I just bought a new McCafe Frozen Strawberry Lemonade drink from McDonald and you can get one too at your local McDonalds today. According to McDonald, “It’s sweet. It’s Tangy. And it’s cool.” When I got the drink, I thought it was blood that they added to the drink because the strawberry syrup looked bloody as hell. Also, I was thinking what would be a good McDonald food choice that fits well with this new drink and I looked at their Double Filet-O-Fish, why not!

The way the McDonald employees prepared for this Frozen Strawberry Lemonade was by putting the frozen Lemonade first into the cup and uses it as the base for the drink. After the cup fill with frozen lemonade, then they added Strawberry flavored syrup on top of it. When you smell the aroma coming out from the plastic cup, it’s all lemonade scent. Also, the drink itself wasn’t totally frozen like the Slurpee drinks and it was more close to half frozen or similar to Dunkin Dounts new Mountain Dew Coolatta drink. Before you start sipping it, you should definitely stir up the lemonade with strawberry syrup because that way you could taste a more balanced flavor. As for the taste after the mix, the first couple sips tasted more toward lemonade and the Strawberry flavor was based on how well you mixed up the two flavors. After the frozen lemonade has melted a little bit, the taste gets better because you could finally taste the two flavors at once. When your mouth processes your sip, you first hit by the strong lemonade taste and then end with the subtle lightly sweetened Strawberry flavor. The flavor wasn’t sweet at all and it was quite the opposite due to large amount of frozen lemonade in the drink. The lemonade flavor was close to the real lemonade and at the end the drink seems to be more of a lemonade drink.

Overall, this Frozen Strawberry Lemonade is a quite good drink if you like lemonade drinks. I wasn’t expecting this drink to be that good in the beginning based on how it looked and based on previous experiences with McDonald drinks.
