Today is my birthday, and Popeye’s is giving this serious pickle lover a delicious present! How did I know?
For April Fools’ Day only, they are adding five pickle-centric menu items to their menu at select restaurants in the United States.
- Pickle Glaze Sandwich: A briny twist on the iconic Popeyes Chicken Sandwich. Featuring crispy, hand-battered chicken coated in a zesty pickle flavored glaze, topped with thick-cut pickles and served on a toasted brioche bun.
- Pickle Glaze Bone-In Wings: The signature crispy, juicy bone-in wings are tossed in a bold, tangy pickle flavored glaze, delivering the perfect balance of savory heat and briny goodness in every bite.
- Pickle Glaze Boneless Wings: All the crunch, all the flavor—none of the bones. These tender, hand-battered boneless wings are drenched in a mouthwatering pickle flavored glaze, making them a must-try for true pickle lovers.
- Fried Pickles: No pickle menu is complete without this classic! Crispy, golden-brown fried pickles are battered in Popeyes signature seasoning and fried to perfection, served with a side of creamy ranch dipping sauce.
- Pickle Lemonade: The tangy, refreshing drink you didn’t know you needed. This sweet-yet-savory lemonade is infused with real pickle juice for a surprisingly addictive sip that pairs perfectly with every item on the menu.
“We’re pickle people, so we understand that there truly can never be enough pickles. This pickle-packed lineup was created to ensure the perfect balance of crisp texture, vibrant acidity, and our world-famous Louisiana flavors with every bite. If you love that chicken, you’re going to love that pickle!” said Chef Amy Alarcon, VP of Culinary at Popeyes.
As much as I want to try the pickle lemonade, I am not sure my stomach can handle it, even though I have eaten pickles and drank lemonade at the same time. So maybe I can!
