifts from its summer lineup toward fall-inspired items. Earlier in the year, the brand rolled out three Blizzard Cups tied to the soccer World Cup, a release noted on June 29. It has also introduced limited-time flavors for America’s 250th anniversary, such as the Stars & Stripes Misty Slush Float, and earlier summer Blizzard flavors like the Mochi Blizzard, Biscoff Cookie Blizzard, and Mexican-style Hot Chocolate Blizzard.
Promotion Details and Rewards Program
The “Double Flip” BOGO promotion lets members purchase one Blizzard and add a second of equal or lesser value for 99 ¢. The offer is accessed via the DQ website or app and is limited to one redemption per day. By structuring the deal as a digital coupon, Dairy Queen aims to drive app engagement while giving fans a cost-saving incentive as the season transitions from summer to fall.
Upcoming Fall Treat Collection
Later in August, the chain will roll out its Fall Treat Collection, featuring the returning Pumpkin Pie Blizzard, a new Brown Sugar Cookie Dough Blizzard, and a Toasted Marshmallow Mocha DQ Coffee Cooler. These items are slated to appear at the end of August for a limited time, rounding out Dairy Queen’s seasonal menu shift.
