Who doesn’t love starting their day with a nice, freshly brewed cup of coffee? Whether you’re a fan of brewing coffee in a pot or using a Keurig, sometimes it’s nice to treat yourself on a rough morning by opting to buy a coffee beverage from a local coffee shop or chain.
One of the most delicious, and most common coffee chains in the U.S is Dunkin’. Now, they are definitely known for their delicious sweet treats such as donuts, croissants, and other food items.
However, their iced coffee drinks are extremely successful as well. If you ever need the perfect amount of a flavorful caffeine pick me up, here are some little insider tips on what exactly goes into your Dunkin’ iced coffee order.
Now, there are four sizes of iced coffee to order. There is small, medium, large, and extra large. Each size correlates with a number and with an amount of each ingredient that gets added. For example, if you order a small vanilla iced coffee with cream, your coffee order will include the pre-brewed iced coffee, a cup filled with ice, two splashes of cream, and two pumps of vanilla flavoring.
However, if you order a medium, you get 3 splashes of cream and 3 pumps of flavoring. The number of splashes of cream and flavor keeps on increasing by one as you go up in size, and so does sugar.
One important tip to note is that the flavorings, or swirls as they are called, already come very sweet. Therefore, if you don’t want your drink to be overridden with sugar and sweetness, choose to forgo the extra sugar.
Instead of ordering a medium mocha iced coffee with skim milk and sugar, order a medium mocha iced coffee with skim milk. Skip the added sugar and your drink will surely taste plenty sweet with the three syrupy pumps of mocha flavoring that comes with your medium order.
Dunkin donuts iced coffee is an amazing morning or afternoon treat and can be just as enjoyable without the addition of extra sugar.
