Starting March 4, the chain is reportedly rolling out its Spring 2026 menu. And at the center of the launch is Dunkin\u2019s new banana syrup and banana cold foam, which can be added to almost any drink.<\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"instagram\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-16\" data-node-id=\"1\" class=\"embed\"\/>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"2\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Among the standout new menu items:<\/p>\n<ul data-node-id=\"3\" class=\"css-kw9lqy emevuu60\">\n<li data-node-id=\"3.0\"><strong data-node-id=\"3.0.0\">Banana Puddin\u2019 Cloud Latte<\/strong>, topped with banana cold foam<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"3.1\"><strong data-node-id=\"3.1.0\">Monkey Business Cloud Latte<\/strong>, made with butter pecan swirl and banana foam<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"3.2\"><strong data-node-id=\"3.2.0\">Berry Daydream Refresher<\/strong>, with oatmilk and sweet cold foam<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"3.3\"><strong data-node-id=\"3.3.0\">Banana Daydream Refresher<\/strong>, customizable with banana foam<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"3.4\"><strong data-node-id=\"3.4.0\">Banana Shakin\u2019 Espresso<\/strong>, with oatmilk and banana syrup<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"3.5\"><strong data-node-id=\"3.5.0\">Bananarama Matcha Latte<\/strong>, blending matcha and banana syrup<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"3.6\"><strong data-node-id=\"3.6.0\">Wedding Cake Munchkins<\/strong>, blueberry-glazed with sprinkle coating<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"4\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Aside from the many banana-based drink iterations, the brand is also introducing new Dunkin\u2019 Zero energy drinks, which clock in at just 20 calories and 145 milligrams of caffeine in a medium, meaning they\u2019re clearly coming for the \u201cI need energy but not a crash\u201d crowd.<\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"watch-next\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-17\" data-node-id=\"5\" class=\"embed\"\/>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"6\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">You can also expect expanded options for Berry Acai Refreshers, which can now be mixed with everything from lemonade and tea to protein milk and sparkling water. Translation: Dunkin\u2019 wants you to choose your own beverage adventure.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"7\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">But as soon as insiders teased the Dunkin\u2019 news on Instagram, the comment section turned into a full-blown debate.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Some fans were immediately obsessed. One user wrote, \u201cBanana cold foam??? Take my money.&#8221; Several people said they were already planning to try the Banana Puddin\u2019 Latte on day one, calling it \u201cdessert in a cup.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"9\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Others, however, were\u2026less convinced.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"10\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">\u201cI don\u2019t want my coffee tasting like a smoothie,\u201d one commenter joked. Another wrote, \u201cWhy is everything banana now?\u201d while someone else added, \u201cI miss when spring meant just vanilla and caramel.\u201d A few longtime fans also begged Dunkin\u2019 to bring back past favorites instead of adding more experimental flavors.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"11\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Still, that split reaction kind of feels like the point. Dunkin\u2019 has been leaning harder into bold, customizable, social-media-friendly drinks, and this menu fits right into that strategy. Banana isn\u2019t exactly a \u201csafe\u201d coffee flavor, but paired with cold foam, matcha, butter pecan, and oatmilk, it\u2019s clearly meant to spark curiosity and conversation.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"12\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Dunkin\u2019s Spring 2026 menu isn\u2019t playing it subtle. And starting March 4, your local Dunkin\u2019 is about to smell a lot more like a smoothie shop than a coffee counter.<\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"editorial-link\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-18\" data-node-id=\"13\" class=\"embed\">\n<aside class=\"css-fcvumo e94w1mj1\"\/><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Points AI-assisted, editor-approved summary Dunkin\u2019s Spring 2026 menu featuring banana-flavored drinks, including the Banana Puddin\u2019 Cloud Latte and Monkey Business Cloud Latte with butter pecan, is launching March 4.
