The temperatures are rising, the tank tops are coming out and we’re keeping our eyes peeled for summer’s new fast food items. Dairy Queen has revealed its summer Blizzards and we shared an exciting announcement from Taco Bell, but now, the Dunkin’ summer menu is ready to join the party.
We heard that favorites like the Butter Pecan Iced Coffee and the full-bodied Sunrise Batch Iced Coffee will be returning to the menu for the season, but of course, there’s more! Dunkin’ is dropping new drinks, new snacks and a brand-new doughnut.
What’s on the Dunkin’ Summer Menu?
Mango Pineapple Refresher
Things are getting hot in here! With warmer weather, Dunkin’ Refreshers are back on the menu. The latest addition is the Mango Pineapple Refresher—a concoction of two delicious tropical flavors combined with your choice of Green Tea, Coconutmilk or Lemonade. Strawberry Dragonfruit and Peach Passionfruit are still featured from earlier, too.
Cake Batter Latte
Rumor has it that loyal Dunkin’ customers have been using secret menu hacks for years to get that perfect cake batter flavor, and the company just decided to make it easier for us. The drink features rich espresso combined with crave-worthy cake batter flavor, topped with whipped cream, mocha drizzle and obviously, rainbow sprinkles.
Tomato Pesto Grilled Cheese
We love our coffee, but we need something to munch on as well. This classic Italian-inspired sandwich features oven-roasted tomatoes, a bright, nut-free pesto and melted white cheddar. It’s all wrapped in sourdough bread to create a truly artisanal treat.
Cornbread Doughnut
We don’t know about you, but cornbread is definitely one of our favorite Southern recipes. Dunkin’ turned it into a doughnut, featuring a sweet-and-savory corn cake base topped with their signature glaze. Of course, you can get the flavor as Munchkin doughnut holes, too.
Make sure you check out the Dunkin’ fall menu.
When Can I Get These?
The Dunkin’ summer menu items are available right now, so head straight to the drive-thru! You can catch us sipping on that Mango Pineapple Refresher allllll summer long.
