CANTON, Mass., July 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- This summer, Dunkin'
Donuts is introducing guests to one of its most significant menu
expansions of the year, as the brand has officially added Fruit
Smoothies and other new frozen beverages as additions to its
lineup. Beginning today, participating Dunkin' Donuts restaurants
will offer two varieties of freshly prepared Fruit Smoothies,
Strawberry Banana and Tropical Mango. At 260 calories or less for a
16 oz. serving, both Smoothies are made with real fruit and creamy
low-fat yogurt.
Dunkin' Donuts' newest beverage offerings also include
the Frozen Dunkaccino®, a frozen version of Dunkin' Donuts'
popular hot Dunkaccino®. The new Frozen Dunkaccino is an
indulgent beverage with a unique blend of mocha and coffee flavors.
Dunkin' Donuts is also serving a new Coolatta® Lite, a
lighter version of Dunkin' Donuts' popular frozen Coolatta®
beverages. Coolatta Lite varieties offer guests lower calorie
versions of the Coolatta, ranging from 33-80% fewer calories for a
Frozen Coffee Coolatta, Minute Maid Orange Coolatta, Strawberry
Coolatta and Vanilla Bean Coolatta, as well as the Summer LTO
Coolatta flavors of Frozen Arnold Palmer Coolatta Lite and Mango
Passionfruit Coolatta Lite.
Dunkin' Donuts' new frozen beverages were introduced in select
markets earlier this year following the installations of new
blenders at Dunkin' Donuts restaurants throughout the U.S. The
rollout will continue through the year. According to Chris Fuqua, Vice President, Dunkin' Donuts
Brand Marketing & Global Consumer Insights & Product
Innovation, the innovative new items are an important step in
reinforcing the brand's beverage leadership. "Unique,
differentiated products that offer consumers greater variety has
been key to our steady, strategic growth and success. Our new
Smoothies and other frozen beverages provide new choices our
on-the-go guests can enjoy anywhere, at any time of day," he
said.
Dunkin' Donuts' newest beverage innovation follows the 2014
introduction of its new Rainforest Alliance Certified™ Dark
Roast Coffee, one of the boldest additions ever to the brand's
coffee lineup. Made with 30% Rainforest Alliance Certified™
beans, Dunkin' Donuts' Dark Roast Coffee uses a unique roasting
process to create a bold flavor and smooth finish without the
bitterness typically associated with most dark roast coffees. For a
sweet twist this summer, Dunkin' Donuts launched iced coffee
featuring the flavors of OREO® or Chips Ahoy!® cookies, as well as
OREO® and Chips Ahoy!® Coolatta® Frozen Beverages with real
cookie mix-ins in every sip.
