## Story

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Haven Hot Chicken will add a little more zest to its menu this July with a series of seasonal offerings available at all locations throughout the month.

Leading the way is the Lime Cilantro Ranch Wrap Snack on July 13. The Key Lime Banana Pudding, Diet Coke with lime and Lime Shake Fries combo will follow on July 20, with Lime Pepper Tendies, Lime Shake Fries, house Lime Ranch for dipping and a Diet Coke with lime arriving July 27.

The Lime Cilantro Ranch Wrap Snack features one of Haven's signature tenders, split between warm tortillas and topped with house-made lime ranch and cilantro lime slaw in a snackable two-wrap format. For those looking to satisfy their sweet tooth, the Key Lime Banana Pudding layers key lime pudding, freshly sliced bananas, whipped topping and a key lime pie drizzle, giving a classic comfort-food dessert a tangy spin.

“Our guests aren't afraid to try bold flavors, so we wanted to have some fun with this lineup,” said Rob LaTronica, Haven Hot Chicken Founder and Culinary Lead. “From the first bite of the Wrap Snack to the last spoonful of Key Lime Banana Pudding, these flavors strike a balance between the unexpected and the familiar in a way that's unmistakably Haven.”

The Key Lime Banana Pudding also reflects Haven's ongoing commitment to giving back. For every dessert sold, the brand will donate the cost of a meal to Connecticut Foodshare and The Greater Boston Food Bank, helping provide meals to local families in need.
