McDonald’s new Chocolately Pretzel McFlurry flavors are here
McDonald s MCD had sweetened its menu with a new McFlurry flavor just in time for the summer season.
The new Chocolately Pretzel McFlurry will be available at participating McDonald s restaurants nationwide starting on May 25 for a limited time.
Featuring vanilla soft serve mixed with chocolate-covered pretzel bits and topped with caramel swirl, the Chocolately Pretzel McFlurry is the perfect combination of salty and sweet, McDonald s said.
This is the first new McFlurry flavor from the burger chain this year, which McDonald s is likely to attract customers to its restaurants, especially as consumers become more budget conscious as inflation drives the price of most things higher.
McDonald s raised its food prices by 6% in 2021 due to the inflation surge, and in the first quarter, menu prices were 8% higher than they were a year ago.
The chain has fared well as sales of comparable products and services increased by 11.8% in Q1 across all segments. The U.S. sales increased by 3.5%, due to strategic menu price increases, McDonald s said in its first-quarter earnings report in 2022.
McDonald's menu also includes the Oreo and M&M's McFlurry flavors.
