In case springtime couldn't get any better, the Dunkin' spring menu finally arrived! It dropped on February 21 with tons of new drinks and snacks to enjoy as the weather warms up. Below, I'm rounding up all the tasty picks that you can order for yourself, friends, and family this season!
As we turn the page to a new season (hellooo, spring!), I'm happy to be transitioning winter menus full of hearty comfort foods to lighter options like fresh pasta salads and filling galettes. Popular fast food joints are doing the same: Starbucks' spring menu welcomed lavender, and Dunkin' is ushering in more fruit-forward bevs!
Here's a peek at the full Dunkin' spring menu, including new drinks and food items. Keep reading for an honest review of the new drinks + snacks, plus the epic rewards savings you can take advantage of through April!
Drinks On The Dunkin' Spring Menu
NEW! Berry Burst SPARK'D Energy
If you're looking for a new way to power your day (that's not coffee), you need to check out Dunkin's new SPARK'D Energy drinks. There are two fruity flavors available – Berry Burst and Peach Sunshine – and each one is sparkling and perfectly fizzy!
The Berry Burst option (pictured above) carries sweet notes of raspberry and strawberry.
“America turns to Dunkin’, from sunrise to sunset, to help them power through their day,” said Beth Turenne, Dunkin’s Vice President of Category Management. “With the introduction of SPARKD’ Energy by Dunkin’, we set out to create a deliciously unique option for our guests. It’s not just another energy drink; it’s a totally new way to run on Dunkin’, incorporating the flavors that we know our fans enjoy.”
A small SPARK'D drink has 96mg of caffeine and 18g of sugar. The medium size has 144mg of caffeine and 27g of sugar. The large size has 192mg of caffeine and 37g of sugar.
My first sip of this sparkling drink was super sour! It honestly made me pucker up, but I was sipping smoothly after a minute or so. Equally sweet, the Berry Burst SPARK'D Energy bev is most satisfying for its fresh fizz! I thought the bubbles were just fun and the fruity flavor definitely made my day feel a little bit more spring-like. 10/10!
NEW! Peach Sunshine SPARK'D Energy
Next up on the Dunkin' spring menu! Meet Peach Sunshine. This SPARK'D Energy drink is the perfect reflection of the spring season (yay, warm weather!), with notes of lychee and peach in every sparkling sip.
I didn't care for the Peach Sunshine SPARK'D Energy drink as much. I thought that the aftertaste gave me medicine vibes, like the nasty flavored cough syrups they give you as a kid! I could only really make it a few sips in before giving up on this dev. Maybe the flavor just isn't for me! 5/10.
NEW! Churro Signature Latte
I love churros with every fiber of my being, truly. That's exactly why this new Signature Latte on the Dunkin' spring menu is so freakin' scrumptious!
The Churro Signature Latte blends a dose of sweet churro flavoring, rich espresso, and milk, all topped off with whipped cream, caramel drizzle, and cinnamon sugar. You can order it iced or hot.
The Churro Signature Latte was 1000% the best part of the Dunkin' spring menu. It was so sweet (just how I like it) and creamy. Plus, a little whipped cream here and there just makes me feel special. This churro bev was definitely emitting big churro vibes before I even drank it – it smelled like a churro, and therefore, made me crave churros. 10/10!
NEW! Cinnamon Vanilla Coffee
Some days you want iced coffee, but others, you want something hot. The Cinnamon Vanilla Coffee on the Dunkin' spring menu is the ultimate pick for ordering at different temps. Available iced or hot, this brewed coffee is crafted with churro and vanilla syrups, then customized with as much cream or milk as you'd like.
I taste-tested the iced version of the Cinnamon Vanilla Coffee and adored it. Though it wasn't nearly as sweet as the churro latte or the berry energy drink, I concluded that it might be a nice drink option when you're not opting for sugary stuff. It has a light kick of coffee (a bit lighter than I'd prefer), but gets the job done. 7/10.
Food Items On The Dunkin' Spring Menu
NEW! Breakfast Empanada
Grab-and-go breakfasts have met their match with the all-new Breakfast Empanada from Dunkin'! This portable little pocket of food is packed to the brim with melty, cheesy goodness: scrambled eggs, sausage, and melty cheddar huddle together inside a flaky, buttery crust that you can easily hold in your hand (and snack on) on your way to work or the gym.
I had high hopes for the Breakfast Empanada, but it let me down. It was far too bready with not enough filling. When I eat a pocket of food, I want there to be some substance! Nonetheless, my bites that had a more ideal breading to filling ratio were tasty and the food smelled good. 5/10.
NEW! Banana Chocolate Chip Bread
Banana bread, in my mind, is a no-brainer when it comes to snacks you can eat with coffee. This tender and chocolatey loaf joined the Dunkin' spring menu just in time for National Banana Bread Day on February 23. It's served sealed and pre-packaged so it can retain its moisture.
The Banana Chocolate Chip Bread is unarguably the best food item on the Dunkin' spring menu. It was moist, chocolatey, and banana-y, which, like, what more could you want from banana bread?! I enjoyed that the snack was packed in a sealed bag for portability. 10/10.
NEW! Churro Donut
To accurately echo two of the new spring drinks, the Signature Churro Latte and the Cinnamon Vanilla Coffee, Dunkin' introduced the Churro Donut to their bakery selection. This textured ring donut is rolled in bouts of cinnamon sugar after being deep-fried to absolute perfection. The inside is soft and pillowy – the best contrast to the sugary exterior!
