Temps are getting ready to warm up and Dairy Queen locations in Iowa and Illinois have a deal to cool you down.

I don't know about you but seeing temperatures inch into the 60's fills my heart with hope and I'm all kinds of ready for spring. I'm not convinced ice cream ever really goes out of snack style and it's especially in line as it warms up outside.

Farmer's Almanac is calling for a stormy, soggy spring for us this year (but they also called for us to be covered in snow this winter, so make of that what you will).

The Deal For April

KCCI reports that, for select days in the month of April, Dairy Queen fans can get the chain's beloved Blizzards for just 85 cents. Honestly, one of my favorite (arguably dorky) things about the Blizzards are watching them be flipped upside down. It was magic to me 20 years ago and still is now.

If you want to redeem the sweet 85 cent Blizzard offer, you need to download the DQ app and you can get one April 10th-April 25th.

Dairy Queen just revealed their Summer Blizzard menu, which includes:

  • Peanut Butter Puppy Chow Blizzard (which sounds very Midwestern)
  • Oreo Brookie Blizzard (Oreos and a cookie/brownie combo)
  • S'mores (which fans voted as the #1 favorite)
  • Cotton Candy
  • Chocolate Dipped Strawberry

In the Quad Cities, you'll find Dairy Queens at 4756 Elmore Avenue in Davenport, 2120 53rd Street in Moline, and also locations inside Northpark and Southpark Malls.

Happy snacking!
