McDonald's The Afters Meal is Arriving at Locations in Canada
Michael Hemsworth — February 20, 2026 — Lifestyle
McDonald's The Afters Meal has been announced as a new collaboration with Drake-founded OVO to offer fans a way to satisfy their hunger this season.
The meal is being launched at participating locations in Canada and starts off with either a Junior Chicken or a McDouble alongside a poutine and the exclusive Nite Sprite drink. The Nite Sprite consists of Sprite with blue raspberry syrup for a sweet, citrusy and fruity flavor profile. The drink comes served in an OVO-branded cup that includes the brand's signature owl logo with a black and yellow color scheme.
McDonald's The Afters Meal is a limited time offering and will only be around while supplies last. Fans looking to get their hands on the Nite Sprite can also order the beverage a la carte.
