Smash or Pass? Blue Diamond Drops Cherry Slurpee-Flavored Almonds

Blue Diamond Almonds is back with another flavor twist. This time, they’re linking up with none other than 7-Eleven to launch a sweet summer exclusive: Cherry Slurpee® Almonds.

Yep, you read that right. The same refreshing cherry flavor that’s defined countless summers is now getting the almond treatment. Imagine the bold cherry flavor of a Slurpee with the crunch and protein punch of Blue Diamond’s signature almonds. That’s the kind of snack crossover we didn’t know we needed until now.

Each 1.5-ounce snack tube packs 7 grams of protein and antioxidant vitamin E, making it the ultimate on-the-go bite for beach days, road trips, or just surviving the summer heat in style. The Cherry Slurpee Almonds are available now for a limited time at participating 7-Eleven®, Speedway®, and Stripes® locations nationwide, starting at $1.79.

“Cherry is an iconic summer flavor, so it immediately came to our attention when ideating,” said Maya Erwin, VP of Marketing & Innovation at Blue Diamond. “Bringing this flavor to our protein-packed almonds makes it the perfect snack for the warmer months.”

The launch follows Blue Diamond’s earlier flavor drop with Mike’s Hot Honey—proving they’re locked in on innovation and serving flavor lovers bold, unexpected combos all year long.

And if you’re lucky, you might even catch the brand’s 20-foot almond-shaped Nutty Cruiser rolling through your city, giving fans a taste of the summer’s hottest snack. For tour stops and details, hit up bluediamond.com/nutty-cruiser.

“At 7-Eleven, we’re always looking for new ways to bring fun, unexpected flavor experiences to our customers,” said Randy Quinn, SVP of Merchandising at 7-Eleven. “Cherry has long been one of our most beloved Slurpee drink flavors, and seeing it reimagined in almond form extends that nostalgia in a whole new way.”
