In addition to helping girls around the world (Girls Scouts are included among Sisterhood Agenda’s global partners), you can go even further in indulging your sweet tooth by also enhancing your palette with wine. However, sisters, you must be the legal drinking age and you cannot choose just any wine.
Who says wine pairing is only for fancy dinners or cheese boards? Two brilliant women, Jessica Norris and Tracy Byrnes, have elevated the art of pairing by introducing something delightfully unexpected—matching 12 Girl Scout cookies with 12 wines.
Jessica Norris, the wine director at Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse in New York City and one of Wine Enthusiast’s top 40 under 40 tastemakers, teamed up with Tracy Byrnes, a Vivino partner and wine expert, to create this genius combination. Their pairing ideas celebrate the unique flavors of each beloved cookie, from the rich and chocolaty to the tangy and zesty, alongside complementary wines that enhance every bite.
Think of the classic Thin Mint paired with a bold Cabernet Sauvignon. The minty chocolate richness of the cookie meets its perfect match in the deep, fruity notes of the wine, creating a balance of flavors that’s nothing short of divine. Or picture savoring a crisp Sauvignon Blanc with the sweet, coconutty delight of a Samoa—it’s a tropical escape for your taste buds.
But the creativity doesn’t stop there. Whether it’s a zesty Pinot Grigio complementing the buttery Lemonades or a smooth Merlot bringing out the nutty notes in Do-si-dos, Norris and Byrnes crafted each pairing to make you rethink what wine and dessert can be.
Their innovative take has not only delighted cookie and wine enthusiasts alike but also proven that food pairing can be playful, unexpected, and downright fun. Cheers to these trailblazing women for taking two simple pleasures and turning them into a gourmet experience. So grab a box of your favorite Girl Scout cookies, pour yourself a glass, and let the pairing magic begin! Yea for cookies and wine! 🍷🍪
Don’t forget to serve your Girl Scout cookies and wine at your next sisterhood gathering. And, naturally, Vivino has an app for that: Vivino wine app.
