There's a reason DQ servers flip your Blizzard upside down before handing it over: it's thick enough not to fall out. The Blizzard has been Dairy Queen's signature treat since 1985, and the flavor lineup changes every season.

How to Order Your Blizzard
Blizzards are customizable, so you can build a treat that matches your taste and budget.
Customization ideas
- Add a second mix-in, such as Oreo plus brownie or cookie dough plus fudge.
- Ask for extra mix-ins if you love a crunchy Blizzard (usually an extra charge).
- Choose chocolate soft serve instead of vanilla for a richer base.
Picking the right size
A Mini is a good after-dinner treat. A Small is enough for most adults. Medium and Large are ideal for sharing or for very big cravings.
Lighter options
If you’re watching calories, choose a Mini, pick one mix-in, or try a small cone or sundae instead.
Seasonal flavor strategy
Seasonal Blizzards usually last a few months. Try them early, because popular flavors can sell out of ingredients near the end of a promotion.
App deals and rewards
The DQ app often includes Blizzard deals and rewards. Members may also receive birthday treats, so check your profile settings.
The upside-down tradition
Many DQ restaurants serve Blizzards upside down to show how thick they are. It’s a fun tradition, not a guarantee, so don’t worry if your server skips it.
