Popeyes & Don Julio Team Up For Limited Edition Championship Lineup Menu

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen and Tequila Don Julio are two of our favorite things. So naturally, when we heard that these two powerhouses had collaborated on a special menu to celebrate The Big Game in New Orleans, we were pretty excited to learn more!

Popeyes and Tequila Don Julio are serving up a one-of-a-kind culinary mashup leading up to this year’s Big Game in New Orleans (home of Popeyes) with the release of their Popeyes x Tequila Don Julio Championship Lineup menu.

Available for a limited time only in six select restaurants, the menu combines the rich heritage of Popeyes’ Louisiana-style cooking with the bold flavors of Tequila Don Julio Reposado – a tribute to craftsmanship and iconic celebrations.

Headlining the exclusive menu is the new Popeyes x Tequila Don Julio Reposado Flavored Concha Chicken Sandwich, a chicken breast fillet marinated in reposado tequila then fried in Popeyes crunchy buttermilk breading, topped with a tequila lime slaw, spicy spread, a barrel cured pickle, and sandwiched between a sweet and buttery concha roll – a beloved Mexican pastry. The sandwich is a fusion of flavors between the savory crunch of Popeyes chicken, the sweetness of the concha roll and the subtle kick of reposado tequila’s signature agave notes.

Additional items featured on the menu include Popeyes x Tequila Don Julio Reposado Flavored Louisiana Garlic 3-Piece Wings with a specialty sauce and a Spicy Strawberry Hibiscus Flavored Lemonade Mocktail.

Now here’s the rub – The Popeyes x Tequila Don Julio Championship Lineup menu is only available for one-day-only on January 31st, at select Popeyes restaurants in New York City, Miami, New Orleans, along with Philadelphia and Kansas City (the hometowns of the teams headed to The Big Game).

Customers 21+ will get to try the collaboration, rooted in the vibrant cultures of Louisiana and Mexico, before it heads back to New Orleans for the Big Game weekend (Jan 31-Feb 9).

Here’s a list of participating restaurants:

• New York:
  • Times Square –1530 Broadway, New York, NY 10036
  • Madison Square Park – 14 East 23rd Street, New York, NY 10010
• Miami:
  • 6800 Red Rd, South Miami, FL 33143
• New Orleans:
  • 621 Canal Street, New Orleans, LA 70130
• Philadelphia
  • 1428 Old York Rd Abington, PA 19001
• Kansas City:
  • 9460 Quivira Rd Lenexa, Kansas 66215

As a Philly native, I’m not sure why they chose the Abington location, as it’s about an hour outside of the city, while there are locations right in downtown Philadelphia. But such is life.
