New Girl Scout Cookie Flavor

Girl Scouts

Before I tell you how to buy your favorite Girl Scout cookies, let me introduce you to the new cookie in the Girl Scout's arsenal, the Raspberry Rally. The Raspberry Rally is a thin, crispy cookie infused with raspberry flavor and dipped in a chocolaty coating. They look like Thin Mints, but their flavor is far from them and just as delicious.

This year, Raspberry Rally will be sold exclusively online and shipped directly to your home. Be sure to find a Girl Scout you know to place your order.
