6 Dunkin' Drink Orders All Under 135 Calories
1. Blueberry Iced Green Tea
Green tea presents a myriad of health benefits with every sip— from promoting glowing skin to its ability to assist your gut health . This, Richards says, is due to its high antioxidant contents. Green tea, she explains is a detox tea. "Detox teas can be a great beverage to consume to speed up metabolism and fat burning," she says, as it can help you target your goal of healthy weight loss. "Some of the more popular and effective detox teas are those with a high antioxidant content."
This summer at Dunkin', you can elevate your iced green tea experience with a hint of blueberry flavor. Opting for the unsweetened version aligns better with weight loss goals, yet even with the subtle addition of sugar-free blueberry, a medium-sized drink remains a low - calorie choice at just 10 calories.

2. Raspberry Iced Green Tea
Similarly, infusing your unsweetened medium iced green tea with a hint of raspberry offers a delightful twist, adding just 10 calories without any sugar.
Cowin notes that decaffeinated green tea in particular is a "healthy beverage that can help you reduce weight effectively." "It also provides many health benefits because it is rich in antioxidants, which can help protect your body from harmful toxins," he notes.

3. Iced Toasted Almond/ Hazelnut Latte
Popular TikToker @joanna_kellogg shared a "low-calorie coffee order" that is making waves on the app in a video post . This order is specifically a medium iced original latte with almond milk, one toasted almond shot and one hazelnut shot (both sugar-free) and one Splenda.
In the app, TikTokers noted that this comes to 130 calories. For an occasional treat (and so much less sugar than other orders), this is worth a try for coffee lovers who don't want to pack on the calories!

4. Strawberry Dragonfruit Refresher
Dunkin's low-calorie refresher beverages are crafted with B vitamins and the invigorating energy of green tea. A medium-sized Strawberry Dragonfruit Refresher, for instance, contains precisely 130 calories.
In contrast to other menu options, this drink offers a caffeinated and revitalizing experience with significantly fewer calories and reduced sugar content.

5. Mango Pineapple Refresher
Likewise, the medium Mango Pineapple Refresher at Dunkin' also comes to 130 calories. Due to overwhelming popularity, the Mango Pineapple Dunkin’ Refresher made a triumphant return to the Dunkin' iced beverage menu last year.
This delightful drink blends the tropical tastes of mango and pineapple with a choice of either green tea or coconut milk, both known for their potential weight loss benefits.

6. Butter Pecan Vanilla Cold Brew With Cream
In an engaging TikTok video , popular creator @courtney_mercer shared her "low-calorie, low sugar" Dunkin' order consisting of a medium cold brew, two butter pecan swirls, three sugar-free vanilla shots and one cream. "It has just one thing of cream in there and it's so yummy. When I did the calculations it is under 120 calories."
The social media user also noted that she got this order through the Dunkin' app. Compared to other sugar-laded, heavy latte drinks, this cold brew with flavoring (and you can always add less!) can be a great treat once in a while when you're working towards your weight loss goals.
