MONTGOMERY, Ala. – Today, Girl Scouts of Southern Alabama announced that Exploremores™, a rocky road ice cream–inspired sandwich cookie, will join the lineup for the 2026 Girl Scout Cookie season. Filled with delicious flavors of chocolate, marshmallow, and toasted almond–flavored crème, Exploremores™ reflect the spirit of exploration at the heart of every Girl Scout. Girl Scouts across the United States will offer the Exploremores™ cookie nationally, both online and in person at local booths, during the upcoming 2026 Girl Scout Cookie season alongside fan favorites like Thin Mints® and Samoas®.
Each cookie season, through the Girl Scout Cookie Program, girls push their limits, embrace challenges, think creatively, and believe in their own potential. While earning skill-building badges such as the My First Cookie Business, My Cookie Customer, and My Cookie Team badges, girls acquire leadership and entrepreneurial tools needed for brighter futures. As entrepreneurs, girls master the ability to set goals, make decisions, manage money, develop people skills, and learn business ethics. Every purchase of Exploremores™—and the entire lineup of iconic Girl Scout Cookies—helps girls unbox a world of possibilities, one cookie at a time.
With each cookie box sold, consumers are supporting Girl Scouts as they learn, grow and thrive through all of life’s adventures. All proceeds from cookie sales stay local with Girl Scout councils and troops to help fund life-changing programs, experiences and learnings all year long.
The 2026 Girl Scout Cookie Season will kick off in southern Alabama on December 8, 2025, with Digital Cookie Pre-sales.
