Roses are Red, Violets are Blue Dunkin’ Has New Items for You

When searching for the perfect holiday food, Dunkin’ Donuts is not usually the first idea that comes to mind. Believe it or not, their new heart-shaped donuts are the perfect treat for a sweet Valentine’s day snack. A delicious heart-shaped chocolate-frosted donut with a brownie-batter-filled center is enough to make your mouth water. But make sure you save room for the next sweet donut. Cupid’s Choice is a strawberry flavored donut with a Bavarian Kreme filling. Then you can wash it all down with a cocoa mocha iced latte or you can always have a strawberry coconut refresher drink.

There are a lot of sweet treats to try from and for many people, it seems to be very appealing. However, for some people, the new Valentine’s Day drinks just seem to not out beat their usual drink order. Avery Burkett spoke about her opinions on the new items. When Avery was asked if she liked the new holiday drinks, she answered “I honestly do not. Nothing compares to sweet tea. I like saving money, not just buying something like the strawberry drink that they have year-round that is just marked up for the sake of a holiday.” She explained that while she had tried the other drink, it was just not as good as her usual.

On the other side of things, Kiley Hames is a big supporter of the new Dunkin’ special. She went on about how she loves the pink refresher drink and the new Cupid’s Choice donut. She explained that “It is a perfect ratio of strawberry flavoring to sweetness”. The creamy filling and the sweet strawberry frosting definitely go hand and hand. Kiley even said that she loves the donuts so much that she thinks her boyfriend should buy her a dozen for Valentine’s Day.

So are you feeling full yet? Although these sweet treats may not be everyone’s favorite Valentine’s Day snack, for others it is a great way to kick off the season of love. It may only come around once a year, but it is definitely worth the wait. From the soft delicious donuts to the cold refreshing drinks, Dunkin’ has everything you need this season.
