McDonald’s Australia has revealed its highly anticipated summer menu shakeup – with new burgers and a slew of tropical sweet treats.
Several pineapple-themed items are hitting Aussie stores this week, a summer fruit thousands have dubbed ‘the most controversial of all time’.
‘Never-before-seen’ snacks include three tangy burgers which are sure to drum up a heated debate among foodies.
The Hawaiian BBQ Deluxe boasts 100 per cent Aussie beef patty topped with a juicy pineapple ring along with bacon, fresh vegetables, Jack cheese, and smoky BBQ sauce.
The Hawaiian McCrispy and Hawaiian McSpicy burgers feature juicy Aussie chicken with McDonald’s signature deliciousness.
For those who need a quick solution to beat the heat, they can purchase a popular returning favourite: a sundae covered in pineapple sauce and chunks – with the choice of the iconic vanilla or chocolate soft serve for the base.
A brand new dessert is a world-first collaboration between Australia’s top chocolate bar and Macca’s.
The Cadbury Cherry Ripe McFlurry features a creamy soft serve topped with dark chocolate flakes and drizzled in a rich cherry sauce.
A surprising new dessert is the limited edition Frozen Coke Oreo Zero Sugar – but the special treat is only available at certain participating locations.
The controversial flavour was dubbed a ‘must try’ at least once by foodies.
Another returning favourite on the summer menu are the cheesy jalapeno pops Aussies have been eagerly anticipating all year.
Amanda Nakad, Marketing Director for McDonald’s Australia, said: ‘Whether you’re a Cherry Ripe fan or love a little pineapple on your burger, we’re ready to serve up the tropical summertime vibes with our brand new summer menu, no matter the time of day.
‘If it’s a post-swim soft serve, cheeky late-night Hawaiian BBQ Deluxe or a road trip Drive-Thru, we’re here for it all and usually right around the corner.’
