It seems that the unicorn craze is alive and well as evidenced by [Burger King's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burger-king-shakes) new Unicorn Shake. The only catch is that you'll need to be in Spain or Portugal in order to try it.

Burger King's new Unicorn Shake has been dubbed by the chain as "the most unique shake." Available just in time for the summer season, the drink starts with [vanilla ice cream that's been blended](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smashburger-shakes) with blueberries to achieve a dazzling purple hue. The shake itself is then topped with whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles that give it the look of a sparkling unicorn mane. The whole thing is finished with an upside down sugar cone that is meant to resemble a unicorn's horn.

In case you were wondering, Burger King notes that "No unicorn has been hurt in the process" of making the shake.
