With summer in full swing, McDonald's Hong Kong is giving its soft serve an upgrade with rich and chocolaty Oreo cones. With the dark black cones as a base, each soft serve flavor looks like a gothic take on a popular summer treat.
One of the most buzz-worthy of these new treats is the purple sweet potato ice cream. Served in one of the Oreo cones, the lilac-colored soft serve looks almost too pretty to eat. However, fans should not hesitate to scoop up one of these sweet treats as they are only available for a limited time at McDonald's locations across Hong Kong
For those who are uninterested in potato-flavoured ice cream, McDonald's Mexico locations are serving up the Oreo cones with a sweet cookies and cream ice cream dubbed the Cono Oreo.
