Iowa's, Illinois' New Favorite Way To Eat Girl Scout Cookies

When you think of pairing something with wine, you normally think of cheeses, meats, or fruits. Or you could do a combination of the three and make what Millennials like me like to make, a charcuterie board.

One thing I thought you never thought about pairing wines with, is Girl Scout Cookies. That is a new trend that's going around. People are throwing Girl Scout Cookies and wine pairing parties.

We told you about how Crawford Brew Works in Bettendorf hosted a Cookies & Brews event to pair beers with Girl Scout Cookies. It was an event to support the local Quad Cities Girl Scouts group while enjoying beer and cookies. But there is another alcohol you can pair with Girl Scout Cookies right at home: Wine.

My boss Ryan told me about a little wine party he and his wife were throwing that had a little twist to it. His wife found this trend on the internet where people are pairing wines with Girl Scout Cookies. After telling me about it, I of course had to look it up to find out if this was actually a thing. Sure enough, it's a pretty big trend right now.

Girl Scout Cookies and wine pairing parties are so trendy, you can actually buy sheets on the internet to tell you exactly what cookies go with what wines. Because we're so nice, we're doing you a solid and put a "short sheet" of what kind of wines go with each specific Girl Scout Cookies.
