Chick-fil-A Peppermint Chip Milkshake Review

Why do I cough every time I drink a milkshake?

Read my last Chick-fil-A review of the Banana Pudding Milkshake here.

The Peppermint Chip Milkshake from Chick-fil-A is back for the holiday season, offering the ultimate winter indulgence for fans of peppermint and chocolate. This seasonal favorite is hand-spun with Chick-fil-A’s signature Icedream dessert, bits of peppermint bark chips, and topped with whipped cream and a cherry (optional with delivery).

As a first-time taster, I initially thought the shake was made with peppermint concentrate blended with chocolate bark chips. The first half was overwhelmingly peppermint-forward, thanks to the abundance of candy cane pieces. However, after stirring, the flavor profile became much more balanced, allowing the chocolate bark chips to shine. The creamy texture, a hallmark of all Chick-fil-A milkshakes, elevated the experience. Stirring it up with the whipped cream brought everything together for a truly indulgent treat.

Final Verdict

Texture: Smooth and creamy, just as expected from Chick-fil-A shakes.

Flavor: Bold peppermint initially, but perfectly balanced once stirred.

Score: 8/10 for general audiences, but a must-try 10/10 for peppermint lovers.

Exceptional Service

Ordering through the Chick-fil-A mobile app made the experience even sweeter. Using the mobile drive-thru, I had my shake in hand in under five minutes—proof of Chick-fil-A's stellar service during the busy holiday season.
