PHILADELPHIA - McDonald۪s announced earlier this week the introduction of the McCaf̩ Shake, now available in restaurants and a treat that the restaurant chain hopes "will change the way customers experience" its milkshake.
Available in the three McDonald۪s milkshake flavors (chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry), the shake is served in a clear McCaf̩ cup and topped with whipped cream and a cherry.
McDonald€™s also is reintroducing the Shamrock Shake, available in stores now through March 31 with a portion of the proceeds from each Shamrock Shake sale benefitting Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC).
Through March 17, McDonald۪s is holding a "social" fundraiser, during which customers can check-in on foursquare at any restaurant in Philadelphia and send their check-in to Twitter with a @McDPhillymention. For every check-in received, McDonald۪s will donate $1 to RMHC. And each customer who participates will receive a coupon for a free McCaf̩ Shake.
"We are excited to introduce customers to the new McCafé Shake experience through our 'Social' fundraiser," said John Durante, president of McDonald's Restaurants of the Philadelphia Region Owner/Operator Association. "We are also encouraging our customers start checking-in on foursquare to support this terrific cause."
