Is Sprite Releasing Mcdonald’S Sprite?

For those who aren’t familiar with the McDonald’s Sprite banter, people often point out how the fast-food chain’s Sprite packs a “spicier” kick compared to the branded beverage carried by other stockists. Hilarious claims even go as far as to say the drink is “powerful” off taste alone.

McDonald’s even joined in on the April Fools’ Day jesting, commenting under the mock graphic, “Brian from legal is going to freak when he sees this.” Even the UNO game Twitter account replied to the Mickey D’s Sprite can, asking, “why is it spicy?”

The restaurant has even weighed in on the hype, sharing a meme that alludes that a giant McDonald’s Sprite is to blame for the extinction of dinosaurs. McDonald’s also posted a picture of static and captioned it “the sound it made when it hit the ground.”

But sorry, Lil Nas X, this year’s April Fools’ crown goes to Sprite and the fake canned spicy McDonald’s Sprite. On April 1, Sprite posted a photo of a Limited Edition McDonald’s Spicy Sprite can on Twitter and said, “It hits different.”
