Chick-fil-A is one of the most popular fast-food places in the Carolinas. If you have never been there, it's a must. The line in the drive-thru should be a giveaway about how much people love their food. Get ready because a new chicken sandwich is coming your way.

Mover over pumpkin spice, Chick-Fil-A is about to add two items to its menu.  Starting August 28, you can stop by Chick-Fil-A and order a Caramel Crunch Milkshake and a Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich.

According to Chick-fil-A's website, this is the first time their team has attempted a new variation of its famous chicken sandwich.

Here's how they describe it. The Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich combines classic Chick-fil-A flavors with a sweet and subtly spicy kick. Featuring an original Chick-fil-A filet, topped with custom-made creamy pimento cheese, mild pickled jalapeños, and served on a warm, toasted bun drizzled with sweet honey.

Chick-fil-A Chef and creator behind the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich Stuart Tracy said, "We wanted to create a standout sandwich that would deliver a unique spin for our guests, without losing the classic taste of the Original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich. The Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich uses ingredients and flavors our guests have never experienced at Chick-fil-A before, balancing savory, sweet, and spicy elements using the highest quality ingredients."

There is also a new milkshake. Caramel Crumble Milkshake is the perfect addition to the seasonal menu. It's made with creamy butterscotch caramel flavors, hand-spun Chick-fil-A Icedream®, blondie crumbles, and topped with whipped cream and a cherry.

Sounds yummy.
