McDonald's launches 'delicious' new sauce and accompanying menu items

If you're searching for an excuse to get McDonald's for dinner this month, we've got some good news for you.

The fast food giant is shaking up its menu for the summer with a handful of limited-edition menu items and a brand-new 'delicious' dipping sauce, and if early reviews are anything to go by, McDonald's may well have another hit on its hands!

From 21 July, participating restaurants across the US will be treating customers to a creamy new Caesar Sauce, made with parmesan, garlic and hints of lemon.

"Spotted: a delicious new addition to McDonald's menu," a press release from McDonald's said.

"Welcome to your one and only source for updates on the new menu items, returning fan-favorites and limited-time offers making their way to restaurants across the U.S."

And it won't just be available as a dipping sauce for your McNuggets and fries.

The Caesar Sauce is also giving some McDonald's menu items a summer glow-up.

Leading the line-up is the new Caesar Snack Wrap, which combines a McDonald's McCrispy Strip with shredded lettuce, cheese and the new Caesar Sauce, all wrapped inside a soft tortilla.

There's also the Bacon Caesar McCrispy Sandwich, featuring the fast food chain's signature crispy chicken fillet topped with Caesar Sauce, applewood smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato, crispy onions and pickles in a toasted potato bun.

Reviewing the new sauce, The Takeout described the Caesar Sauce as the 'star of the show' that 'works wonderfully' across the new menu items.

Safe to say, we'll be giving it a try ourselves.

The summer menu revamp also includes all-new McDonald's McCrispy Strips, which now feature an even crispier panko-style coating that's designed to pair with the new Caesar dipping sauce.

In other words, McDonald's clearly wants customers to be dunking as many strips as possible this summer.

If that doesn't get your mouth watering, nothing will.

Another tempting addition to the McDonald's menu this month is the new Honey Brown Butter Bacon Egg & Cheese Biscuit.

This tempting breakfast item combines bacon, egg and cheese in a freshly baked biscuit with a sweet and buttery honey brown butter spread, giving the classic breakfast sandwich a brand-new twist.

So, if you're planning a McDonald's breakfast run, you might have just found your next order.

With a brand-new dipping sauce, two succulent new chicken creations and a fresh breakfast option all arriving at the same time, McDonald's is giving fans plenty of reasons to switch up their usual order this summer.

Just don't wait too long if you're tempted, as these new menu items are only sticking around for a limited time!
