McDonald’s is the best at breaking the internet. Social media went completely purple last year when Grimace the Taste Bud returned with the vivid violet Grimace shake to celebrate his birthday. No news gets us clicking more quickly than McDonald’s, whether it’s launching a new sandwich, a new meal, or something as basic as a modification to its burgers. Let us now share some McDonald’s news with you.

We don’t think we’re exaggerating when we claim that Mickey D’s is launching a brand-new, first-of-its-kind McFlurry stateside right after revealing the Grimace Shake is returning, but this time in the UK.

McDonald’s Introduces New Grandma McFlurry

Grandmas are popular here if you know anything about Allrecipes. In our opinion, grandmothers are infallible regarding their recipes, culinary techniques, and the delicacies they always have. And McDonald’s seems to feel the same way.

McDonald’s returned to the source of all comfort food—grandma’s house—instead of drawing inspiration for its newest menu item from pop culture or popular flavor traits.

“Grandmas have always held a special place in our hearts, and today they’re having a major moment influencing culture—inspiring trends in fashion, decor, and now, even food with our newest McFlurry,” said Tariq Hassan, Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer at McDonald’s.

What is the flavor of the new Grandma McFlurry? It combines McDonald’s vanilla soft serve with chopped, crunchy candy pieces (similar to the candies Granny used to conceal in her purse) and a syrup that resembles butterscotch. It tastes like a delightful stroll down memory lane, to put it simply.

According to a press release, an actual grandmother who works in McDonald’s culinary department created the new Grandma McFlurry. “She was relentless in perfecting a deliciously crave-able treat meant to evoke special memories with grandma or the grandma figure in your life, drawing from her own experiences,” said Marcelo Fajnerman, VP of Menu Strategy at McDonald’s.

Sold on this nostalgic treat? The Grandma McFlurry officially hits restaurants on May 21, but if you’re in New York, you can try it first—and for free. On May 17 and May 18, Grandma’s McFlurry Mobile will drive around New York City to dole out free first tastes of the new treat. And if that weren’t sweet enough, it would even be making stops at senior centers and assisted living homes in the city to deliver the treat to some real-life grandparents.
