Costco's new double chocolate mint sundae: a sweet st. patrick's treat

A february tradition: green treats arrive

February brings a familiar wave of seasonal delights. After Punxsutawney Phil’s predictions and Valentine's Day festivities, the anticipation builds for the minty, chocolatey goodness that heralds St. Patrick's Day. McDonald’s and other ice cream giants typically lead the charge, but this year, Costco has joined the fun with a brand new offering: the Double Chocolate Mint Sundae. Fans are already clamoring to get their hands on this limited-time treat.

What's inside costco's new sundae?

The Double Chocolate Mint Sundae is a layered delight. It begins with a generous drizzle of chocolate syrup, followed by a layer of chocolate cookie crumbles – strikingly similar to Oreo cookies. A generous scoop of mint-flavored soft serve forms the core, topped with another layer of chocolate syrup and those satisfying cookie crumbles. For those who prefer a less intense mint flavor, a vanilla soft serve option is also available.

Early reviews are in: a peppermint patty vibe

Early reviews from Food court enthusiasts have been largely positive. Sushi Guy, a popular Bay Area Food blogger, described the sundae as having a “very minty” flavor, “like a cold version of a [York] Peppermint Patty.” He praised the cookie crumbles for adding a welcome crunch and noted the syrup’s resemblance to Hershey’s chocolate syrup, rating the dessert an impressive 8.8 out of 10. He predicts any mint chocolate chip ice cream lover will enjoy it.
