Dairy Queen Blizzard Menu 2026: Every Flavor with Prices, Calories & Allergens

Since 1985, the Dairy Queen Blizzard menu has been the reason most people walk through that door. DQ built its reputation on one simple trick: a treat so thick it survives an upside-down handoff without losing a drop. That tradition is still alive in 2026, and the lineup has never been bigger. This guide breaks down every flavor, price, calorie count, and allergen detail you need. Updated May 2026.

Classic Blizzards — Available Every Day

These are the permanent fixtures on the DQ Blizzard menu. You can walk into any participating location on any day of the year and order these.

OREO Cookie Blizzard

The undisputed bestseller. Crushed OREO cookies are blended into vanilla soft serve until every spoonful carries the cookies-and-cream combination that made this the top-selling Blizzard since launch day in 1985. The balance between sweet cream and bitter cocoa cookie is the reason it has never been knocked off its perch.

OREO Cookie Blizzard
  • Price: $4.99 – $7.79
  • Calories: 620 (small) / 870 (medium) / 1,060 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, OREO cookie pieces (enriched wheat flour, cocoa powder, sugar, palm oil, soy lecithin, vanilla extract)
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Wheat (W), Soy (S)
  • Gluten: Contains wheat — OREO cookie pieces are made with enriched wheat flour. Not suitable for gluten-sensitive customers.

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard

Chunked Reese’s peanut butter cups folded through vanilla soft serve. The interplay of salty peanut butter and milk chocolate against the sweet cream base makes this the most layered flavour on the classic menu. A small adds up to 570 calories, making it one of the more moderate options calorie-wise despite feeling indulgent.

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard
  • Price: $4.99 – $7.79
  • Calories: 570 (small) / 720 (medium) / 1,000 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups (milk chocolate, peanut butter, sugar, dextrose, salt, soy lecithin, TBHQ, PGPR)
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Peanut (P), Soy (S) — may also contain Egg (E), Tree Nuts (T), Wheat (W)
  • Gluten: Peanut butter cups contain no wheat by recipe, but DQ flags this flavour as “may contain” wheat due to shared equipment. Confirm with the staff if you have celiac disease.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Blizzard

Raw-style cookie dough chunks packed with chocolate chips are blended through soft serve, creating irregular pockets of soft dough in every few spoonfuls. One of the most satisfying textural experiences on the menu — you never quite know when the next chunk is coming.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Blizzard
  • Price: $4.09 – $5.89
  • Calories: 590 (small) / 830 (medium) / 1,010 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, cookie dough pieces (enriched wheat flour, brown sugar, chocolate chips, butter, soy lecithin)
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Wheat (W), Soy (S), Egg (E)
  • Gluten: Contains wheat flour in the cookie dough. Not gluten-free.

M&M’s Milk Chocolate Candies Blizzard

Whole and crushed M&M’s blended through soft serve — the candy shells hold their crunch longer than most mix-ins, giving this Blizzard more texture longevity than anything with baked goods. The colour contrast makes it one of the most visually appealing options in the lineup.

M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies Blizzard
  • Price: $3.99 – $5.59
  • Calories: 540 (small) / 630 (medium) / 870 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, M&M’s Milk Chocolate Candies (milk chocolate, sugar, corn starch, corn syrup, soy lecithin, natural and artificial flavouring, food colouring)
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Soy (S) — may contain Wheat (W), Peanut (P)
  • Gluten: M&M’s are gluten-free by recipe but flagged as “may contain” wheat by DQ due to shared processing. Cross-contact risk from shared blending equipment.

Snickers Blizzard

Chopped Snickers bars — chocolate, caramel, nougat, and roasted peanuts — blended into soft serve. The combination of sweet, salty, chewy, and crunchy elements gives this Blizzard genuine complexity. It is also one of the three flavors considered lower risk for gluten-sensitive customers.

Snickers Blizzard
  • Price: $4.79 – $6.49
  • Calories: 530 (small) / 800 (medium) / 1,060 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, Snickers pieces (milk chocolate, peanuts, caramel, nougat, sugar, corn syrup, soy lecithin)
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Peanut (P), Soy (S)
  • Gluten: No wheat in ingredients. One of three Blizzards is considered gluten-free by ingredient on the DQ menu. Shared blending equipment still poses cross-contact risk.

