The Hottest New Costco Items We've Seen So Far In 2026

A trip to Costco isn't just your run-of-the-mill shopping excursion. It's a combination of treasure hunt (you never know if a bargain is lurking in the next aisle) and grocery lottery (not everything is available where you live), coupled with a swing by the iconic food court for good measure. For card-carrying members and anyone lucky enough to be added to the account, shopping at Costco is a voyage of discovery that never ends. When you think you've seen everything the warehouse store has to offer, along comes a new array of goodies just begging to be snapped up.

The brand behind this lush, summery drink described it in March as "the ultimate pick-me-up," and given how quickly it has flown off Costco shelves since then, shoppers agree. Employees reportedly had to get this customer's box from out the back (though that's not always possible with the way they inventory at Costco), but she still relished her slurp, saying it tasted like "a slushy with cream," while an Instagrammer said it was "absolutely delicious and so refreshing."
