Caramel Swirl Iced Coffee
The Dunkin caramel swirl iced coffee is one of the classic iced beverages that won’t soon go out of style. Freshly ground espresso beans blended with the rich caramel flavoring create a delicacy that is tough to sip as the enticing flavor makes you want to go back for more as soon as you finish with the last drink. Caramel flavoring and sauce take the bitter espresso to the next level. Add some whipped cream as an add-on to turn your iced coffee into a liquid dessert. This cool and creamy caramel swirl iced coffee will keep you going and put you in that Friday mood—even if it’s Monday morning and you’re late for work.
Mocha Iced Coffee
A mocha iced coffee screams bold and fresh as the mocha provides a bitter and robust flavor to a relatively mild iced coffee. Add some milk to the refreshing beverage to add a creamy consistency that complements the bold mocha flavor. While mocha provides a distinctive flavor on its own, you may be inclined to add a shot of sugar to bring the mocha to a new and exciting level. Adding mocha flavoring to your iced coffee is a refreshing way to enjoy bold flavors no matter the time of day. Try the mocha iced coffee from Dunkin’ to get that flavor burst you’re looking for!
Iced Coffee
One of my go-to iced beverages at Dunkin’ is a simple iced coffee. Dunkin iced coffee is full of flavor and hits the spot even without any additional flavoring. Dunkin’ iced coffee provides an energy boost that I often don’t receive with plain hot coffee, as the ice takes the unique coffee taste to a whole new level. There are times where a simple iced coffee needs a little pick me up. In these situations, I like to add a delicious flavor swirl to get that extra bit of sweetness and kick it up a notch.
Cold Brew
Dunkin’ cold brew coffee is 100% Arabica beans steeped in cold water for 12 hours. This process extracts full flavor to create a smooth, full-bodied cold coffee. In my opinion, cold brew coffee isn’t complete without two shots of Hazelnut flavoring and one shot of almond milk. The hazelnut flavoring adds a sweet, nutty flavor, while the almond milk has a creamy texture and enhances the flavor. A cold brew mixed with a classic flavor combines the old and the new as the flavoring is a blast from the past while the cold brew is a relatively new brewing process. Act fast to ensure you can order your cold brew coffee as there are limited quantities daily due to the intensive, slow brewing process.
French Vanilla Swirl Iced Coffee
If you’ve ever had an iced coffee before, you likely have consumed french vanilla-flavored iced coffee. While french vanilla flavored coffee is a classic taste, other coffee shops don’t quite do it as Dunkin’ does. Dunkin adds the perfect amount of the french vanilla swirl to the cup filled with the iced delicacy we know as iced coffee to create an untouchable masterpiece. The classic flavor of the french vanilla mixed with the bold coffee flavor is a classic iced coffee flavor that Dunkin’ masters.
Hazelnut Iced Coffee
The flavor of all flavors that Dunkin’ offers is hazelnut. Hazelnut iced coffee is a nutty, flavorful alternative to a typical iced coffee. As previously mentioned, Dunkin provides coffee lovers the option to customize any coffee to their desired coffee taste. When drinking hazelnut iced coffee, I like to add almond milk and sugar. The almond milk compliments the nutty flavor of the hazelnut, while the sugar gives it a sweetness that is impossible to turn down. If you’re not in the mood for a sweet treat. Leave out the sugar and add whole milk instead of almond milk to create a creamy treat that won’t make you feel guilty for drinking a liquid dessert.
Butter Pecan Swirl
Butter pecan swirl iced coffee is a seasonal favorite only available in the autumn months. Because it is a seasonal flavor, it is vital to get your hands on it while it is still available. The velvety consistency with the nuttiness of the pecan pairs flawlessly with the bitter aspects of the plain iced coffee to create a timely classic. While I’m not a fan of buttery pecan pie, the butter pecan swirl iced coffee from Dunkin’ redeems the name. When the leaves start changing colors and taking a tumble from the tall trees above, it’s time to jump in the car and hit the Dunkin’ drive through to get your hands on a butter pecan swirl iced coffee.
Pumpkin Swirl Iced Coffee
A seasonal delicacy—and my personal iced coffee favorite—is the pumpkin swirl iced coffee from Dunkin. Not only do you get the pop of flavor from the pumpkin, but you also get the sweet addition of the flavoring that makes you want to keep going back for more. While pumpkin spice coffee is popular throughout coffee shops in the autumn months, Dunkin’s pumpkin iced coffee hits a different note as the sweetness of the flavoring doesn’t take over the bitter taste of the coffee. Add a little milk to your pumpkin iced coffee to add a creaminess that mimics grandma’s Thanksgiving pumpkin pie with a dollop of whipped cream on top.
Caramel Mocha Iced Coffee
Two classics—caramel and mocha—are tough to go wrong with in the caramel mocha iced coffee from Dunkin’. This delicious handcrafted iced coffee is one to get you up on your feed and ready to take on the day. The sweet notes of the caramel flavoring and sauce mixed with the bitter, chocolate aspect of the mocha make this iced coffee choice one you will keep coming back to time after time. If you’re looking for a bold yet sweet iced coffee option, consider trying a caramel mocha iced coffee. The two distinctive flavors mixed will give you the energy boost you need to tackle the day ahead of you.
Coconut Iced Coffee
Coconut flavoring has continued to grow in popularity over the past few years. Dunkin’s coconut iced coffee is the perfect blend of the savory coffee flavor we all love mixed with the creamy sweet taste of coconut. Whether you are a coconut milk fanatic or prefer to stick to the more well-known dairy milk, the coconut iced coffee from Dunkin is one you should give a try. Unlike other coconut flavored beverages, this coconut coffee doesn’t have an overpowering coconut flavor that causes the coffee to get lost. I promise if you try a coconut iced coffee from Dunkin, you won’t be disappointed.
Bottled Iced Coffee
Dunkin’s bottled iced coffee is the perfect on-the-go grab-and-drink iced coffee for any occasion. Even if you don’t have a Dunkin’ nearby, you can stop by participating gas stations and pick out your favorite iced coffee flavor with Dunkin’s bottled iced coffee. These coffees come in 13.7 fl. oz. bottles, with flavors consisting of french vanilla, mocha, original, and the new Girl Scout flavors of thin mints, s’mores, and coconut caramel. This bottled iced coffee also comes in 48 oz. bottles to keep stocked in your home fridge for when you have that Dunkin iced coffee craving but can’t currently make it to your local Dunkin’.
