It’s the brand crossover we didn’t even know we were waiting for. America’s #1 cookie and America’s #1 soda brand* have combined forces to create not only a new cola but arguably the most intriguing Oreo flavor to date.

I’ve been starting to get a little bored with Oreo flavor trends. Sure, I just reviewed its Sour Patch collab, but outside of that, I’ve felt like its creative ideas were starting to lose their luster, and each new flavor just ended up tasting like one it had previously made. A shot in the arm was needed.
Enter Coca-Cola Oreo – a jab everyone should agree on. … Let’s move on.
Upon popping the tab on the bag, I was smacked with an amazing scent. This is probably the best-smelling snack I’ve had in a long time. They instantly smell like Coca-Cola but also don’t lose the “baked good” scent of the cookie. It’s a perfect mix. I want this as a candle.
The great start only got better when I saw the dual-colored wafers, with the red side having three distinct Coke-branded designs. The attention to detail is unrivaled by any Oreo in the past.
My nose liked ’em, my eyes liked ’em, but what about my big fat mouth?
Oh yeah, my mouth liked ’em. These are great. I expected them to be, and they met my expectations. They taste like Coca-Cola. Simple as that. Job well done.
Actually, I think they taste like a Coke float, which is arguably even better.
If I had to be specific beyond, “it tastes like Coke,” these remind me of Cherry Vanilla Coke. The crème, which is speckled with popping candies, gives it that vanilla/ice cream/almost marshmallow-like addition, and there is a distinct cherry hint within the Coca-Cola flavoring itself.
The Coke website claims the brown cookie is made with Coca-Cola syrup, while the red cookie is just a dyed Golden Oreo. I separated the two, and that checks out. There’s also definitely some Coke essence within the crème.
Speaking of the crème, my only complaint is that I wish the popping candy… well, popped off more. It’s a fun addition and a great way to ape the effervescence of a refreshing soda into the cookie, but the crackling is few and far between. Also, just to nitpick, I wish they were red and speckled the crème better than the moldy off-white bits they are now, if only for aesthetics.
Cola is not a flavor we really get much outside of the drink itself, so it was cool to have that profile in something edible. The only other things I could really think of were random candies like Bottle Caps or my dearly departed Betty Crocker Soda-licious Fruit Snacks. For the love of all things holy, please bring those back.
So yeah, Coca-Cola Oreo Cookies are a hit. One more tiny knock I’ll give is something about the cola flavor sweetness overload gets a little cloying after a few cookies. I was missing that crisp, bubbly taste of an actual Coke. Also, I won’t step on the review of the corresponding Oreo Coca-Cola, but I definitely liked these more. That said, they’re both a must try.

I was shocked at how good these are. I’m not a big fan of Oreos, but Coke Zero is my “treat”, so these were right on the mark.
I do love Coca-Cola as a beverage, and oreo as a tasty cookie especially with milk. There are a lot of good flavors of oreos, but this coke/oreo cookie was the worst flavor of oreo cookie I have ever tryed. NOT A FAN!
These were right on the mark! Even have pop rock type candy for the fizz of a real Coke!
I can’t wait to try these. Haven’t been to Walmart recently but our price cutters doesn’t have them yet.
I’m surprised people are loving these because they made me nauseous. Literally. The cola flavoring was so off-putting and left a lingering aftertaste that I never get with actual Coke. I’ll try them again, but right now it’s at most a 3/10 for me.
I love these in concept but my package made me queasy. I think the red food coloring in the golden oreo was the culprit. I’m not saying itll happen to everyone but just my personal experience. sad.
These were disgusting. The filling was cloyingly sweet. I would not buy these again.
I wasn’t that impressed. The flavor is OK & the popping was too subtle. There were popping 4th of July Fireworks Oreo’s that were waaay better!
I have a girlfriend that LOVES Oreos and LOVES Coke. I thought this combination would for sure be a big hit with her. But unfortunately it was NOT. She took one smell of the cookie and made this cringy face pushed it away and refused to even try it. Once I convinced her to take a bite she also absolutely was like, that’s gonna be a HARD PASS. And as Kuzco would say, “Me no likey!”.
Wish these came in Oreo THINS.
