BuzzBallz's Cookie Nookie Was Inspired by a European Spice Biscuit

The newest seasonal flavor from BuzzBallz is Cookie Nookie and it's an exclusive, ready-to-drink cocktail that's compact in size and ready to delight adults this holiday. Inspired by a European spice cookie called speculoos, Brigid Calloway, BuzzBallz Director of R&D, came up with a cookie-inspired cocktail. “This spice cookie is ground up and made into a product that is known as 'cookie butter.' Liquid cookie butter sounded amazing to me, add a cream liquor and Cookie Nookie was born,” said Calloway.

Made with real cream, the cookie-inspired cocktail is richly textured, smooth and packed with caramel flavors—and a single can packs a punch with 15% ABV.

Alongside the all-new Cookie Nookie, Buzzballz announced the return of Eggnog for a limited time.
