The cookie powerhouse Crumbl keeps its signature weekly rotation alive with a Father’s Day-themed lineup, marking a celebration for dads with several cookies inspired by the occasion. The roster features standout picks such as the Dubai Chocolate Cheesecake (a nod to the enduring Dubai chocolate trend), a grilling-inspired Cookies and Cream “Grill-It” cookie, and an “Everything But The Dad Jokes” cookie.
Today, we’re spotlighting a cookie born from a refreshing, warm-weather treat that many dads (and plenty of other folks) adore: Root Beer Floats. Crumbl’s take is dubbed the “Root Beer Float Cookie” and is described as “a marbled vanilla bean and root beer cookie crowned with a swirl of creamy vanilla bean and root beer mousse.” The concept sounds incredibly promising—nostalgic and delicious all at once.
Consistent with the rest of Crumbl’s Father’s Day lineup, the Root Beer Float Cookie is available through this Saturday, June 20th. Crumbl kindly shared the Father’s Day cookie lineup with us, and today we’re sampling the Root Beer Float Cookie to answer the question: is this float-inspired treat worth grabbing for yourself? Let’s dive in.
Root Beer Float Cookie
Pros: The presentation is, once again, absolutely striking—the same eye-catching display that Crumbl has been praised for with other cookies like the Grill-It variation. And when it comes to flavor, I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical about translating the essence of a Root Beer Float into a cookie. I could not have been more wrong.
The cookie itself, paired with the mousse on top, nails the Root Beer Float vibe—almost serving as the foamy top layer of a real float. I approached it without trepidation and ended up finishing the entire cookie in one sitting. In fact, I’m already contemplating placing another order…Cons: The mousse, while delicious and a true flavor booster, sits on the cookie in a rather thick layer—roughly a full inch atop the base. A few bites felt a touch heavy. Did that stop me from devouring the whole thing? Not at all. Did it momentarily catch me off guard? Yes. Verdict: This cookie taps into a hearty wave of nostalgia. If you grew up loving Root Beer Floats and have a sweet tooth, Crumbl’s Root Beer Float Cookie is likely to be on your must-try list before it vanishes.
