A new Girl Scouts cookie will be released in the 2023 Season

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) - Girl Scouts Dakota Horizons and Girl Scouts of the USA announced that a new Raspberry Rally cookie will join its nationwide lineup for the 2023 Girl Scout Cookie season.

According to a press release from Girls Scouts Dakota Horizons, the new addition will resemble the Thin Mint cookie, but the mint flavor will be replaced with a raspberry flavor. Representatives say the new cookie will only be available through online purchase in an effort to enhance the girls’ e-commerce sales and entrepreneurial skills.

Proceeds raised from in-person and online cookie orders directly benefit local councils and troops. Girl Scouts learn leadership, problem-solving, and community building through the Girl Scout Cookie Program, resulting in an experience that cultivates an entrepreneurial spirit.

“Our entrepreneurs demonstrate creative ways to run their businesses every year,” CEO Marla Meyer shared. “I can’t wait to see how they embrace the new online-exclusive cookie in the upcoming season.”
