Taco Bell Is Making A Baja Blast Birthday Freeze As Part Of An Entirely New Menu
Slowly but surely, Taco Bell is giving fans an inside look at its upcoming pop-up hotel and resort, The Bell. This week, the brand shared details on a few new menu items coming exclusively to The Bell this August, and possibly to menus nationwide after that. Some of the items look MUCH different than what T. Bell regulars are used to—alongside tacos and Crunchwraps there are sandwiches, egg-topped nachos, and the so-called ultimate millennial staple, avocado toast.
First up: The Baja Blast Birthday Freeze, made to celebrate the cult-favorite drink's 15th anniversary. While Taco Bell hasn't said how this differs from its regular icy Baja Blasts yet, it appears to come in a sprinkle-covered cup and just might have some booze in it, if we had to guess. It will be served in the resort's "Freeze Lounge."
On the food front there's the Toasted Cheddar Club, a sandwich made with crispy chicken, jalapeño bacon, avocado, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, and an aioli. Like any good hotel sandwich, it comes with fries—and since it's Taco Bell, they're Nacho Fries. Avocado Toast-adas pile avo, radish, chipotle seasoned sorghum (a grain), and diablo puffs onto multigrain toast.
The third menu item announced could be part of the breakfast in bed options: Fire Chip Chilaquiles, fire tortilla chips covered in salsa, Mexican crema, queso fresco, pico, and a fried egg (here's the recipe, if you want to make it at home).
Aside from the menu preview (there are more test dishes to come, BTW!), Taco Bell shared new details on the resort gift shop, which will house The Bell's "exclusive resort wear line," including collabs with L*Space, Chubbies, and DIFF eyewear.
