One chain is known for burgers and the like, the other for coffee, cake and pumpkin spice latte.
A TikTok trick now brings McDonald's and Starbucks together.
The video portal TikTok is developing more and more from a pure lypsync and dance clip portal to a great source for tips and tricks from a wide variety of directions.
Here, a lot of people upload little videos of hacks that they want to share with the general public.
Here you had to learn that you should soak strawberries in salted water before eating, how to brew tea properly or how to prepare the famous Corona coffee Dalgona.
Now a new video has gone viral and has already
collected
over
30,000 likes and 350 comments
(as of 09/10/20).
The short video by the user “ellbrxo” with the simple comment “Thank us later” shows a young woman sitting in a car with a
vanilla milkshake from McDonald's
on her lap.
She then simply pours a
McCafé espresso into this
and stirs the straw that comes with the milkshake.
It's ready, the imitation
frappuccino
- one of Starbucks' cult drinks, which is also significantly more expensive.

You can still modify the DIY frappuccino
The small, simple tip has received
many positive comments
, including ideas on how it could be improved even further.
A user recommends under the video clip to let the espresso cool down a bit beforehand so that it does not melt the milkshake too much.
Another suggests
trying
the tip with
other flavors of the milkshake
, for example chocolate, to create a mocha frappuccino.
Another user comments that he or she works at McDonald's and uses this trick all the time.

German McDonald's customers can note that the fast food giant also
offers McFrappé
(which is even cheaper than the milkshake-espresso combination).
The consistency of the frappé is somewhat more liquid and of course there is also a
difference in taste
.
Just try the trick, decide for yourself and save yourself the trip to Starbucks ...
