Bojangles is introducing its own Hard Sweet Tea with alcohol
The new item has surprised some people because the American fast-food restaurant is well-known for its buttermilk biscuits and fried chicken with cajun seasoning.
The chain does provide its legendary iced tea, which is brewed with real cane sugar and fresh every day. Continue reading to learn everything there is to know about the new beverage, including when and where you can buy it.
Bojangles hard sweet tea with alcohol release date, locations, ingredients and flavor
The restaurant chain collaborated on the delectable new beverage with Appalachian Mountain Brewery (AMB), a business located in neighbouring North Carolina. The brand, which was established in 2013, uses a sustainable brewing method to produce beer and cider with a “southern touch,” and revenues from each case sold are donated to groups in the mountain community.
To make the delectable new beverage, they blended Bojangles’ “knowledge of perfectly steeped sweet tea” with AMB’s “award-winning brewing innovation.” Although the actual flavour is currently unknown, it is described as an easy-drinking, pleasant hard tea.
It’ll probably taste a lot like the sweet iced tea that Bojangles serves.
Availability Of The New Beverage
The Hard Sweet Tea will only be available at participating merchants in the Carolinas, so you won’t be able to order it at Bojangles restaurants. This covers both independent stores and national brands including Food Lion, Harris Teeter, Ingles, Sheetz, Lowes, QT, and QT.
North and South Carolina will be the first states to offer it for sale, with availability in additional states to follow. There will be 12-packs, 12-ounce cans, and single 16-ounce cans of the beverage available.
Is It Going On Sale When?
The brand stated in a news statement that the beverage is “anticipated” to be sold starting in March 2023. “Bojangles Hard Sweet Tea will be ideal for hosting in the spring, going on vacation in the summer, tailgating in the fall, and any other time when you want to bring the excitement,” they continued.
Bojangles’ Chief Brand and Marketing Officer, Jackie Woodward, referred to the collaboration as a “natural fit” and asserted that the team “poured enthusiasm into the entire process.” She added that people have been tweeting about how happy they are about the new drink, and stated they can’t wait for fans to sample it.
