Wendy’s Canada Brings Fresh Flavours to Menus Nationwide with New Strawberry Salad, Watermelon Lemonade and More

BURLINGTON, Ontario, May 14, 2026 // GLOBE NEWSWIRE // -- Wendy’s Canada is introducing fresh summer flavours with the Strawberry Salad and new beverages, including Watermelon Lemonade, for seasonal menu items.

Made with 100% Canadian white meat grilled chicken breast, the Strawberry Salad features a blend of ingredients including greenhouse-grown spring mix, hand-cut strawberries, fire-roasted corn, white cheddar and roasted pecans. Finished with a sweet onion vinaigrette, the salad provides a combination of sweet and savoury flavours. It uses protein and fresh seasonal ingredients.

At a time when salad offerings remain limited across much of the quick service restaurant industry, the lineup provides options for consumers seeking variety in salads.

To complement the salad, Wendy’s Canada is introducing Watermelon Lemonade, made by blending naturally flavoured lemonade with watermelon purée over ice for a refreshing seasonal sip.

Later this month, Wendy’s will also introduce two Refreshers – Peach and Tropical Strawberry. Made with sparkling water, topped with real dried strawberries and served over ice, these beverages are part of Wendy’s Canada beverage lineup.

“At Wendy’s, we know Canadians are looking for delicious options made with fresh, high-quality ingredients,” said John Mulvihill, Vice President and Managing Director of Wendy’s Canada. “With the introduction of the Strawberry Salad and the expansion of our beverage lineup, including Watermelon Lemonade and our new Refreshers, we’re offering more variety and delivering the bold flavours our fans expect.”

Wendy’s has used greenhouse-grown produce and introduced greenhouse-grown tomatoes in 2025; with the introduction of strawberries in the new salad, the brand is using more than 6,600 pounds of Ontario- and British Columbia-grown strawberries each week this summer.

Strawberry Salad and Watermelon Lemonade will be available at participating Wendy’s Canada locations beginning May 11, 2026, for a limited time. Wendy’s new Refreshers, available in both Peach and Tropical Strawberry flavours, will be available starting in June at participating Wendy’s Canada locations.
