Inspired by the mischievous Things characters, the brand-new The Things’ Blue Lemonade Freeze puts a playful twist on two of Wetzel’s classic frozen drink flavors. The eye-catching beverage layers bursting Cherry Boba with Frozen Lemonade and Blue Raspberry Granita.

Guests looking for a snack pairing can enjoy the new drink alongside Wetzel’s signature Dog Bites, made with 100% all-beef mini hot dogs wrapped in pretzel dough, or warm, soft Pizza Bitz topped with a savory slice of pepperoni and a rich three-cheese blend.

Sarah Curtis, vice president of marketing for Wetzel’s Pretzels, shared her enthusiasm for the collaboration:

“We are honored to be an official partner for this film. It’s the perfect partnership because Wetzel’s Pretzels is all about making everyday moments a little more fun and The Cat in the Hat gave us the opportunity to bring that playful spirit to life. The Things’ Blue Lemonade Freeze is a refreshingly playful mix of tart and sweet bringing a burst of fun to every sip. We are excited for The Cat in the Hat fans and Wetzel’s Pretzels lovers to stop into one of our stores and try this new drink for a limited time. Pair it with our freshly baked Dog Bites and Pizza Bitz for a crave-worthy, flavor-packed treat.”
