Dunkin' debuts Spiked Iced Coffee, Iced Tea in metro Detroit: Where to buy it
A new boozy twist on ready-to-drink coffee and tea drinks from the well-known Dunkin’ brand is now in metro Detroit and Grand Rapids grocery stores.
Dunkin’ entered the alcohol beverage space late last summer across a dozen states. Response to the new drinks, Dunkin said in a news release, was “overwhelmingly positive” and increased demand.
The Dunkin’ line includes Spiked Iced Coffees and Spiked Iced Teas. Touted as “buzz-worthy” drinks, each has four flavors in the line-up.
“We’ve been working hard to meet that demand and are starting the year strong by doubling our retail footprint across the country,” said Brian Gilbert, Vice President of Retail Business Development at Dunkin’ in a statement.
Dunkin’ Spiked Iced Tea signature flavors are Slightly Sweet, Half & Half, Strawberry Dragonfruit Refresher, and Mango Pineapple Refresher. Each has 5% alcohol by volume (ABV).
