Krispy Kreme is ready for blueberry season.
The chain is launching a new doughnut in honor of “peak blueberry season” — the Original Glazed Blueberry Flavored Doughnut — for four days only, according to a press release shared with PEOPLE.
The new doughnut, which the chain wrote is “a berry delicious twist on the iconic Original Glazed that captures the sweetest moments of summer in every bite,” will be offered from July 23 to July 26 in shops and on Krispy Kreme’s app and website.
The doughnuts feature blueberry-flavored dough in the form of the “melt-in-your-mouth Original Glazed doughnut” for a “vibrant, fruity twist on a fan favorite,” the release said.
According to the brand’s website, the special doughnut is topped with the Original Glaze.
“It’s the perfect way to celebrate the sweetest stretch of National Blueberry Month before the season slips away,” the release said.
The new flavor also comes with a deal to celebrate the season.
Customers can get a dozen Original Glazed Blueberry Flavored Doughnuts for $5 with the purchase at regular price of any other dozen or 16-count Minis at participating U.S. and Canadian stores.
Online orderers can score the deal with the promo code BLUEBERRY. The deal is limited to two per person in-store, and to one order online.
The doughnut brand recently partnered with Girl Scout Cookies for a limited-edition collection inspired by three of the iconic cookies, per a press release.
The chain recreated Thin Mints with a chocolate iced Original Glazed doughnut topped with cookie crumbles and chocolate chips, along with a mint-green drizzle.
The Coconut Caramel doughnut inspired by Caramel DeLites (or Samoas) featured an Original Glazed doughnut topped with chocolate icing, along with coconut and caramel.
Krispy Kreme also reimagined Lemon-Ups, filling an unglazed shell doughnut with Lemon Crisp Kreme filling. The doughnuts were topped with lemon-flavored icing and a citrus-inspired design.
The fun collection was sold at Krispy Kreme locations, and a six-pack with three Thin Mint-inspired doughnuts and three Original Glazed ones was sold at select retailers.
The brand also recently celebrated its 89th anniversary on Friday, July 17.
It commemorated the day with a fitting deal of a dozen Original Glazed doughnuts for just 89 cents with the purchase of a dozen of the Original Glazed at regular price.
The company said in a statement that “every Krispy Kreme birthday is really a celebration of our fans.”
“While Krispy Kreme has continued to innovate and bring new experiences to fans around the world, it has never lost sight of what made it famous: the joy of sharing a warm, melt-in-your-mouth Original Glazed doughnut – especially when the iconic Hot Light is on,” the company added.
