McDonald’s is making a huge splash this year by adding a brand new line of refreshers and crafted sodas to their menu. Since they closed down the CosMc’s locations they are bringing those fun drink ideas straight to regular stores. Here is what you need to know about these new drinks.
The Dirty Dr Pepper Surprise
I was honestly a little skeptical about adding extra flavors to a classic soda but the Dirty Dr Pepper actually tastes really interesting. It has this sweet and creamy kick that some people will absolutely love even if others find it a bit too rich for an everyday drink.
Sipping The Mango Pineapple Refresher
This drink feels like a summer vacation in a cup because the fruity flavors blend perfectly together without being overly sugary. It is super light and refreshing which makes it a great choice when you want something besides a heavy soda with your burger.
The Toasted Vanilla Frappe Experience
Coffee fans who like sweet treats are going to appreciate how smooth and icy this blended beverage is on a hot afternoon. The toasted vanilla flavor is pretty strong so you have to really enjoy sweet coffee to finish the whole cup without feeling completely full.
Trying The Strawberry Watermelon Refresher
Mixing strawberry and watermelon is usually a winning combination and McDonald’s did a nice job making this taste like real fruit instead of candy. It is a very polite and balanced drink that does not overpower your taste buds while you eat your salty fries.
Tasting The Sprite Lunar Splash
I love a good Sprite remix and this one adds a fun twist to the lemon lime classic we all know and drink all the time. It brings a cool and tangy burst of flavor that might surprise you if you are just expecting regular soda from the fountain.
The Popping Tropic Refresher Vibe
This one really stands out because it has that fun tropical punch feeling that makes you want to sit outside by a pool. I think younger folks will go crazy for it while older crowds might just find it fun to try once in a while when they want a change.
Enjoying The Creamy Vanilla Cold Brew
You can never really go wrong with a classic cold brew and the vanilla cream makes it super smooth going down. It gives you that nice caffeine boost you need in the morning without being overly bitter like some straight black coffees can be.
Waiting For The New Energy Drinks
They are planning to drop actual energy drinks later in the year and I am so curious to see how those turn out for a fast food spot. Bringing energy drinks to a drive thru menu is a huge move and I know a lot of tired drivers will be thankful to have the option.
Why This Big Drink Menu Works
Since the CosMc’s spin off closed down it makes perfect sense to bring all these wild and fun drinks to the main restaurants so nobody misses out. It gives everyone a chance to grab a fancy cafe style drink right at the window without paying a crazy premium price.
