Burger 21, a fast casual franchise, has launched the all-new Sweet Heat Chicken Burger and Watermelon Shake, available at all of its restaurants nationwide till 20 August.
As part of its unique culture, Burger 21 offers a different featured burger and shake on the 21st of every month. In addition, the brand donates 10 percent of its restaurants' sales to a local charity or school in the communities it serves on this day.
Created by Burger 21's Corporate Chef Mike Remes, the Sweet Heat Chicken Burger features a buttermilk-dipped crispy chicken burger topped with creamy avocado, sweet watermelon and a house-made sweet heat sauce.
The Watermelon Shake combines a refreshing blend of vanilla ice cream, watermelon puree and diced watermelon that's topped off with whipped cream and a watermelon slice.
Remes said: "At Burger 21, we pride ourselves on creating memorable experiences for our guests and have set ourselves apart by creating fun and flavorful burger and shake combinations that keep them coming back for more.
"We're excited for guests to enjoy the new Sweet Heat Chicken Burger and Watermelon Shake, and look forward to continue going above and beyond their expectations when it comes to menu variety."
To further celebrate this month's featured menu offerings, all Burger 21 loyalty app users who dine at their local Burger 21 restaurant on National Watermelon Day, Aug. 3, will receive a double-punch via Burger 21's "B Loyal" app.
