Chick-fil-A Watermelon Mint beverage lineup: Items, availability, and other details explored

With a seasonal beverage that has returned due to popular demand, Chick-fil-A is urging customers to make the most of spring. Customers can treat themselves to Watermelon Mint Lemonade at participating restaurants of the chain across the US, beginning on Monday, April 3.

The Watermelon Mint Lemonade was first introduced in 2017, and since then has gained a devoted following. The drink's popularity prompted its return and spurred the creation of new iterations of the chain's signature drinks.

Leslie Neslage, Director of Menu and Packaging at Chick-Fil-A, said in a statement:

"Seasonal variations of our signature beverages continue to gain popularity with our customers. Guests loved the Watermelon Mint Lemonade in 2017, so we are thrilled to bring it back to our menu and introduce new ways for guests to enjoy this flavor."
