The chocolate milk brand teamed up with Girl Scouts to reinvent two classic cookie flavors as drinks. Thin Mint and Caramel Coconut (better known as Samoas) milk are available for a limited time in stores. We were able to acquire the latter from a local CVS.
Of course, the drink does not physically resemble a cookie.
And, we are sad to report, it does not taste of cookie nor chocolate milk. Our taste-testing editors provided a range of "eh, just fine" reviews. "Drinking this was a lackluster experience, similar to drinking the milk you've been dipping a coconut caramel cookie in, but not nearly as magical," said one. "At first it smells like fake maple, then it tastes like coffee. Its flavor is underwhelming for a cookie, and overwhelming for flavored milk. Regardless of what I just said, it's relatively pleasant," said another.
But, as one tester pointed out, "This would make a great White Russian-type drink." This is the truth. Nesquik's Girl Scouts cookie drink would make a fine, milky cocktail. (But that feels a little sacrilegious.)
The brand's well-known rabbit is promoting this flavor infusion as a "double awesome accident," as you can watch in this deeply unprovocative YouTube clip below:
If you're really in need of Girl Scouts cookie-flavored something, you can use Nesquik's store locator to hunt them down, or you can make your own, homemade versions instead:
