KFC Kwench Drinks UK: Prices and Flavours (2026)

Kwench is KFC UK’s new made-to-order drinks range: 13 drinks starting from £2.89, covering milkshakes, iced coffees, matcha, boba refreshers and sparkling lemonades.

It has rolled out to all 58 Scottish restaurants, backed by a £38m investment in dedicated Kwench counters. It is not yet available across the whole UK, so this is the range to watch for if you live outside Scotland.

KFC Kwench Drinks UK: The Short Answer

For anyone in a hurry, here is the KFC Kwench Drinks UK picture in five lines:

  • Kwench is KFC UK’s first made-to-order drinks range: 13 drinks in five styles.
  • Prices on this site’s menu run from £2.89 to £4.29.
  • The five styles are milkshakes, iced coffees, matcha, boba refreshers and sparkling lemonades.
  • It is currently available in all 58 Scottish KFC restaurants only.
  • There is no confirmed date for the rest of the UK, but a £38m investment in Kwench counters suggests a wider rollout is planned.

Everything below goes through the full price list, explains where the range has launched, and picks out which drinks are worth trying first, with prices taken from our full KFC menu with prices.

What are Kwench drinks?

Kwench is KFC’s first proper drinks range in the UK: 13 made-to-order drinks built around five styles.

  • Milkshakes
  • Iced coffees
  • Matcha
  • Boba refreshers
  • Sparkling lemonades

Until now, drinks at KFC meant the fountain: Pepsi MAX, Tango and 7Up Free, poured to go with a meal. Kwench is the first time the chain has sold drinks as a reason to visit in themselves.

The milkshakes are sold under the Krunch name and built thick, more like a dessert than a drink. The iced coffees are the biggest group, and the boba refreshers come with the chewy pearls bubble tea shops made popular.

Five styles also means the range covers most tastes in one short list. There is a coffee for the morning, a shake for dessert, and a lemonade for anyone who just wants something cold and sharp.

The made-to-order part matters more than it might sound. A fountain drink is the same in every branch, because a machine pours it.

A Kwench drink is built by a person, at a dedicated Kwench counter, with the ice, flavourings and toppings added as you order. Because of that, expect a slightly longer wait than a fountain pour.

The range sits alongside the other KFC new menu items KFC has been rolling out this year, but drinks are the part of the menu it had never really built a range around before.

The Scottish launch included a limited-edition Millionaire Shake. The range is part of a £38m investment in dedicated Kwench counters inside restaurants, which tells you KFC is serious about it.

Limited editions at KFC tend to be exactly that, so if you are in Scotland and fancy the Millionaire Shake, do not leave it too long. Its coffee cousin, the Millionaire’s Iced Koffee Krunch, is on the regular price list below.

How much do Kwench drinks cost?

On the menu listed on this site, Kwench drinks run from £2.89 to £4.29. The full per-drink list is in the table below, so you can plan around the exact price of the drink you actually want.

Here is every Kwench drink on the menu, with its price:

DrinkPrice
Caramel Krunch Shake£3.99
Chocolate Krunch Shake£3.99
Strawberry Shortcake Krunch Shake£3.99
Iced Latte£2.99
Iced Vanilla Latte£3.29
Iced Caramel Latte£3.49
Iced Tiramisu Latte£3.79
Iced Mocha Koffee Krunch£3.29
Millionaire’s Iced Koffee Krunch£4.29
Matcha Latte£3.49
Iced Matcha Latte£3.49
Strawberry Boba Refresher£2.89
Cherry Poppin’ Refresher£2.89
Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade£2.89
Sparkling Mango Lemonade£2.89

The whole range spans just £1.40 from cheapest to most expensive, which is tight for a drinks menu. There are no surprise prices hiding at the top end.

The three Krunch shakes all cost £3.99, which keeps the choice simple: pick your flavour, and the price is the same. At that price they compete with the dessert menu rather than the drinks menu.

Their calorie counts back that up. Each shake carries between 481 and 490 kcal, roughly the calories of a side order and a half, so think of them as a pudding in a cup.

The iced coffees are where the range gets interesting. The plain Iced Latte at £2.99 undercuts most coffee chains by a fair margin, and the prices climb in small steps as the flavours get fancier.

The Iced Latte is also the lightest drink in the range at 102 kcal. Our KFC calories guide has the full nutrition picture if you want the totals before you order.

Matcha drinkers get two options, a hot Matcha Latte and an Iced Matcha Latte, both at £3.49. The Mocha and Millionaire’s Koffee Krunch drinks blur the line between the coffees and the shakes.

The best value sits at the bottom of the table. All four refreshers and lemonades cost £2.89, exactly what a regular Pepsi MAX costs on the same menu, so swapping your usual fizzy drink costs you nothing extra.

Meals on the main menu come with a regular drink included, so treat a Kwench drink as an extra on top rather than a swap, unless your branch says otherwise at the counter.

It is also worth remembering what a drink does to the cost of a cheap lunch. Our guide to KFC lunch deals works through how a £2.89 drink changes the maths on the Savers range.

Where can you get Kwench drinks?

Right now: Scotland only. The range has rolled out to all 58 Scottish KFC restaurants. If you are in England, Wales or Northern Ireland, Kwench has not reached you yet, and there is no confirmed date for a wider rollout.

All 58 Scottish restaurants having the range matters, because it means there is no patchy trial stage left in Scotland. Any Scottish branch you walk into should be able to make the full list.

That said, the signs point in one direction. A £38m investment in dedicated counters is a lot of money to spend on 58 restaurants, and counters only pay for themselves if the range spreads.

The sensible reading is that Scotland is the test market. If the numbers hold up there, a launch across the rest of the UK is the obvious next step.

One more place to watch: the festive Gravymas range launching 9 November 2026 includes a Fully Festive Meal at £13.49 that comes with a Kwench shake, which suggests Kwench is being woven into the main menu over time.

You can see that meal listed on the KFC Christmas menu page. Putting a Kwench shake inside a headline festive meal is a fair sign KFC sees the range as part of the main menu’s future.

Should you expect Kwench at your local KFC?

If you are in Scotland, yes, check your local restaurant. Everywhere else, it is a waiting game.

Given the £38m counter investment, a wider rollout looks likely, but KFC has not confirmed dates, so treat any claim of a UK-wide launch with caution until it is official.

The practical move is to check before you travel. If your branch has a Kwench counter, the range shows on its menu in the app, so a quick look saves a wasted trip.

Until your branch gets a counter, the regular drinks menu still stands: Pepsi MAX, Tango and 7Up Free at £2.89 for a regular. Kwench is an addition to that menu, not a replacement for it.

Which Kwench drink should you try first?

Start with the refreshers and lemonades. At £2.89 they cost the same as the Pepsi MAX you were probably going to order anyway, so trying one is a free experiment.

The Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade is the safe pick if you like your drinks sharp. The boba refreshers are the fun option if you have never tried the pearls before.

The iced coffees are the pick if you want something that feels like a coffee shop drink without coffee shop prices. Start with the plain Iced Latte, and step up to the flavoured versions if you like it.

Matcha is the wildcard. At £3.49, hot or iced, it is the drink for anyone who finds the rest of the range too sweet, and it is unlike anything else KFC sells.

Treat the Krunch shakes as dessert, because that is what they are. At £3.99 each, a shake works as your pudding, but it is a heavy extra on top of a full meal.

And if you want the full Kwench experience once, the Millionaire’s Iced Koffee Krunch at £4.29 is the treat order: the priciest drink on the menu, and the one built to show off the counter.
