Though COVID-19 has put a damper on a lot of people's summer plans, it hasn't stopped McDonald's from rolling out seasonal products, including the sweet new Minute Maid Pink Lemonade Slushie.
Last summer, McDonald's delighted customers by adding a new Minute Maid Sweet Peach Slushie to its drink lineup. This year the brand is going pink with its new Minute Maid Pink Lemonade Slushie. As fans have probably guessed, the new drink is essentially Minute Maid's sweet Pink Lemonade flavor, but in a sippable slushie form. The new flavor replaces the existing Sweet Punch Slushie flavor on McDonald's menus nationwide. As a result, McDonald's summer 2020 Minute Maid Slushie lineup includes Pink Lemonade, Fruit Punch, and Blue Raspberry flavors.
