7-Eleven is turning one of its Jersey Shore stores into a destination for a chill meet-up.

As part of its annual birthday celebration (July 11), the Texas-based convenience store chain is inviting couples to ditch over-planned dates for a fun, low pressure “Slurpee Date.”

The experience will include a photo-op bench outside the store, an onsite photographer and commemorative keepsakes. Attendees can also pick up a limited-edition bedazzled Slurpee double straw to share their drink with someone special, according to 7-Eleven.

Within New Jersey, the chain will have the pop-up at its Seaside Park location (1215 NW Central Ave.). Slurpee Dates will also be available at a handful of stores in California, Ohio and Texas, according to 7-Eleven.

Besides being 7-Eleven’s 99th birthday, July 11 also marks the 60th anniversary of the chain’s iconic Slurpee frozen drinks. 7-Eleven will continue its yearly tradition of offering customers a free small Slurpee at participating locations nationwide from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

This year’s celebration will include the introduction of a brand-new flavor for the anniversary (Mountain Dew Confetti Chill). 7-Eleven said the limited-time offering combines bright citrus notes with sweet vanilla icing for a “zesty lemon cake treat in frozen drink form.”

The company operates more than 13,000 locations across North America. Within New Jersey, it has more than 350 stores.

A Slurpee for every season

7-Eleven Senior Vice President of Fresh Foods and Beverages Brandon Brown said, “Very few brands become part of people’s childhoods, everyday routines and memories across generations like Slurpee has over the last 60 years. From first Slurpee drinks to family traditions, Slurpee has been there for countless moments of joy and connection.”

“As we celebrate this milestone Slurpee Day and create new ways for fans to connect, we want to recognize the customers who have turned a simple icy drink into a beloved cultural icon,” he said.

The company has also partnered with “Love Island” star and content creator JaNa Craig to promote the Slurpee Date experience.

“I immediately loved this idea because it turns something that so many people already know and love – grabbing a Slurpee – into a cute, playful summer date,” Craig shared. “There’s something nostalgic about hanging out with friends over a Slurpee drink, so bringing that same easygoing energy to a first date felt like the perfect fit.

“It’s familiar and way less intimidating than some super serious first date.”
