McDonalds is adding a fan favourite McFlurry flavour to its UK menu and the exact date has been revealed.

The Lotus Biscoff McFlurry is making a welcomed return to the fast-food chain menus after rumours had started circulating on social media.

It comes after McDonald's announced earlier this year that it was axing mini potato waffles along with news it was axing nine popular items from its menu and planned to make changes to its burger receipe.

And the rumours are true, the much-loved ice cream will be making its debut in UK and Ireland restaurants on June 21st for around six weeks - or until stocks last - whichever comes first.

And that's not all, it will come in two sizes - regular (RRP £1.99) and mini (RRP £1.49).

The item has been available overseas for many years, with fans previously joking about setting up a petition, this tweet from 2018 reads, "Petition for McDonalds to make a Biscoff McFlurry," and the fan later found them in France.

Thomas O’Neill, head of marketing, food and beverages at McDonald's, said: "We’re so pleased to be launching the Lotus Biscoff McFlurry in the UK and Ireland.

"It’s been a long-time hope to some of our McDonald’s patrons and we’re glad we can make this into a reality."

The new menu addition comes just in time for the summer.

One fan wrote, "I’m excited to try a Lotus Biscoff McFlurry. So good. I haven’t had McDonalds in a while, I’ll treat myself to one for sure soon."

Another put, "Apparently Mcdonalds summer uk McFlurry is lotus biscoff?? ARE YE KIDDING"

And a third fan added, "Lotus Biscoff is my absolute favourite, I've dreamt of this"

McDonald shared the news on its social media, writing, "You asked for it. We deliver. The Lotus Biscoff McFlurry, coming June 21."

And if you've got an ice cream maker, why not have a go at making your own Lotus Biscoff ice cream, using Lotus Biscoff biscuits dipped in chocolate. We'll just leave that ice cream receipe thought there....
