Farrell's often served up seasonal and holiday ice cream items. Here are a few of the ones I remember.

Happy Orange - Orange-flavored Ice Cream Soda with Vanilla Ice Cream and an Orange Slice. Very popular summer beverage.

Pina Colada Shake - Pineapple and Coconut (no rum, sorry).

Crisp Kringle - Butterscotch sundae with Butter Pecan Ice cream, spanish peanuts and almonds. Offered for a couple of years in the late 1970's during X-mas season.

Minty Marvel - Peppermint and Chocolate Chip Mint ice cream topped with Hot Fudge and Marshmallow topping. This one was popular enough to make it onto the standard menu for a whole year.

Spring Chicken - Scoops of orange, raspberry and lime sherbet with one of those disgusting marshmallow chickens on top. An easter treat...

Tummy Warmers - the wintertime sequel to the Big Swig, these consisted of a choice of hot beverages (flavored coffees, hot chocolate, hot apple cider, hot egg nog) with a scoop of ice cream on top and you keep the mug. Only offered in winter of 1982-83. 

Grasshopper pie - slice of chocolate chip mint ice cream pie (in a chocolate pie shell), topped with hot fudge.

Santa Claus Sundae - Single scoop sundae with whipped cream beard and cherry nose.

Black cat - hot fudge sundae with chocolate ice cream, served in tall glass. Whipped cream head, shoestring licorice for whiskers, candy corn eyes, cherry nose, banana ears.

The Witch - single scoop sundae with chocolate topping, sugar cone for witches hat, peanut eyes.
