Scooter’s Coffee is offering a delicious new way to enjoy a nostalgia-inducing treat with the debut of its new Cosmic Brownies Latte and the Cosmic Brownies Crème Cold Brew.
If you're unfamiliar with Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies, the product is a chewy chocolate brownie topped with fudge icing and rainbow-hued candy-coated chocolate pieces. Now, Scooter's Coffee is taking that iconic snack cake and offering it in a sippable new format for the summer season. The Cosmic Brownies Latte is available hot, iced, or blended, and features a dollop of whipped cream, a sweet mocha drizzle, and cosmic candy gems on top. On the other hand, the new Cosmic Brownies Crème Cold Brew features the brand's signature slow-steeped cold brew with a topping of cupcake cold foam, mocha drizzle, and cosmic candy gems.
Both drinks are available for a limited time beginning on June 18, 2026
