Are Dunkin’s Buckets of Iced Coffee Real? Here’s What We Know
Dunkin is testing 48-ounce beverage buckets at five New England locations to meet demand fueled by a viral TikTok trend for large-format drinks.
- Dunkin is testing a 48-ounce drink bucket at three New Hampshire and two Massachusetts stores, reported on Feb. 25, 2026, according to the chain.
- Massachusetts' long test history and a viral TikTok bucket trend that drew local lines inspired Dunkin, which has previously experimented with bucket-form menu items.
- The 48-ounce bucket features a unique lid and straw and can be filled with Strawberry Dragonfruit Lemonade Refresher , Blueberry Cobbler Iced Latte , or Caramel Coco Iced Coffee .
- Customers are urging expansion as most of the country can’t get the buckets, while social posts on TikTok and other platforms mix praise with caffeine concerns.
- Dunkin has not confirmed a national rollout and the 48-ounce bucket would upend the chain’s former extra large 24 oz size hierarchy.