Butterfinger Blizzard

Crispy Butterfinger candy pieces — that distinctive honeycomb peanut butter crunch coated in chocolate — blended into soft serve. The texture here is the selling point: Butterfinger holds its crunch better than most soft candy mix-ins, making every spoonful more interesting than expected.

Butterfinger Blizzard
  • Price: $3.99 – $6.19
  • Calories: 490 (small) / 730 (medium) / 970 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, Butterfinger pieces (corn syrup, peanut flour, sugar, palm oil, cocoa, soy lecithin)
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Peanut (P), Soy (S) — may contain Wheat (W)
  • Gluten: Butterfinger is gluten-free by formula but processed on shared lines and flagged as “may contain” wheat by DQ. Cross-contact risk applies.

Turtle Pecan Cluster Blizzard

Pecan pieces, caramel sauce, and chocolate shavings blended into soft serve. The nuttiness of pecans against warm caramel and cold cream is the most grown-up flavour profile on the classic menu — and alongside Snickers and Cotton Candy, one of the three Blizzards that contain no wheat by ingredient.

Turtle Pecan Cluster Blizzard
  • Price: ~$6.23
  • Calories: 660 (small) / 990 (medium) / 1,370 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, pecan pieces, caramel sauce (sugar, corn syrup, butter, cream), chocolate shavings
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Tree Nuts (T), Soy (S) — may contain Wheat (W), Peanut (P)
  • Gluten: No wheat in ingredients — one of the safest options for gluten-sensitive customers. Cross-contact risk from shared equipment still applies.

Heath Blizzard

Pieces of Heath toffee bars — buttery English toffee coated in milk chocolate with slivered almonds — blended into vanilla soft serve. Sweet, nutty, and rich without being as heavy as the chocolate-dominant flavors. A solid choice for anyone who finds Snickers or Reese’s too intense.

Heath Blizzard
  • Price: $4.79 – $6.23
  • Calories: 460 (small) / 600 (medium) / 890 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, Heath bar pieces (butter toffee, milk chocolate, slivered almonds, sugar, corn syrup, soy lecithin)
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Tree Nuts (T/almonds), Soy (S) — may contain Wheat (W), Peanut (P)
  • Gluten: Health is flagged as “may contain” wheat. Cross-contact risk applies.

Choco Brownie Extreme Blizzard

Chewy fudge brownie pieces, chocolate chunks, and rich cocoa fudge sauce blended through soft serve. The most intensely chocolate-forward option in the classic lineup — and with up to 1,330 calories in a large, one of the most calorie-dense Blizzards DQ makes.

  • Price: $3.99 – $6.19
  • Calories: 740 (small) / 810 (medium) / 1,330 (large)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, brownie pieces (enriched wheat flour, sugar, cocoa, eggs, butter, soy lecithin), chocolate chunks, cocoa fudge sauce
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Wheat (W), Egg (E), Soy (S)
  • Gluten: Contains wheat flour in brownie pieces. Not gluten-free.

Key takeaway: Snickers and Turtle Pecan Cluster are the smartest picks for anyone watching gluten. OREO is the crowd favourite. Choco Brownie Extreme is for serious chocolate lovers only.

Royal Blizzard Treats — Premium Range

Royal Blizzards are an elevated tier — each one features a flavoured ribbon or filled centre core running through the entire cup alongside the standard mix-ins. More layered, more intense, and slightly higher in price.

Royal Reese’s Fluffernutter Blizzard

Peanut butter, marshmallow fluff, and Reese’s peanut butter cup pieces blended throughout soft serve, with a peanut butter ribbon running through the centre. The marshmallow adds an unexpected lightness that stops the flavour from becoming overwhelmingly rich.

Royal Reese's Fluffernutter Blizzard
  • Price: $4.39 – $6.50 (by size)
  • Calories: 720 (small)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, Reese’s PB Cup pieces, marshmallow sauce, peanut butter ribbon
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Peanut (P), Soy (S) — may contain Wheat (W), Egg (E), Tree Nuts (T)
  • Gluten: DQ lists this as “may contain” wheat. Confirm with local staff if gluten-sensitive.

Royal New York Cheesecake Blizzard

New York-style cheesecake pieces with graham cracker crust bits and a chocolate or strawberry fudge centre ribbon. The tang of the cheesecake against sweet soft serve is genuinely different from anything else on the menu — the most dessert-forward Blizzard DQ makes.

