Not sure why during a cold spell, I get a hankering for a Dairy Queen Blizzard.

My go to is the Cookie Jar blizzard. It's a combo of Oreo and Cookie dough.

Heath.

On a hot summer day, I'll go for strawberry/banana though too.

Heath is my fave, easily.

Oreo. It's objectively the best. No need to complicate the Blizzard.
That's where I've always been until the cookie jar came out. Try it.

man, tough question.  love the blizzard.

heath is my main go to.  but i will go with a reece's peabo cup blizzard or an oreo blizzard every now and then to switch things up.  

that said, as hard as it was to not order a blizzard, i took a flyer last visit on one of these, and it was in fact, money.

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup 

 

butterfinger + reese's FTW

the worst is when they fail to provide the necessary amount of topping and it's mostly just vanilla ice cream with a few specks of the good stuff.  resembles a sonic blast.  I call it "getting blasted."  always a bad omen.

a bad blizzard is still purdy fucking good, but your point stands...or remains upside down in a cup.

well, no.  supper chocolatey brownie and oreos.  probably not that different than the brownie based blizzards but unblended 

i'm sure its like 3200 calories

Why they stopped making Mint Oreo a year-round, always-on-the-menu item, I don't know, but I do know that every time it is on the menu, I'm getting it -- if I see "Mint Oreo Blizzard is back!" on the marquee, I'm pulling in whether I'm hungry or not.

Chocolate covered cherry. 
Its cherries and their dip chocolate mixed in.   Fucking delicious.

I’m gonna channel my inner type 2 diabetic here, but the solution to this is order extra topping/candy. Or to make sure they actually do give extra, order a combo of your toppings, say Oreo AND Reese’s. 

I liked that “Strawberry Cheese-Quake” one they had...I think you can still get strawberries and cheesecake together. And the fruit makes it healthy

Yup.

When I was younger we came up with the great idea of making our own blizzards. Turns out three packs of Reese’s buttercups in one home made blizzard leads to a stomach ache 

Third vote for Heath, but there ain’t a nearby location anymore. 

My favorite blizzard is a chocolate custard w/ peanut butter & brownie concrete from Freddie's Steakburgers & Frozen Custard.  Haven't had a DQ blizzard in 25 years or so.  It was m&m back in the day though.

I don’t even really like Oreos that much, but the Oreo blizzard is the undisputed king.

Most of our summer lake trips wrap up with a Blizzard on the way back home. I think it’s the main reasons the kids want to go to the lake at this point. S’mores is alright along with any cookie dough combination they have at the time. My kids get an Oreo and an M&M like clockwork.

Prob b/c it sucked compared to the classics.

If you’re a smooth talker, they let you bring your own toppings.

Bunch of folks in here bucking to be Vic's next conquest.

Whoppers is also underrated.  It’s like a malt, but with the texture of the little pieces of malt balls.

Heath. 
 

I haven’t been to a DQ since probably 2001 or so, but see they have a snickerdoodle flavor now soooooo this weekend I’ll go. Some of the ones here don’t serve food, it’s weird.

I'll go off on a DQ employee if I get toward the bottom and there's nothing there but ice cream.

The only blizzard is an Oreo blizzard 

false. 

What I've learned is that you can apparently get 2 flavors in one blizzard.  I had never even thought of that.

Fourth vote here...

I love butterfinger and heath but they get stuck in my teeth something crazy.

My go to lately is a Reese’s blizzard with peanut butter added. Yummmm

Bob Wills may still be the king, but there’s no longer a dq in mexia.
