Those who have toked on a terp-heavy dessert strain and wished they could eat it are in luck. Cookies brand, a pioneer of sweet cannabis genetics, has partnered with PLNT Burger on a non-medicated milkshake named and flavored after the iconic strain Crème Brulée.
The Banana Crème Brulée collab shake isn’t just delicious—it’s completely plant-based, Kosher, and Halal. This cannabis-strain-themed milkshake will be available at all New York City PLNT Burger locations on 9/15 at 4:20 pm EST.
Berner, the founder of Cookies Brand, is headed to Manhattan to celebrate the product launch with PLNT Burger co-founders Chefs Mike Colletti and Spike Mendelsohn. It’s all love between the trio who crafted the culinary offering together.
“When Colletti and Spike and I got together, we knew there was something we had to collaborate on and created our first vegan shake. I truly believe this is just the beginning for amazing collabs to come,” Berner said in a press release.
The first 100 guests to order one of the creamy, dairy-free shakes at the NOMAD PLNT Burger location will have the chance to meet Berner and get their shake served in a commemorative cup. Those first 100 visitors will also receive a limited edition PLNT x Cookies shirt.
As for what’s in the cup, expect a creamy helping of vanilla Oatly soft serve, bananas, and vegan caramel, all topped with plant-based whipped cream. The caramel and whip are chef-crafted by Mendelsohn and Colletti, who are excited to collaborate with the cannabis giant.
“Berner is a living legend and good friend of ours,” said Chef Colletti, “The work he has done and the values he has built Cookies on makes them the perfect partner to PLNT Burger.”
Catch a chance to meet Berner at the NOMAD PLNT Burger location (1147 Broadway) at 4:20 pm EST on Friday, 9/15. This inventive cannabis-free collaboration captures brand moments outside the dispensary walls, which helps the plant take another step towards normalization.
