Starting today, energy drink fans can head over to KrystalBlitz.com to receive a coupon for a free 20-ounce Krystal Blitz Energy Drink. All you have to do is click on the button that says “Let’s Blitz” to print your free Blitz coupon. And with one more click of the mouse, you can share the free drink with friends via Facebook, Twitter and more.

The interactive site will also showcase a fun and irreverent series of videos featuring animated, pencil-sketch cartoon vignettes that call out typical energy drinks as both flat and poor tasting while highlighting the great, refreshing taste of an icy cold Krystal Blitz.

Served either “On the Rocks” or “Frozen,” the Krystal Blitz kicks canned energy drinks where it counts: in both taste and energy. So, there are no medicinal-like flavorings or bad after-tastes, just 100% great-tasting, natural ingredients that pack a powerful punch of energy that rivals even the most well-known energy drinks in the industry.

So, join us in our “Kick the Can” celebration and grab a delicious Lemon-Berry Krystal Blitz for free today. The drink is now available in all Krystal restaurants systemwide. Visit KrystalBlitz.com to find a location near you.

Remember to check in with Krystal all week long on the following social media sites for more Free Blitz Offers: Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube.

What is served icy cold “On the Rocks” and “Frozen,” contains 20 ounces of pure energy, comes in a great-tasting Lemon Berry flavor and is free for a week starting Monday? Give up? Somehow missed the headline above? It’s Krystal’s new branded energy drink, The Krystal Blitz!

Yes, Krystal is rolling out a free online offer for The Krystal Blitz this August 10 through August 17, and you’ll have to be quick with your mouse and follow along on Krystal’s Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube pages to get in on the action.

Here’s how it works:

• Krystal will “Blitz” its various social media pages throughout the week with specific web addresses that contain the required coupon.  But you better move fast because each web page will remain live only temporarily until the next unique web address is posted.
• Guests will also be able to spread some “Krystal Karma” to their friends by sharing the coupon’s web page directly with their friends on Facebook and Twitter.
• Sources for clues to the web address of the most current offer will vary throughout the day and week, thus guests must be active on all of Krystal’s social media sites to receive the most opportunities for a free Blitz coupon.
• Each printable coupon will be valid for a free 20-ounce Krystal Blitz, served either “On The Rocks” or “Frozen” ($1.99 and $2.49, respectively), and can be used immediately that day and up through the end of the next day.

So that’s it. Be sure to follow Krystal on Facebook and Twitter for details throughout the week and get ready to start clicking away beginning August 10 for your free Krystal Blitz Energy Drink.

Krystal gave away over $2,500 of Krystal Cash in February, then amped things up in April with the $500-A-Week Giveaway, then again in May for National Hamburger Month with over $3,000 in prize giveaways and is now continuing its generosity all month long with another $100-A-Day Giveaway. Do you see a pattern here?

There have already been eight lucky winners this month, so don’t miss out on your chance to get in on the action. All you have to do is take the code from your receipt and enter it on Krystal.com.

Although the first official day of summer hasn’t yet arrived, anyone that lives in the South can tell you that the hot weather is definitely here. And what better way to cool you off than to enjoy one of the new Krystal Freezes?

Available now are two new refreshing flavors: Lemonade and Mango. Unlike some of Krystal’s past Freeze flavors, such as the Purple Fusion (which was a former favorite of ours) that had a complex blend of tastes, both the Lemonade and Mango Freezes are simple and classic.

The Lemonade flavor is reminiscent of the old-fashioned iced lemonade that your mom used to make and serve during the hot summer months. Krystal’s Lemonade Freeze has that same crisp, clean and refreshing taste. The Mango Freeze is equally as good, with a natural mango fruit flavor that’s not too sweet or artificial. This, of course, is thanks to the fact that it’s made with premium syrups containing pure cane sugar, just like all of Krystal’s Freeze flavors. And don’t forget, the following Krystal Freeze Flavors are available year round: Green Apple, Banana, Strawberry, Cherry, Coke, Grape and Blueberry. All this talk has got us thirsty. It might be time for a midday intern snack run. Oh Rachel…

The Krystal Giveaway Show is just days away, and we’re giving you the low down on the entire event, so you can be sure to tune in and win! Check it out…

This live, streaming online video event is taking place on Wednesday, May 27 from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST. Before we continue, stop and click here to RSVP now.

How it works:

The Krystal Team will be broadcasting live from the Krystal “3D” (Drive-In, Dine-In, Drive-Thru) restaurant in Chattanooga, where we will be asking the online audience (you) to answer trivia questions and complete challenges. There will be more than $1,500 in prizes, including $100 Krystal Gift Cards and loads of Krystal goodies.

Here’s what you need to know to participate:

1. Visit www.nationalhamburgermonth.com/viewer on May 27. Do not go there early or else you’ll get zapped by a 10,000 volt electrode. Okay, not really but there’s no reason to visit the page until the event begins at 10:00 a.m. EST on May 27. That’s this coming Wednesday.
2. Once there, click the “Play” arrow on the video to begin the broadcast. The live feed begins at 10:00 a.m. (you knew that already, didn’t you?) and will continue until 4:00 pm EST. You can come and go whenever you like.
3. Listen and watch for questions and challenges throughout the broadcast. If you cannot tune in, all questions and challenges will be asked in real time via Facebook, Twitter and by the official Krystal carrier pigeon*.
4. Be sure to listen for instructions on how to answer a particular question or complete a challenge. Some questions/challenges may require you to post a comment or photo on the Krystal Facebook wall. Others may require you to answer via Twitter. So you’re ready to go on the big day make sure you’re a fan of ours on Facebook AND following @Krystalist on Twitter. Go ahead and do so now. When? Now.
5. This is important so be sure to read what we are about to say. All answers via Twitter must  begin with @krystalist and must include #KrystalHD at the end of the answer. That last thing is called a hashtag but don’t ask us explain what that is. We’ll let these people do that for us.
6. Chat all you want in the chat box below the video. That’s a fun way to interact with other people and whoever is on camera. Just don’t answer questions there. That you’ll do either on Facebook or Twitter.
7. All righty, that’s it! Have any questions just go ahead and ask us on our Facebook wall or via Twitter.

Now, tell all your friends and have them join you in a little friendly competition. You might just walk away with some cold, hard Krystal Cash. You won’t want to miss a minute of the action! For more information, please click here.

* Not really.
