CHICK-FIL-A has announced some big menu changes for the summer, with several new items on their way.

Customers may be particularly excited about a popular milkshake that is returning to the fast food chain.

Several new options will be coming to Chick-fil-A on Monday, June 12, including the return of the peach milkshake for a limited time. 

This seasonal drink combines the restaurant’s signature Ice Dream flavor with juicy peaches - topped off with whipped cream and a cherry.

“With each passing year, our peach milkshake's loyal followers eagerly await its annual comeback,” said Leslie Neslage, director of menu and packaging at Chick-fil-A.

The peach milkshake was inspired by the family recipe of a Chick-fil-A chef, which featured peach ice cream made with a classic hand-crank machine.