Royal New York Cheesecake Blizzard
  • Price: $4.09 – $5.99
  • Calories: 750 (small)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, cheesecake pieces (cream cheese, sugar, eggs), graham cracker crust (wheat flour, sugar, butter, honey), chocolate or strawberry fudge centre
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Wheat (W), Egg (E), Soy (S)
  • Gluten: Contains wheat flour in the graham cracker crust. Not suitable for gluten-sensitive customers.

Salted Caramel Truffle Blizzard

Rich caramel truffle pieces and salted caramel sauce ribboned through vanilla soft serve. At 990 calories in a small, this is the most calorie-dense item in the Royal range — but the balance of sweet cream and flaked sea salt makes it genuinely hard to put down.

Salted Caramel Truffle Blizzard
  • Price: $4.79 – $5.49
  • Calories: 990 (small)
  • Ingredients: Vanilla soft serve, salted caramel truffle pieces (sugar, cocoa butter, cream, sea salt, soy lecithin), caramel ribbon sauce
  • Allergens: Milk (M), Soy (S) — may contain Wheat (W), Egg (E), Tree Nuts (T)
  • Gluten: Truffle pieces may contain wheat. Cross-contact risk from shared equipment.

Key takeaway: Royal Blizzards are the premium tier worth ordering when you want something genuinely different from a standard candy-in-ice-cream experience. The Cheesecake is the most unique; the Fluffernutter is the most indulgent.

 2026 New Releases and Blizzard of the Month

2026 has already been one of DQ’s most active years for new Blizzard releases. Here is every new and limited-edition flavour that has launched so far this year.

OREO Snowdrift Blizzard (January 2026 — Blizzard of the Month)

Dairy Queen launched 2026 with a genuinely striking new creation. Sky-blue cake-batter-flavoured soft serve is blended with crushed OREO cookie pieces and finished with a pillowy marshmallow swirl on top. The colour alone set it apart from anything DQ had done recently, and the cake batter base gave the cream a sweeter, richer dimension than plain vanilla. Reviewer scores put it at 10 out of 10, and the fan response was immediate — social media lit up calling it “perfect for winter” and “the best Blizzard in years.”

OREO Snowdrift Blizzard (January 2026 — Blizzard of the Month)

Mocha Brownie Mudslide Blizzard (2026 Launch)

Red Velvet Cake Blizzard

One of DQ’s most requested returning flavours. Red velvet cake pieces and cream cheese icing are blended into vanilla soft serve for a rich, tangy, celebration-ready Blizzard. The cream cheese element cuts through the sweetness, making this feel more like a real dessert than a candy-forward treat. Fans had been asking for its return for over a year before DQ brought it back for Valentine’s Day 2026.

  • Availability: Limited-time seasonal return — confirm with your local DQ.

Mint OREO Blizzard

A perennial fan favourite that returns every spring. Creme de menthe flavour is blended into vanilla soft serve alongside crushed OREO pieces, creating a cool, refreshing contrast to the sweet cream base. The mint cuts through the richness in a way that makes this one of the most sessionable Blizzards on the annual calendar.

Mint OREO Blizzard

Strawberry Angel Food Cake Blizzard (NEW — Countdown to Summer 2026)

The headline new flavour of DQ’s 2026 Countdown to Summer collection, which launched on March 30, 2026. Real strawberries and pieces of light, airy angel food cake are blended into vanilla soft serve and finished with whipped topping. It is the fruitiest and most delicate Blizzard DQ has released in years — genuinely different from the candy-and-cookie lineup that dominates the menu. Early customer reaction has been overwhelmingly positive.

Strawberry Angel Food Cake Blizzard
  • Price: $4.99 – $7.79 (by size)
  • Calories: ~550 (small, estimated)

These are the returning seasonal flavours that launched alongside the new Strawberry Angel Food Cake in the Countdown to Summer collection.

S’mores Blizzard (Summer 2026 — Returning)

Marshmallow-filled DQ chocolate bars and crushed graham crackers blended into vanilla soft serve. The graham cracker pieces add a sandy texture that completes the campfire s’more illusion. A returning fan favourite that generates consistent enthusiasm every summer, it comes back.

Cotton candy flavour pieces — airy, sugar-spun carnival sweetness — blended into vanilla soft serve. The lightest Blizzard on the seasonal menu at around 430 calories in a small, and one of only three Blizzards on the entire menu that contains no wheat ingredients. Fans have been so loyal to this one that some claim they order nothing else at DQ.

Cotton Candy Blizzard

  • Calories: ~430 (small)
