Those long lines at the Chick-fil-A drive-thru may be about to get even longer.
The beloved “home of the original chicken sandwich” is adding two items to its summer menu — one new, and one returning summer favorite.
The peach milkshake is back for its usual summer run, as it has been for the last 14 years.

The company calls it one of it’s “most popular shakes,” perhaps because it includes actual peach puree and not just artificial peach flavoring.
In addition to the milkshake, however, Chick-fil-A is adding a new entrée to its menu — the maple pepper bacon sandwich.

The new sandwich was tested — apparently successfully — last year in Indianapolis and Lexington, Kentucky, according to the company’s “press room” web page.
“The sandwich is made with a lemon herb marinated boneless breast of chicken, grilled for a tender, smoky taste,” according to the site. “It is served on a buttery and toasted maple flavored brioche bun, topped with Pepper Jack cheese, green leaf lettuce, bacon hand-tossed in a brown sugar and pepper blend, topped with sweet and spicy pickles.”
Are you excited to try the new Chick-fil-A menu?
Allison Duncan, Chick-fil-A’s director of menu and packaging, said the new sandwich was only the latest in the company’s attempts to change up its offerings.
“We are always looking for ways to make unique twists to our entrée selection and the Maple Pepper Bacon Sandwich is a delicious spin on the Chick-fil-A flavors our Guests know and love,” Duncan said. “It is a delicious blend of sweet, savory and spicy, offering an entirely different flavor profile than any other sandwich we’ve launched.
“We have several new and exciting offerings in the pipeline and look forward to continuing to surprise our Guests with bold, new tastes in the future,” she added.

There was some question as to when, precisely, these items would be available, as the website said consumers could order them beginning on June 10 but a tweet from the company said June 12.
Starting Monday, June 12, the beloved Peach Milkshake returns to restaurants nationwide, alongside the refreshing White Peach Sunjoy®, for a limited time while supplies last. 🍑 Read about Chick-fil-A’s kick-start to summer and delicious menu updates: https://t.co/E4IrEZzqXA pic.twitter.com/ODwRseNrZE

Either way, Chick-fil-A fans have less than a week to go before they’ll be able to get their hands on these items which, the company has been careful to note, will only be available “while supplies last.”

As if the lines at the Chick-fil-A drive-thru weren’t long enough already.
A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:
“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them.
Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal.
And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people.
The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.
We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.
But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight.
The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help?
With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed trStephen A. Smith Lights Up Analyst Over WNBA Delusion, Caitlin Clark Jealousy - 'Who Talks About the WNBA?!'uth to millions of Americans.
We can do this only with your help. Please don’t wait one minute. Donate right now.
