Restaurant Brands International is launching the Fruit Loops shake. Yes, for real. The company confirmed to TheStreet the shake will be available for a limited time only at participating restaurants nationwide starting April 17 for a recommended price of $2.99. It’s made from vanilla-flavored soft serve ice cream, Fruit Loops cereal pieces (compliments of Kellogg’s) and sweet sauce.

Burger King is no stranger to thinking outside the box when it comes to fast-food. The company teamed up with beverage and snack giant Pepsi  last year to develop what it called Mac n’ Cheetos. The snack mashup was a portable combination of mac n’ cheese covered with crispy Cheetos flavor. Last March, it unveiled the “Angriest Whopper,” a burger with a red bun, jalapenos and hot sauce.

And in September 2016, Burger King sold a black-bunned burger filled with Kraft Heinz’s A1 steak sauce called the Halloween Whopper for a limited time.
