McDonald's Is Releasing a Purple Potato Shake in Japan

This fall, McDonald’s is rolling out a huc99 special sweet potato shake for a limited time. It’s purple! The flavor is “murasaki imo” (紫いも), which means “purple sweet potato” in English. Note that this is not a yam! It is very much a fall food. According to website Entabe, the purple shake will go on sale from September 10 in Japan. マックシェイクに「紫いも」味！紫いものコクとミルクがベストマッチ [Entabe]cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"1630436288","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"kotaku-east","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"kotaku-east","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); To contact the author of huc99 com this post, write to bashcraftATkotaku.com or find him on Twitter @Brian_Ashcraft Kotaku East is your slice of Asian internet culture, bringing you the latest talking points from Japan, Korea, China and beyond. 75r Tune in every morning from 4am to 8am.
