The McDonald’s China Cilantro Sundae is being launched by the QSR brand as a limited-edition treat for consumers to try out when seeking an alternative to the traditional offerings they have come to know. The frozen treat is crafted with the brand's signature soft serve along with a bright green cilantro sauce and a hefty sprinkling of chopped cilantro. The sundae will thus offer an herbaceous flavor experience that might be loved or hated, depending on the individual consumer.
