Smash or Pass: Dunkin’s New Spiked Peppermint Mocha Iced Latte?

Dunkin’ is taking holiday vibes to the next level with its new boozy creation: the limited-edition Dunkin’ Spiked Peppermint Mocha Iced Latte. Following the fall success of its Spiked Pumpkin Spice Iced Latte, the coffee chain has mixed up another festive flavor with a grown-up twist. But does it bring the holiday buzz or fall flat?

This ready-to-drink delight blends real coffee with cool peppermint, rich mocha, and a non-dairy creamer that’s both vegan and lactose-intolerant friendly—all served at a solid 6% ABV. Whether you pour it into a martini glass at your holiday gathering or enjoy it over ice by the fireplace, it promises a new way to add cheer to your celebrations. You can find this holiday-inspired beverage at grocery and package stores across 28 states, making it easy to grab a 4-pack of 12 oz. cans to elevate your seasonal festivities.

On the plus side, peppermint mocha lovers get a convenient way to indulge in their favorite flavors with an adult twist. No mixing or barista skills needed—just crack open a can and sip. And if you’re lactose-intolerant or vegan, the non-dairy creamer means no missing out. But beware: some traditionalists might find the boozy element a bit much, and if you’re outside the distribution zone, getting your hands on a pack might take some effort.

For those who aren’t feeling peppermint vibes, Dunkin’s year-round Spiked Iced Coffee flavors like Original, Caramel, Mocha, and Vanilla are still available at 6% ABV. So, whether you’re grabbing a variety pack or sticking with a classic single-serve, there’s a little buzz for every Dunkin’ fan.
