We Tried Everything On Dunkin’s 2026 Summer Menu

Something’s going on with Dunkin’. Maybe it just got into a new relationship or maybe it decided to quit its corporate job and finally follow its dreams. Whatever’s up with America’s favorite coffee-and-donut chain, it’s manifesting itself in the form of an absolutely manic summer menu―and that doesn’t even include the stacked July 4th menu.

My local Dunkin’ manager disclosed that the full summer menu will contain over 40 items and part of the 40-item drop was 16 drinks that launched on July 8th, 2026. And I stopped in the morning of the launch to try every single one (yes, I ruined every employee’s day and I feel really bad about it, thanks for asking). As a whole, the launch was a little quantity-over-quality, but at least the drinks were all the same color scheme. I’d be lying if I said that didn’t satisfy some kind of weird primal urge for uniformity that was lying dormant in my soul for too long. Here’s a glimpse into my favorite drinks, which include a Kylie Jenner collab, some lemon-oat milk concoctions, and a focus on fluffernutter.

Freeze Pop Suncloud Lemonade

This Dunkin’ drink features something the chain dubs “freeze pop syrup.” I had my doubts at first, but they really did it. This Suncloud lemonade is essentially a liquid Bomb Pop. I would have assumed that the addition of oat milk was disastrous, but it works so cohesively, even with the lemon and mystery-fruit, rocket-pop flavor. This is some kind of Dunkin’ sorcery, and also my favorite drink from the launch.

Pink Lemon Drop Suncloud Lemonade

The Suncloud drinks—which all feature oat milk and lemon concentrate—were easily the best of the too-many drinks that came out as part of this legendary launch. The Pink Lemon Drop was delicious with a creamy, lemon-curd taste and just a dollop of strawberry cold foam to give it a gentle layer of fruitiness. The milk made it not too tart, too. This is summer in a plastic cup, truly.

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Iced Coffee

It may not scream “summer,” (honestly, this is more of a winter drink), but the Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Iced Coffee has such a nice balance of mocha and fruit, tamed with a little rich cream. The other strawberry drinks tasted artificial, but this one was like biting into a juicy berry paired with a rush from caffeine.

Candy Pink Lemonade Refresher

This is liquid cotton candy. I expected more of a general fruity taste, but Dunkin’ managed to achieve that indescribable, spun-carnival-candy flavor in this pink Kylie Jenner-themed drink. It’s a must for every July, and with a shot of booze? It’d be the perfect drink to sip at the county fair.

Fluffernutter Cloud Latte

Of all the fluffernutter drinks, this was the one with the most staying power, especially considering Dunkin’s Massachusetts roots. Avoid Dunkin’s protein milk version of this bevvy and opt for the latte. You’ll enjoy a gentle marshmallow flavor, lots of nutty peanut butter, and plenty of coffee to balance everything out with just the right amount of acidity.
