CosMc’s sets itself apart by offering an array of innovative and unexpected beverage creations. From specialty lemonades and teas to indulgent blended beverages and cold brews, the menu showcases bold flavors, vibrant colors, and functional boosts. Customization is key, with options like popping boba, flavor syrups, and energy or Vitamin C shots, ensuring a personalized cosmic journey for every customer.
A Stellar Food Selection:
While beverages take center stage, CosMc’s also features a small lineup of savory and sweet offerings. Guests can savor options like the Spicy Queso Sandwich, Savory Hash Brown Bites, and Pretzel Bites with dipping sauces. Sweet treats include the Blueberry Lemon Cookie Sundae and Caramel Fudge Brownies, alongside a few beloved McDonald’s classics.
Navigating the CosMc’s Universe:
CosMc’s offers a seamless digital and Drive Thru experience, making it easy for guests to explore and customize their orders. Dynamic menu boards and cashless payment devices streamline the ordering process, while assigned Drive Thru pickup windows ensure a stress-free journey to coffee bliss.
Expanding the Cosmic Coffee Experience:
Looking ahead, McDonald’s plans to open approximately 10 pilot CosMc’s locations by the end of 2024, with a focus on the Dallas-Fort Worth and San Antonio metro areas. This expansion reflects the company’s commitment to providing mood-boosting escapes and captivating experiences to coffee lovers far and wide.
