The Absolute Best Fast Food Chain Holiday Drink We Tried - Tasting Table
"Created in late 2024 in collaboration with Sabrina Carpenter, the limited-time Brown Sugar Shakin' Espresso from Dunkin' has been winning over fans left and right. While the drink is made with only three ingredients, "sometimes simplicity really is best," declared our taste tester. You get a couple of espresso shots, some oat milk, and a few pumps of brown sugar syrup. All that is hand-shaken with ice to create a simple and delightful drink that fits perfectly into the flavors of the season."
""This drink feels like a sophisticated mocktail rather than your standard coffee drink," described our taste tester. You don't need any fancy holiday toppings, like whipped cream or peppermint crumbles, to make this stand out. The delicate balance of the bold espresso, the silky oat milk, and the brown sugar's molasses-like sweetness creates a drink that deserves to be on the permanent menu. You can still enjoy this holiday creation at your local Dunkin' for a limited time."
"We're not the only ones who have made this our go-to holiday drink for our coffee runs. Many have even said it's one they miss when it's not on the menu and that it tastes better than the Starbucks version. One Redditor declared it "the absolute most superior drink," adding that they are "praying it""
Brown Sugar Shakin' Espresso is a limited-time Dunkin' holiday beverage created in late 2024 with Sabrina Carpenter. The drink combines a couple of espresso shots, oat milk, and brown sugar syrup, all hand-shaken with ice. The flavor profile balances bold espresso, silky oat milk, and molasses-like brown sugar sweetness without requiring holiday toppings. Taste testers described the drink as a sophisticated mocktail and praised its simplicity. Fans compare it favorably to other chains' holiday offerings, miss it when it's off the menu, and many hope it becomes permanent. Availability is limited at Dunkin' locations.
