But last year, DQ finally brought back the Mint Oreo Blizzard Treat\u2014and now it&#8217;s returning once again. Dairy Queen seems to know how just beloved this flavor combo is because this year the Mint Oreo Blizzard Treat is DQ&#8217;s March Blizzard of the Month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">DQ is also introducing a brand-new minty creation: the Mint Crunchin\u2019 Cookie Dipped Cone. It&#8217;s a St. Patrick&#8217;s twist on the viral Crunchin&#8217; Cookie Dipped Cone and features Dairy Queen&#8217;s signature soft serve dipped in a green mint-flavored cone coating with chocolate cookie crumbles. And this new cone will be available starting Feb. 23.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">McDonald\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allrecipes.com\/mcdonalds-shamrock-shake-return-11905792\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Shamrock Shake and Oreo Shamrock McFlurry;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Shamrock Shake and Oreo Shamrock McFlurry<\/a> have already hit menus nationwide.
