Kick off 2017 with the new Winter Frosted Donut and cool offers throughout January

CANTON, MA, 2017-Jan-05 — /EPR Retail News/ — The New Year brings a new espresso beverage choice to keep Dunkin’ Donuts guests energized throughout 2017. Dunkin’ Donuts today (January 3, 2017) unveiled the Americano as a new, permanent addition to its variety of premium, specially crafted coffees and espressos, joining a lineup that includes lattes, macchiatos, Cold Brew coffee and more.  Available now at participating Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants nationwide, the Americano is served hot and combines two shots of Dunkin’ Donuts’ 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified espresso with hot water, creating a bold beverage with a rich, robust flavor.

According to Jeff Miller, Dunkin’ Brands’ Executive Chef and Vice President of Product Innovation, “Americano offers a perfect beverage to begin a new year, bringing forward the pure flavor of Dunkin’ Donuts espresso featuring notes of caramel and chocolate. As our brand continues to expand our variety of premium, specially crafted coffees and espresso choices, we believe Americano will resonate with guests seeking new, innovative beverages to get going and keep going each day.”

With the 2017 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic® on January 2, Dunkin’ Donuts became the official U.S. coffee, donut and breakfast sandwich of the NHL®. What better time for the brand to introduce the Winter Frosted Donut, a sweet winter treat to enjoy with any coffee beverage. Sure to score with donut lovers, the cool new Winter Frosted Donut features a yeast ring donut with winter blue colored icing and drizzled with white icing. It is available at participating Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants nationwide for a limited time.
