Dairy Queen has opened a set of its newest, most exciting treat concept, DQ Orange Julius, in Honolulu, Hawaii, and Daytona Beach, Florida.

The destinations offer Dairy Queen soft-serve treats, as well as Orange Julius products, including an array of fruit beverages and smoothies.

In addition, Dairy Queen signature Iron Grilled Sandwiches and hot dogs will be served. In Honolulu, the 700-square-foot restaurant employs a staff of 10, and in Dayton Beach, the 856-sqaure-foot store employs a staff of 15.

“I am thrilled to have the DQ Orange Julius store in Honolulu open and ready to serve our customers,” says operator Linda Kung. “The Dairy Queen system is the worldwide treat leader and we’ve paired an innovative, exciting design with a fabulous selection of cravable treats, including all of the Dairy Queen and Orange Julius favorites, as well as enticing new menu items. Our customers will love what we’ve brought to Honolulu.”

Both stores feature DQ favorites, such as the iconic Blizzard Treats, MooLatté frozen coffee-flavored beverages, and a wide variety of other soft-serve items, as well as the full line of Orange Julius premium fruit smoothies and fruit-blended beverages. 

“We are looking to provide the Daytona Beach Shores community with a great treat location, from that morning smoothie to the after-the-movie Blizzard Treat,” says owner and operator John Metz.
