Kit-Kat just launched a brand new flavor, and it's inspired by a sweet soda

Kit-Kat has just launched a brand new limited-edition flavor, and it’s certainly not one you’d expect.

It arrived on store shelves across the US on Friday (May 17) and is inspired by a sweet soda that everyone knows and loves.

New Kit-Kat flavor

The new flavor is Pink Lemonade, a baby pink Kit-Kat bar that combines chocolate and wafer with pink lemonade flavor, bringing hints of strawberry and vanilla.

It consists of classic, crisp wafers wrapped in a pink lemonade-flavored creme, which Kit-Kat said delivers a “refreshing taste” with “unexpected hints of strawberry”.

“Whether you’re ready to unwind on a sandy beach or chill out in the backyard, the delightful Kit Kat Pink Lemonade Flavored Bars will snap candy lovers of all ages right into a sunshine bliss,” they added.

According to Nestlé, more than 93% of Gen Z and Millenials expressed a preference for pink lemonade treats, which is why they made the new flavor.

Kit-Kat Pink Lemonade review

Food influencer Snackolator tried the new flavor on TikTok after getting his hands on a bar early at the Sweets and Snacks Expo, and had mixed opinions.

He claimed the flavor is nice but it’s not strong enough, and you don’t get the sour or tart element you’d expect from a pink lemonade flavor.

“It almost comes off more like a white chocolate strawberry than a strawberry lemonade but you do get a little bit of it,” he said. “It’s just not that strong.”

However, he still called it a “great summer flavor” nonetheless and rated it an 8/10, just don’t be expecting it to taste exactly like pink lemonade.

Try it for yourself and see what you think! Kit-Kat Pink Lemonade is available at stores across the US that usually sell Nestlé products for a limited time.
