Staring Tuesday, the purple-coloured milkshake will be on Canadian menus for a limited time at participating restaurants.

The Grimace Shake was first spotted at a Vancouver Canucks game a few weeks ago. It was introduced to McDonald’s menus across the U.S. last summer to celebrate his birthday and is now available to Canadians.

“When the Grimace Shake dropped for our neighbours to the south, the response we got from fans here in Canada was overwhelming,” said Alyssa Buetikofer, Chief Marketing Officer, McDonald’s Canada, in a statement.

“Inspired by the sheer creativity and passion we saw for the Grimace Shake, we had to bring it to Canadian menus.”
