Jack In the Box Is Coming for McDonald’s With Its Latest Menu Addition
And adding two new drinks.

I’m about to say something controversial: I am not a fan of mint-flavored anything. Despite tasting multiple mint-flavored holiday shakes for our taste test, it’s just never been something I gravitate towards. But, I respect the admiration for these flavors—and no mint-flavored shake has as many fans as McDonald’s Shamrock Shake.
Due to the shake’s seasonal, limited-time run, customers swarm the drive-thru year after year to get their hands on a Shamrock Shake. But Jack in the Box just brought back a shake that rivals the OG—and it looks good enough to convert a mint hater like me.
Jack In the Box Releases the Lucky Mint Trio
To get us in the spirit for St. Patrick’s Day, Jack in the Box has brought back its fan-favorite Oreo Mint Shake. Similar to McDonald’s Oreo Shamrock McFlurry, Jack in the Box’s features a mint shake base blended with Oreo cookie crumbs, topped with whipped cream topping and even more Oreo cookie crumbs. While the shake is not new, this year’s minty lineup sees Jack in the Box bring two brand-new drinks to the menu alongside the Oreo Mint Shake: the Oreo Mint Mocha Sweet Cream Iced Coffee and Mint Twisted Soda.
The first of the new drinks in the Lucky Mint Trio is the Oreo Mint Mocha Sweet Cream Iced Coffee, which features a blend of Jack’s favorite coffee brand, High Mountain Arabica, swirled with vanilla cream and topped off with a whipped topping and Oreo cookie crumbs. The second is the Mint Twisted Soda, a refreshing drink made with a blend of Sprite, mint flavors, and sweet cream, finished with a whipped cream swirl and cherry on top.
“Ugh I live for the Mint Oreo Shake,” one fan commented on Instagram user @Snackolator’s post sharing the drinks. “My all-time fave.”
All three drinks in the Lucky Mint Trio are available now through April 7, or while supplies last. And if these drinks are anything like the Shamrock Shake, they’re sure to draw a crowd, so hit the drive-thru while you can.
