Earlier this year, fast food chain McDonald’s introduced the Grimace Shake to the menu for a limited time only, and it took the UK by storm – to date, there have been over 86.7 million posts on TikTok relating to the viral milkshake.
Foodies were gutted when the well-known fast food chain removed the shake from the menu, however, they’ll be happy to know that the Grimace Shake has returned to the chain’s festive menu this December.
