Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Taco Bell and Tajín Release Their Collaborative Menu

— August 12, 2026 — Marketing
Taco Bell has introduced a limited-time menu lineup in collaboration with Tajín, featuring three new items that incorporate the brand's signature chile lime seasoning. This venture is supported by a partnership with Mexican singer Peso Pluma, who has helped promote the launch.

The Tajín Taco features a crunchy shell seasoned with the spice blend and filled with seasoned beef, Spicy Ranch sauce, lettuce, shredded cheese, and mango salsa, while the Tajín Cheesy Gordita Crunch wraps a Tajín-seasoned crunchy taco within a warm flatbread layered with mozzarella, pepper jack, and cheddar cheeses. Both chile lime-inspired dishes come with a packet of Tajín Clásico Seasoning. The Tajín Pineapple Strawberry Freeze, on the other hand, combines pineapple and strawberry flavors with the seasoning for a sweet, tangy, and slightly spicy frozen beverage.

In addition to the QSR menu, 400 limited-edition bag charm sets featuring a miniature Tajín bottle in a beaded holder, a mini Taco Bell bag, and a Peso Pluma heart charm will be available exclusively through the Taco Bell app's Tuesday Drops promotion on August 18.
