Something purple may be brewing at McDonald’s Singapore — and fans of the iconic McDonaldland character Grimace might want to keep their eyes peeled.
In a playful teaser email sent out on 16 March, Grimace himself appeared to “write” to fans in his signature goofy style, hinting that he has been working on “something purple and delicious”. The message was accompanied by a blurry selfie of the lovable purple character holding what appears to be a drink in a McDonald’s cup — possibly teasing an upcoming purple milkshake.
The intentionally chaotic message reads like a clumsy text from Grimace himself, complete with quirky spelling and enthusiastic exclamations:
Hi friends!! It mi, Grimace!! I’ve been working on sumthing beerry special… I’m finally bringing you my favourite thing in the wORld and more…
The selfie shows Grimace mid-snap with a drink in hand, and while the image is slightly blurred — likely due to those famously “big thumbs” he jokes about — the cup does appear to contain a light purple beverage.
A Grimace Shake in Singapore?
Grimace teases ‘i loveee shake do you #mcdsg’
If this feels familiar, that’s because the Grimace Shake previously launched in other markets and quickly became a viral sensation. The limited-time milkshake — typically berry-flavoured and distinctly purple — sparked a massive wave of social media buzz when it first appeared overseas.
While McDonald’s Singapore has yet to confirm exactly what the upcoming item will be, the teaser strongly suggests a purple drink inspired by Grimace could soon be making its way onto local menus.
What we know so far
At the moment, McDonald’s Singapore has not released official details about:
-
The drink’s flavour
-
Pricing
-
Exact launch date
But judging from the teaser, fans may not have to wait long.
The email ends with Grimace’s excited message:
“See you soon!! R u reddyyyy”
If the hints are anything to go by, a purple surprise from Grimace could be landing at McDonald’s outlets in Singapore very soon.
For now, keep an eye out — because when Grimace says something purple and delicious is coming, it might just be worth the wait.
