Chicken nuggets and milkshakes are both classic fast food items that appeal to children and adults. Chicken nuggets are a convenient and satisfying snack or meal that offer a great balance of flavor and texture, making them a favorite for people of all ages.
Milkshakes, on the other hand, are a delightful treat, especially on a hot summer day. They’re creamy, sweet, and cool, making them a perfect dessert or refreshment. The best part is that they are often available in different flavors, which cater to various tastes and preferences while adding a fun and indulgent element to any meal.
Both chicken nuggets and milkshakes are versatile, easy to enjoy, and consistently popular choices in the fast food scene. Which is why we’re in luck because Taco Bell is testing both right now. And the word is, people are enjoying these new items and have only good things to say about them.
That’s right. Taco Bell has been testing out new Churro Chillers and Chicken Nuggets. With the new nuggs come the introduction of two new sauces: Bell Sauce and Jalapeño Mustard Sauce. It’s exciting to see Taco Bell come out with chicken nuggets this season, and many seem to agree.
The Churro Chillers, featuring a sweet shake blend with cold foam and topped with churro pieces, will be available in Dulce De Leche Coffee, Sweet Vanilla, Wild Strawberry, and Mexican Chocolate flavors. Currently, these treats are being tested in Texas and Chicago locations. In fact, Taco Bell has been testing these milkshakes for a while now. And the good news is, we might be looking at a wider release soon. It seems the tests for both the chicken nuggets and the chillers have been getting promising results, so there’s no reason we shouldn’t get our hopes up.
What Fans Are Saying
Fans have expressed their excitement about the new chillers and nuggets that Taco Bell has been testing in select places. So much so that many are looking forward to the potential nationwide launch of these items. The Churro Chillers seem to be getting a ton of positive hype. However, while many are excited about getting chicken nuggets from Taco Bell, there is some skepticism around the idea of chicken nuggets being served at a Mexican restaurant. But overall, those who have had the chance to try these new items from Taco Bell report that they’re really good, adding to the anticipation of those eager to try them.

The New Taco Bell Churro Chiller Shakes
Taco Bell’s Churro Chillers will be a sweet shake with cold foam on top, finished with pieces of crunchy churro bits. These milkshakes feature a sweet cream base with syrup blended in with some ice. This is how fans describe them:
- Dulce De Leche Coffee: The flavor of Dulce De Leche comes through really nicely.
- Sweet Vanilla: It’s not a bad flavor but it is a bit plain. It may give a pleasant hint of lavender taste.
- Wild Strawberry: Has an intense strawberry flavor that goes well with the churro pieces.
- Mexican Chocolate: A pretty good option for a sweet finish to your Taco Bell meal.
According to the available reviews online, Taco Bell’s Churro Chillers are not your traditional milkshake, as they tend to have a slightly thinner consistency. One reviewer reports that the Churro Crumbles on top of the treat are more like brown sugar crystals rather than actual bits of churros. Overall, it seems one of the things to get excited about is the fact that the Churro Chillers will offer a different milkshake experience than what most are used to.
The New Taco Bell Chicken Nuggets
The Chicken Nuggets from Taco Bell are made from white meat chicken, soaked in a mild jalapeño buttermilk marinade, and coated with a crunchy mix that includes bits of tortilla. You can enjoy these nuggets with two sauces: Taco Bell’s Bell Sauce, which is tangy and savory with hints of chili peppers, or Jalapeño Honey Mustard Sauce, a nice blend of honey, mustard, and jalapeño.
Reviews available online describe Taco Bell’s Chicken Nuggets as tender on the inside and crunchy on the outside. One review says the outer crunchy coating appears to have specks of cheese which comes through in taste as well. The two sauces are also really good when paired with the nuggets, according to those who have tried this new offering from the brand.
Possibility of a Wider Launch
Taco Bell has been testing its new Crispy Chicken Nuggets since last October at select locations in Minneapolis. The Churro Chillers on the other hand, have been in testing phase at select Taco Bell restaurants since last December, along with the brand’s Coffee Chillers.
Today, curious fans can find the Chicken Nuggets in Houston, Texas, and the Churro Chillers in Dallas and Chicago. But if you’re not a resident of those cities, don’t lose hope, as Taco Bell often does these product tests on a limited-time promotion to see if it’s worth the wider release. It looks like it is, but we’ll have to stay tuned for further announcements.

From The Club
It’s a little funny to me that Taco Bell is even planning on releasing chicken nuggets. But if they do it right, then I’ll be all over it. Those shakes are sounding really good too. I’m definitely eyeing Mexican Chocolate and Dulce De Leche Coffee flavors. I’m curious about how the crunchy churro crumbles will add to the texture of a slightly thinner milkshake. Man, I really hope they release nationwide soon. It seems the feedback on these test items has been really positive, so I think Taco Bell should give everyone else a chance to try them. If they don’t, well, that’s just mean.
