We are thrilled to introduce three new coffee flavors inspired by iconic Girl Scout Cookies™: Thin Mints®, Coconut Caramel, and Peanut Butter Cookie! As a former Girl Scout myself, I was very excited to help develop these amazing new flavors in the Dunkin’ Test Kitchen.
As a food scientist and Sr. Research and Development Technologist here at Dunkin’, it’s my job to help create new beverages and coffee flavors for Dunkin’ Donuts. When I was given the opportunity to help create Dunkin’ coffee flavors inspired by my favorite cookies, I was overjoyed! How fun is my job?
It all starts with the Girl Scout Cookies themselves. Our team of food scientists, chefs and bakers tasted all of the cookies, and broke down the different flavor components in each one. With Thin Mints, for example, we tasted a crunchy cookie with a rich chocolate outside and a cooling mint finish. We then worked to translate those flavors for our coffee. The result: a delicious Thin Mints inspired coffee flavor!
We also created a Coconut Caramel inspired coffee, bringing together toasted coconut with creamy caramel, as well as Peanut Butter Cookie inspired coffee, our first-ever coffee featuring the flavor of mouth-watering peanut butter.
To see the official unveil of these exciting new flavors, check out the video below, that took place live from the birthplace of Girl Scouts of the USA, Savannah, Georgia!
Beginning February 26th and continuing through May, all three flavors will be available in our hot or iced coffees, lattes, macchiatos, frozen coffee, and frozen chocolate at participating Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants nationwide. Learn more about the exciting new flavors here.
In addition, to help power amazing experiences for girls, Dunkin’ Donuts franchisees at select locations across the country will open their doors to cookie entrepreneurs, inviting local troops to sell Girl Scout Cookies at Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants on weekends February 24 – March 18. Participating Dunkin’ Donuts locations can be found at www.girlscoutcookies.org as well as the official Girl Scout Cookie Finder app, free on iOS and Android devices.
