Move over milk because Girl Scout cookies and wine will change that sweet indulgence. Whether you cannot resist that sleeve of Thin Mints or prefer those always tasty Samoas, there is a wine that will make those flavors even more enjoyable. Ready to take a bite and open a bottle?
Wine pairings do not have to be overly complicated. Sometimes finding a little fun with a twist of the cork makes for a delicious flavor experience.
Although personal preference should always guide food and wine pairings, the reality is that sometimes people can appreciate a little guidance. Peeling back the grape and looking at the flavors in a wine can lead to an unexpected food and wine pairing experience.
Recently, Barefoot Wines shared its suggestions for Girl Scout cookies and wine pairing. While these ideas are for a type of cookie, not just those once a year favorite treats, the wine pairing flavor ideas can apply in many ways.
