As the spicy chicken sandwich trend continues, Shake Shack has created a hot and sweet new sandwich along with some cocktail-inspired drinks for summer.

Shake Shack culinary director, Mark Rosati told "Good Morning America" the new menu is "the epitome of a fun-loving summertime indulgence."

"The flavors and textures of our Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich, the star of the menu, are sweet, spicy, sticky, crispy and perfectly balanced between the honey glaze and habanero mayo sauce," he said. "Combined with our cocktail-inspired summerades and new summer shakes, summertime never tasted so good."
