You may have rediscovered your love for Grimace a few years ago, but how well do you remember CosMc? CosMc was McDonald’s nostalgic character from the ’80s—to launch a new venture that combines quirky nostalgia with a caffeine kick. This new concept, CosMc’s, offers a galaxy-themed menu packed with sugary, caffeinated concoctions that go far beyond standard coffee. Think of it as the lovechild of McDonald’s and Dutch Bros, bringing a unique vibe to the increasingly popular sugary coffee scene. CosMc’s blends retro vibes with innovative drinks like the French Toast Galaxy Iced Latte and Coconaut Cold Brew, inviting us Earthlings to enjoy coffee that feels like an intergalactic adventure.
There are now 7 CosMc’s on earth and two of them are in our beloved San Antonio. We’ve seen a shift in recent years from traditional coffee shops to specialty, sugary, extra-caffeinated coffee drive-throughs. Dutch Brothers made its way down from the Pacific Northwest a few years ago and quite literally started taking the place of shops like Sonic. Is this the latest fro yo fad or is it here to stay? If you’ve been to a Cosmcs, email us and tell us about your experience.
