Autumn arrives at the treat counter before it arrives anywhere else. The Dairy Queen fall menu brings back the Pumpkin Pie Blizzard and adds two builds that were not there last year. Cold brew joins the lineup for the first time in this form.
Nothing on the list is a permanent item. Each build runs while the season does and leaves when the collection is pulled at the end of it. Pumpkin Pie is the returning fixture that most people wait for.
The short answer
The Dairy Queen fall menu arrives nationwide on 31 August 2026. Pumpkin Pie returns alongside the new Brown Sugar Cookie Dough Blizzard and the Toasted Marshmallow Mocha DQ Coffee Cooler. Caramel Apple Cheesecake opened the season as August’s Blizzard of the Month.

Dairy Queen Fall Menu
Two Blizzards and one coffee cooler make up the collection, which is a smaller lineup than the summer lineup carries. Real pumpkin pie pieces go into one. Brown sugar cookie dough goes into the other. The cooler takes a different route entirely, starting from cold brew rather than from soft serve alone.
Dairy Queen Fall Treat Collection
Pumpkin Pie returns unchanged this year. Whipped topping and nutmeg go over it, exactly as they have before. Brown Sugar Cookie Dough is new, folding dough pieces and brown sugar topping through the soft serve. The Toasted Marshmallow Mocha DQ Coffee Cooler finishes under cocoa fudge and whipped topping.
| Item | What goes in it | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Pumpkin Pie Blizzard | Real pumpkin pie pieces blended through soft serve, under whipped topping and nutmeg | Returning |
| Brown Sugar Cookie Dough Blizzard | Brown sugar cookie dough pieces and brown sugar topping blended through soft serve | New |
| Toasted Marshmallow Mocha DQ Coffee Cooler | Cold brew blended with soft serve and ice, finished with cocoa fudge and whipped topping | New |
| Caramel Apple Cheesecake Blizzard | Cheesecake pieces and caramel apple topping blended through soft serve | Blizzard of the Month |
Dairy Queen Blizzard of the Month
One flavour carries the month rather than the season, and it changes on a schedule. Caramel Apple Cheesecake took August, blending cheesecake pieces and caramel apple topping through soft serve. A rewards offer ran alongside it, giving a second Blizzard away at a token figure for anyone with a Dairy Queen account.
| Detail | What Dairy Queen announced |
|---|---|
| Flavour | Caramel Apple Cheesecake Blizzard |
| Blended in | Cheesecake pieces and caramel apple topping |
| Offer | A second Blizzard for 99 cents with a DQ Rewards account |
| Redemption | Once a day while the offer runs |
Dairy Queen Fall Menu Dates
Dates on the Dairy Queen fall menu split into two stages. The Blizzard of the Month ran first. Its own offer window opened and closed before the wider collection arrived. The collection itself follows at the end of the month. It holds through the autumn.
| Stage | Date |
|---|---|
| Double Flip offer opens | 3 August 2026 |
| Blizzard of the Month announced | 4 August 2026 |
| Double Flip offer closes | 30 August 2026 |
| Fall Treat Collection arrives nationwide | 31 August 2026 |
What a Fall Blizzard Costs
Dairy Queen has published no price and no calorie figure for any of the four seasonal treats. Blizzards otherwise price by cup size rather than by flavour, and the four sizes below carry the same figures across the year-round range. Seasonal flavours are ordered in those same cups, so the ladder is the closest guide until Dairy Queen publishes its own.
| Blizzard size | Standard price |
|---|---|
| Mini | $4.99 |
| Small | $5.89 |
| Medium | $6.99 |
| Large | $7.79 |
