Dunkin’ knows you might need something sweet to get you through the cold and dark winter days ahead, which is why its new Winter Menu includes tasty offerings like the new Lava Cake Coffee and new Lava Cake Signature Latte.

Designed to give fans something to look forward to, Dunkin's new Winter Menu will drop on December 31, 2024, New Year's Eve. The new menu will include five tasty beverage options (two of which are in-app exclusive drinks), and two sweet pastries. Highlights from the new beverage menu include the Lava Cake Coffee, which is served hot or iced, and the new Lava Cake Signature Latte, which features a milky latte mixed with a decadent Lava Cake Swirl, and topped with whipped cream, mocha drizzle, and hot chocolate powder. There's also the in-app exclusive Raspberry Lava Cake Latte, which combines Lava Cake Swirl with a raspberry flavor syrup shot.
