Mythical creature-inspired beverages have been all the Instagram rage.
Instead of ripping off Starbucks’ Unicorn Frappuccino, Arby’s is paying homage to the liger, a hybrid cross of a lion and a tiger.
“At Arby’s, instead of mythical unicorns we prefer powerful creatures like the Liger,” a press release stated.
While the liger exists in real life, the Liger Shake was inspired by the 2004 film Napoleon Dynamite.
The shake is a combination of the Orange Cream Shake and Ultimate Chocolate Shake with swirls of Ghirardelli chocolate sauce forming stripes.
