Girl Scout Cookie season is here, and while these beloved treats are often paired with a glass of milk, we have something a little more sophisticated in mind—wine! Whether you're indulging in a nostalgic favorite or discovering a new go-to, the right wine pairing can elevate every bite. From rich reds that complement chocolatey classics to crisp whites that enhance buttery shortbreads, we’ve matched each cookie with the perfect pour. So, grab your favorite bottle (or two) and get ready to turn cookie time into happy hour!
Bristol Cream - A classic with a classic, this sweet sherry goes great with all things chocolate.
Rare Wine CO Madeira- Madeira was a favorite among the founding fathers for its lusciously sweet profile and being nearly indestructible with notes of coffee, toffee, and cocoa are the perfect pairing for Adventurfuls.
Castello del Poggio- A fantastic Moscato that isn’t too sweet makes a great pairing for cookies without too much chocolate getting in the way.
Broadbent 10 Year Tawny- One of the better Tawny Ports you’ll find, the sweet, slightly fruity, slightly nutty character accents the chocolate and caramel beautifully.
Cockburn’s Ruby Port- Unlike Tawny Ports, Ruby Ports aren’t intentionally exposed to oxygen, making the sweet red fruit front and center like a chocolate covered cherry.
Baglio Baiata Cremovo- A traditional Sicilian wine made with sweet Marsala and egg yolk giving it a custard-like aroma, this bottle is friendly to all things peanut butter.
Sip, Savor, and Enjoy!
Who knew that a box of Girl Scout Cookies and a well-chosen bottle of wine could create such a delightful pairing? Whether you're hosting a tasting party or simply unwinding after a long day, these matches prove that indulgence can be both fun and sophisticated. So, stock up on your favorite cookies, pour yourself a glass, and toast to the perfect pairing—because some traditions are even better with wine!
