It's time — time for each of us who vowed to stay trim and give up the pizza, booze and high-calorie goodies in 2019 to give up the ghost. It's Girl Scout cookie season.
You'll see plenty of GSC milkshakes dotting the heatmap this month and next, but we were delighted when we came across Kenny's Burger Joint's two GSC cocktails. Girl Scout cookies PLUS booze? We're in heaven.
Through the end of February, they'll offer two options: Thin Mint and Samoa versions. Each has two different alcoholic elements — because one is never enough — with crushed cookies and vanilla ice cream. Yes, they're still kind of milkshakes, but we'll take it, especially for the $7 price tag. Isn't that about how much a box of those bad boys costs now?
