Flagged conflict. The at-a-glance line says Rewardz members can try Honey Chipotle Sauce a week early starting October 26, and that both items are nationwide November 2. The legal footnote limits October 26 through November 2 to the sauce on digital channels. This page does not give the shake that head start.

No test market is named. Do not invent a city.

What's included

Honey Chipotle Sauce

The sauce is for Chicken Fingerz and Wings. The release says it is made with honey, brown sugar, red chili, and chipotle peppers.

Zax Rewardz members could order it starting October 26. That early window is digital only: the Zaxby's app, zaxbys.com, and third-party delivery, through November 2, at participating restaurants, while it is available.

Peppermint Cookies & Cream Shake

The shake is a hand-spun peppermint-flavored milkshake, mixed with cookies-and-cream pieces and topped with more of those pieces. The early-access footnote in the release names the sauce, not the shake.

How to order

  • Both items are on menus nationwide from November 2 through January 18, 2027.
  • The sauce's Rewardz head start is October 26 through November 2, and only through the app, the website, or third-party delivery.
  • Patrick Schwing, chief marketing officer, is quoted in the release. The dateline is Atlanta.
  • Holiday packaging on Zax Packz is mentioned. No price for the packaging was printed.

Drive Thru Index, data as of October 26, 2026, counted 1,024 Zaxby's restaurants. A Dry Rub Chicken Finger Plate was typically $12.19, from $10.39 to $14.99. That plate is a different item. It is not the price of the new sauce or the shake. The hub keeps the plate so the new rows are not mistaken for it.

Calories

The nutrition guide on zaxbys.com says it was revised in July 2025. Honey Chipotle Sauce and the peppermint shake are not rows in that file. This page does not borrow calories from an older sauce. The calorie cells stay blank. A blank cell is not zero.

The guide also says items are prepared on shared equipment with milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy, and sesame. That is a facility line for the menu, not an ingredient list for these two new items, so the allergen block stays off this page.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • The dates, the sauce ingredients, and the shake build come from the company release.
  • The early-access rule is specific: sauce, Rewardz, digital, October 26 through November 2.

Cons

  • Prices vary by location.
  • No calorie count was published for either new item.
  • The shake does not get the October 26 head start in the footnote.

How it compares

  • Chick-fil-A Spicy Chicken Sandwich

    The Chick-fil-A spicy chicken sandwich was typically $5.65 on October 24, 2026. That median is a sandwich, not a Zaxby's sauce price.

  • Popeyes Chicken Sandwich

    The Popeyes chicken sandwich was typically $5.79 on October 24, 2026. Zaxby's did not publish a dollar for Honey Chipotle Sauce or the peppermint shake.

Is it worth it?

Use this page for the holiday sauce and shake. Rewardz members get the sauce early, starting October 26.

  • Both items are nationwide November 2 through January 18, 2027.
  • Prices vary by location.

When can Rewardz members order it?

Honey Chipotle Sauce starts October 26, 2026, for Zax Rewardz members, only on the app, zaxbys.com, or third-party delivery, through November 2. The shake's early access is not in that footnote.

November 2 through January 18, 2027, at Zaxby's nationwide. That window covers the sauce and the Peppermint Cookies & Cream Shake.

What is in the peppermint shake?

The release calls it a hand-spun peppermint-flavored milkshake mixed with cookies-and-cream pieces and topped with more of those pieces. No size or calorie count was printed.

Did Zaxby's publish calories?

No. The nutrition guide revised in July 2025 does not list these two items. The calorie cells are blank on purpose.
