We Need McDonald’s Confetti Cookie Dough McFlurry!

Author Aimee Thomas
LONDON, ENGLAND - NOVEMBER 12: A general view of the sign outside a McDonalds drive through restaurant on November 12, 2019 in London, England. Workers from six London branches of the global fast food chain McDonalds went on strike today demanding guaranteed hours, £15 per hour wage, union recognition and an end to youth rates of pay. They were joined by Shadow Secretary of State for Exiting the EU, Keir Starmer, and will take their protest to Downing Street later today. (Photo by Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)

McDonald’s just launched their new Confetti Cookie Dough McFlurry! I was so excited until I realized it’s just in Canada… for now. But we are demanding it comes here to the States! Matter of fact, test it in Las Vegas!

The new mouth-watering treat combines their loved vanilla soft serve with candy confetti dots and chunks of cookie dough for a dessert that will guarantee satisfy anyone’s sweet tooth. Canada gets the good vacation time, the great insurance plans, AND now this?! Americans are already calling for McDonald’s to bring this to the States ASAP. Can we all agree that McDonald’s has the best vanilla soft served ice cream in the world? Now add cookie dough.

My mouth is watering as I type

My question is, will it be as good if not better than the Oreo McFlurry? How about the limited edition they added to their menu recently… a budding favorite… The new McDonald’s Strawberry Shortcake McFlurry it’s FIRE. If you haven’t tried it, get it before it goes away. It starts with their creamy vanilla soft serve with strawberry flavored clusters and crispy, buttery shortbread cookies. Again with the mouth watering.

If you’re concerned about the nutritional information of McDonald’s McFlurry, well… make yourself a cheat day because it’s going to cost you 470 calories and 67 grams of carbs!!! Side note: I don’t even want to know the carbs that are in my large fries and 10 McNuggets that I order with each McFlurry I get.

What is your Mcdonald’s order? Everyone has one.

If you are in Canada order one and think of us here in the States. Hopefully, we get a taste of that by the time summer is over because I now have a craving.

7 Best Bubble Tea Spots In Las Vegas

Let’s talk about our guilty pleasure – bubble tea. It’s that refreshing drink we all crave during the hot summer, or even on a cloudy day or when it’s snowing outside. The chewy boba bubbles and unique flavors can make us feel like we’re on cloud nine. April 30th is National Bubble Tea Day, but how did bubble tea became so popular? How did that tea with squishy boba balls become a cultural phenomenon? Before diving into the 7 best bubble tea spots in the Las Vegas Valley, let’s explore how this fabulous drink rose to earn its own national holiday.

Bubble tea, also known as “boba tea” or “pearl milk tea,” originated from Taiwan in the 1980s. Its creation was a clever invention by two Taiwanese tea shop owners, Liu Han-Chieh and Lin Hsiu Hui. During a business trip in Japan, Liu came across the texture of the tapioca pearls and thought of adding them to their tea drinks. After a few experiments, they created a milky tea drink that had chewy tapioca balls settled at the bottom. And just like that, bubble tea was born!

Bubble tea made its first appearance in America in the early 2000s and quickly gained a strong following among the Asian community. As people started to embrace the unique flavors and textures, the popularity of bubble tea spread across America, and the rest of the world. Bubble tea shops are now found in every corner of the globe. Today, people can not only enjoy the classic milk tea but also a variety of flavors such as fruit tea, matcha tea and even chocolate tea.

Most bubble tea lovers enjoy the fact they can customize their drinks according to their preference. One can choose from different tea bases (black tea, green tea, matcha, etc.), sugar level, ice level, and toppings (tapioca pearls, jelly, popping boba, etc). That’s why shops have a plethora of options that cater to everyone’s liking.

Bubble tea has become so popular that it has even earned its holiday! April 30th is National Bubble Tea Day, a day for bubble tea lovers to rejoice and indulge. To celebrate this day, bubble tea shops entice customers with deals and discounts.

So what are you waiting for? Step out enjoy a fabulous bubble tea in fabulous Las Vegas! While there are numerous bubble tea shops around the valley that serve delicious boba drinks, here are the 7 best bubble tea spots in the Las Vegas Valley.
