Taco Bell Is Testing Frosé & We’ve Officially Hit Peak Rosé Season

We’re not even a week into June (a.k.a. the official start of the period in which you’re basically legally obligated to swap your go-to wine for rosé) and Taco Bell has already won rosé season. Why? Because you can now enjoy your chalupas with a glass (erm, plastic cup?) of frosé, and this is 100 percent not fake news.

On Wednesday, Taco Bell announced plans to test a new Freeze called the Berry Frosé Twisted Freeze, and yes, it’s every bit as amazing as it sounds. Made with Charles & Charles’ 2017 Rosé, Taco Bell describes the drink as, “blending with the perfect combination of berry flavors for a tasty, strawberry-forward, easy-to-sip summer treat.” (Basically, you’ll probably never order a Baja Blast or Skittles Slushie again.)

Because Taco Bell is all about giving the people what they want, their version of frosé also won’t set your bank account back double digits just for a single glass. For now, the company is testing the drink at its Newport Beach and Chicago Taco Bell Cantina locations, where it will cost $7.99 and $5.49 respectively. And if you’re (unfortunately) not located anywhere near either of these locations, I’m just saying, it just might be worth a trip.

Of course, considering the fact that we’ll all be consuming rosé like it’s water over the next few months, we have no doubt in our minds that it will be enough of a success to be rolled out across Taco Bell locations nationwide — fingers crossed, anyway.
