7-11 Turned Cap’n Crunch Cereal Into A Slurpee — We’re Scared To Try It

Everyone knows that the best way to cool down in the summer is with a cold drink. It could be iced coffee, or it could be something that’ll make you nostalgic for your teenage years — a Slurpee. Even though the standard flavors will always be there (cherry, Coca-Cola, and “blue”), it’s always exciting when a seasonal Slurpee pops up. And according to many fans, it’s going to be the summer of Cap’n Crunch.

Yes, you read that right. The flavor was unveiled at 7-11 stores on June 29th, and it sounds intriguing. Officially called Cap’n Crunch Crunchberry Slurpee drink, it looks to be a teal in color. That means it’s kinda-sorta perfect for Instagram. And if you’re a fan of the new drink, you can also grab an official Cap’n Crunch t-shirt in stores. Perfect for cereal fans, and hey — it might be a collector’s item someday.

Now, here’s the bad news: The new drink got mixed reviews on Twitter, with plenty of hardcore Slurpee fans saying that the combination is a little weird. There’s a pretty decent chance you’ve never eaten Crunchberries frozen and blended before, so that reaction makes a lot of sense.

First and foremost, here’s what 7-11’s creation looks like:

Here’s some praise. For the record, those who mentioned the mouth-shredding effect of Cap’n Crunch cereal are on the nose. (Still, every bowl was worth it.)

It’s an overall positive that cereal fans at least gave the strange combo a shot. Sometimes, you never know what might become an instant classic. While the Cap’n Crunch Slurpee isn’t for everyone, it’s nice to see the Cap’n represented at one of the most iconic convenience stores out there.

Obsessed with cereal? Same. I mean, just take a look at our cereal-inspired layer cake (which we made in a waffle iron for bonus breakfast points).

Breakfast and dessert combined? Yes, please!
