Burger King’s Halloween Menu Is Disappointing, But At Least There’s Vampire Sprite

There’s nothing I love more than a crisp Sprite after a long day and pair with some Burger King fries—now that’s something I can always get behind. Honestly, there are few fast-food combos more reliable than an icy soda and salty fries. Speaking of Sprite and Burger King, the fast food chain just added a new limited-time soda to its menu and it’s perfect for Halloween season. And if you’re anything like us, the second a fast-food chain gives a perfectly normal drink a spooky makeover, you’re going to want to try it.

Vampire Bite Strawberry & Sprite 

Starting now, fans will find the Vampire Bite Strawberry & Sprite at Burger King restaurants nationwide. This beverage is a combination of Sprite and strawberry flavoring to create a bloody-red look similar to what would come out of a vampire bite, hence the name. It’s sweet, fizzy, fruity, and, most importantly, extremely committed to the Halloween theme. Plus, for some extra fun you can opt for the edible straw that’s both tarte and chewy. An edible straw? At this point, we’re basically obligated to investigate. Oh, and it comes in a cute cup with a graphic of a vampire to keep the theme going. Essentially, you can drink your beverage in style whether in the car or at home on the couch—we don’t judge.

Unfortunately, Burger King isn’t bringing back any of its former Halloween menu items this year like the Jack-O-Lantern Whopper, Vampire Nuggets, Mummy Mozzarella Fries, and the Franken-Candy Sundae. That said, we’ll take what we can get from Burger King and this strawberry-flavored soda is high on the list. We may still be mourning those other spooky-season favorites, but a strawberry Sprite situation is a pretty solid consolation prize.

When To Get The New Vampire Bite Strawberry & Sprite

The new Vampire Bite Strawberry & Sprite is a limited-time menu offering and will only be available at participating Burger King locations for Halloween season. If you’re craving a bubbly and sweet beverage to pair along with your Whopper, then you’ll want to get your hands (or shall we say teeth) on this drink as soon as possible. Seasonal fast-food items have a habit of disappearing just when you decide you’re finally ready to try them. And honestly, we’d rather bite into this one now than suffer from a serious case of FOMO later.
