On Nov. 1, Dunkin’ began serving customers items on their holiday and winter-themed menu. These items range from a triple chocolate muffin to new coffee flavors that are highly anticipated by Dunkin’ customers.
Below is a list of the new coffee flavors and their rankings:
No. 6 – Brown Sugar Cookie
The brown sugar cookie drink is at the bottom because of its excessive sweetness and graininess in texture. If you want a sweet coffee, ask for your preferred method of making, dairy choice and liquid sugar.
No. 5 – Cookie Butter
While the cookie butter flavor tastes like a cookie, the only way to truly experience the full effect of the drink would be to pay extra for the cold brew, which has the cold foam and cookie crumbles on it.
No. 4 – Toasted White Chocolate
The toasted white chocolate title is truthful for this flavor; however, it is too sweet. Despite that, there is a hint of roasted nuts and the white chocolate combined with that makes this a good choice; just make sure to get one pump to not be overwhelmed by the drink’s sweetness.
No. 3 – Pumpkin Spice
While pumpkin spice is not a new flavor at Dunkin’, it perfectly encapsulates autumn, along with preparing us for winter. This flavor in your coffee could become too sweet if you get many pumps, but with the right amount, it is delicious. For a good milk pairing, get skim milk rather than whole milk so as to not make the drink too thick.
No. 2 – Spiced Cookie
Instead of being a singular flavor, the spiced cookie drink is a combination of three ingredients: brown sugar cookie, unsweetened vanilla and oat milk. On the Dunkin’ app, you can order all three ingredients or look for the drink on the menu page. The method of ordering does not matter, as the drink is delicious. It is not too sweet and actually tastes like a holiday cookie. The only downside is that there is no “spice” as the title indicates, but it is something that can be overlooked.
No. 1 – Peppermint Mocha
While this could be a controversial ranking, peppermint mocha is the top coffee flavor on this list. It must be popular among all Dunkin’ customers, as the menu indicates this flavor is for coffee and hot chocolate. The combination of chocolate, mocha and peppermint is perfectly matched so one ingredient does not overwhelm the others. Get this flavor with a lighter dairy option such as skim milk so it’s not too sweet or too thick.
If you would like to try out any of the drinks listed above before they get taken off the menu, make sure to visit the Dunkin’ at 424 Boston Post Road, also known as the back of Bergami Hall.
