McDonald’s Created A Purple Sweet Potato Ice Cream In An Oreo Cone — Here’s Where To Get It

Ice cream comes in all types of colors and flavors — but as far as soft serve is concerned, vanilla and chocolate are still the most common. Maybe not so much…purple ice cream. Or sweet potato ice cream. However, McDonald’s decided to change the game and offer up a soft serve ice cream that breaks all the rules. Like, for one, it’s purple, meaning that it will likely make your Instagram followers stop and stare. To add even more pop to its lilac hue, many customers are getting it served in a black cone.

The flavor of the ice cream is sweet potato — and the black cone tastes like Oreos. Maybe not the matchup you might have expected, but it’s safe to trust the creative minds behind the McDonald’s menu. They did create the Big Mac and some of the best fast food desserts, after all.

Now, here’s the bad news — as of right now, this ice cream treat is only available in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is great already — with vacation-worthy spots to visit such as the clock tower in Tsim Sha Tsui and Hong Kong Disneyland — but perhaps with the addition of sweet potato ice cream, you might be inspired to confirm it as your next travel destination.

Even though it’s not currently available in the States, you can at least appreciate the glorious cone online. Here are some masterpiece photos of the lilac ice cream:

Sweet potato ice cream isn’t the only purple dessert that Hong Kong McDonald’s locations are serving — they’ve also offered up taro-flavored desserts. Popular overseas, taro is a root vegetable that’s a staple in many diets.

All of it looks delicious — and quite pretty. If McDonald’s ever wanted to test the sweet potato ice cream in America, it might be a bigger hit than they think.

 

If ice cream is your dessert of choice, you should give our Galaxy Ice Cream Pops a try. Not only are they delicious, but they’ll also look amazing on your Instagram (just like McDonald’s sweet potato ice cream).

Happy summer!
