It’s just about the season for Jack Frost to be nipping at noses – and also for Wendy’s to introduce some holiday flavors to its frosty menu. The change in lineup, which emphasizes peppermint just in time for winter, means some other items will be swapped out for the time being, including the strawberry frosty, a move that already has fast food patrons reacting passionately.
Now, some people are – rightfully – ushering in the winter holiday seasons already with decorations, movies, carols, and desserts already, but isn’t it a bit early to determine the changes Wendy’s has planned for its menu? Well, these updates haven’t yet taken effect but come allegedly from a leaked internal document outlining plans that have patrons salivating. Here’s what to expect.

Those are listed as garlic fries, Italian mozzarella chicken sandwich, Italian mozzarella cheeseburger, and the peppermint frosty. As for the vanilla frosty flavor, that will return to the menu in early 2023 while strawberry takes a backseat to make room for peppermint.
What can you sink your teeth into this autumn and winter?
Anyone looking to take a swig of the festive, holiday peppermint flavor frosty can expect the traditional vanilla frosty base, which is then mixed with peppermint syrup. The appeal of peppermint during winter actually dates back centuries to Germany – just like Christmas tree lighting – and was exacerbated by the advent of candy canes as holiday icons.
As for the other anticipated menu additions, the garlic fries combines Wendy’s celebrated wedges with garlic seasoning, while the Italian mozzarella cheeseburger has a beef patty topped with melted mozzarella, then fried mozzarella, marinara sauce, and a garlic knot bun. The sandwich is almost identical except the meat of choice is a fried chicken breast.
