SAN DIEGO – Grown exclusively on the lush, volcanic mountain slopes of
The Big Island in Hawaii, Kona coffee is considered one of the world's most
premium and sought-after cups of Joe. Now, thanks to Jack in the Box®
restaurants, Kona fans can enjoy this prized java in a whole new way -- say
aloha to Jack's new Kona Coffee Shake.
The new Kona Coffee Shake is a rich and creamy confection of real vanilla ice
cream blended with the flavor of Kona coffee topped with a dollop of whipped
topping and a maraschino cherry.
"Jack in the Box is known as an innovator when it comes to shakes, and our
new Kona Coffee version lives up to that tradition," said Teka O'Rourke,
director of menu marketing and promotions at Jack in the Box Inc. "It has a
sophisticated flavor that will appeal to shake and coffee fans alike."
Jack's new Kona Coffee Shake is available in 16- and 24-ounce servings for
the suggested prices, excluding tax, of $2.49 and $2.99, respectively, at all
participating Jack in the Box restaurants.
