Happy Froyo Cinco De Mayo 2017

Fro-yo girl here. Happy Cinco De Mayo froyo fans! I’ve seen Yogurtland’s Churro flavor at multiple locations lately. I’m guessing that it’s there for Cinco De Mayo. I have a big tub of it in my freezer. It was introduced as part of Flavor Quest 2015 and last year they had the new Horchata flavor during Flavor Quest 2016. Check the Yogurtland Flavor Finder feature on their website or Real Rewards app to see if your local Yogurtland is carrying Churro froyo.

Here are some Cinco De Mayo inspired specials and froyo flavors that I found:

• Arctic Ape in San Angelo, TX, is offering a $5 flat rate cup
• Ayelada in Pittsfield, MA, just whipped up a batch of housemade Mexican chocolate frozen yogurt.
• Le Blueboy in Montreal makes fresh churros that you can add to your froyo or you can start with a churro cup and fill it with froyo to make a churro sundae.
• Fill up your cup for $5 at Menchie's Charleston Commons in Las Vegas, NV, Menchie's Gilbert, AZ and Menchie's El Paso, TX (Sunland, The Fountains, Rojas, Northeast) all day on Cinco De Mayo.
• Mention their Instagram post and get 4 ozs of froyo free at Myo Frozen Yogurt in Seaside, Monterey, Salinas and Walnut Creek, CA
• Peachwave in Simsbury, CT will bring out three dice for Cinco De Mayo. Roll a 5 for 5% off, roll two 5's for 25% off, or roll three 5's for a free cup.
• Sweet CeCe’s in Lebanon, TN (224 W Main St.) is offering 2 cups of froyo for $5.55 if you mention the code SWEET CINCO on Cinco De Mayo.
• Cinco de Froyo is back at sweetFrog with $5.55 16 oz cups, all day on Cinco De Mayo
• At Swirl Fiesta in Riverside, CA, you can get froyo with a side of elotes and esquites. Someone even put Hot Cheetos on their froyo! Maybe they’ll bring back their Horchata froyo for Cinco De Mayo? On Cinco De Mayo, enjoy a $5 flat rate cup.
• Trailside Treats in Connellsville, PA will have a $5 cup of froyo special on Cinco De Mayo
• Tru in Kelowna, British Columbia, created two flavors for Cinco De Mayo, Mexican cinnamon spice and Dulce de leche.
• Yogolandia in Chicago regularly has Mexican frozen yogurt flavors like churro, flan, cucumber and arroz con leche. They also offer some Mexican toppings.

Yogurtland’s Flavor Quest Introduces Horchata Froyo on Cinco de Mayo

Fro-yo girl here. Happy Cinco de Mayo, froyo fans! I remember celebrating last Cinco de Mayo (2015) with Pinkberry’s new Cinnamon Churro froyo.

This year Yogurtland has timed the release of its newest Flavor Quest flavor with Cinco de Mayo. It’s Horchata frozen yogurt and it’s made with real cinnamon and almonds. Yogurtland describes Horchata froyo as: “Meet Mexico’s most adored traditional beverage. With real cinnamon and almonds, this creamy treat is an authentic spoonful of the deliciously sweet Mexican rice drink.”

The non-fat Horchata flavor is creamy and smooth and it does seem quite sweet. The cinnamon flavor is noticeable but not overpowering. The dairy flavor is the strongest flavor component and there’s even a cream like finish that’s indulgent and yummy. The almonds tasted like coconut for some reason. The flavor was nice but didn’t have the strong rice-cinnamon flavor that I expected. Maybe it’s because of the almonds? Horchata is usually made with rice and no almonds.

Suggested toppings: Shortbread fingers, whipped cream, almonds

There was a new topping today: Mini shortbread cookies. These cookies are extra crunchy and didn’t become soggy despite being in contact with frozen yogurt. Yum.

Every Thursday will feature a new froyo flavor. The flavor will run for two weeks or while supplies last. Dulce de Leche Cookies didn’t last long at my Yogurtland.

Collect a stamp in your passport for every visit. The more stamps you collect, the more free froyo you can earn. Collect five stamps and get 5 free ounces. Collect ten stamps and you’ll be rewarded with 10 free ounces. Join Real Rewards to participate.

Next up: Peanut butter parfait NSA (USA) on May 12

Cinco de Mayo Froyo Style

Fro-yo girl here. Happy Cinco de Mayo froyo fans! I’m thinking back to all the Mexican inspired frozen yogurt that I’ve tried in the past and I came up with the following list:

• Dulce de leche - the most common flavor, many shops carry it
• Mexican Hot Chocolate - Yogurtland Flavor Quest flavor, from the 1st Flavor Quest
• Aztec Chili Chocolate - Easy Breezy in San Francisco, CA
• Flan - Yogurtland 2nd Annual Flavor Quest flavor 
• Horchata frozen yogurt 

If you’re in or near the Glendale, AZ, Razzleberriez has two Cinco de Mayo flavors on tap, Churro and Margarita, and a buy one, get one free offer for today.

Red Mango has a month long special called "Cinco de Mango" where you can fill up your cup for $5 Monday - Thursday. 

Haagen Dazs has a Dulce De Leche frozen yogurt available in most supermarkets.

If you can’t find any of these Mexcian inspired frozen yogurt flavors, you can always make your own. Here’s a recipe for Horchata frozen yogurt from the Food Network.
