McDonald’s Is Releasing A Limited Edition Milkshake In North Carolina
McDonald’s celebrates one of its iconic characters, Grimace, with a special birthday meal. Starting June 12 McDonald’s is releasing a limited edition milkshake in North Carolina. You’ll be able to order the ‘Grimace Birthday meal,’ which comes with the choice of a Big Mac or 10-piece Chicken McNuggets and fries and a limited-edition purple berry-vanilla shake inspired by Grimace’s color.
Now I am a chocolate milkshake guy so I don’t think this one is for me. But if the ice cream machine is working at your local McDonald’s this milkshake could be yours. Not sure why the ice cream machine always seems to be down. The good news is this shake will be in both North and South Carolina.
So not only is McDonald’s releasing a limited edition milkshake in North Carolina, but Spoon University says McDonald’s is also launching a special video game. You can immerse yourself in Grimace’s world as he races around classic McDonald’s birthday scenes to find his pals like Birdie and Hamburglar.
I’m sure if it is popular enough, Mcdonald’s would continue it. The Shamrock shake is the one shake that everyone goes crazy over, yet it is only offered for a limited time. You would think they would make it a permanent part of the menu.
