Fast-food giant McDonald's has run out of milkshakes in all of its British outlets due to supply chain problems.
The burger chain has also been left without bottled drinks across its 1,250 outlets in England, Scotland and Wales.
A spokesperson reportedly said the group is suffering supply chain issues but is "working hard to return these items to the menu."
McDonald's is the latest to be hit by supply woes after Nando's was last week forced to shut around 50 restaurants amid a chicken shortage. It blamed staffing shortages at suppliers and a reduced number of truck drivers.
Rival KFC also warned recently that supply chain issues meant it was unable to stock some menu items.
Firms across a raft of sectors in Britain have been battling with a supply chain crisis due to a shortage of truck drivers following post-Brexit EU immigration rules, COVID-19 restrictions and self-isolation rules.
The supply pressures have also been affecting supermarkets in recent weeks, while manufacturers have reported sharp increases in the prices of raw materials.
Business groups representing the retail and transport sectors have been calling for the government to review plans not to grant temporary work visas to drivers from the EU.
McDonald's was not immediately available for comment.
