Dunkin’ is embarking on a new venture to provide its caffeine-loving customers with a different kind of experience.

The company is gearing up to introduce a range of spiked iced coffee and teas, aptly named Dunkin’ Spiked.

Although an official launch date has not yet been revealed, Dunkin’ Spiked is already making waves. The flavors of these alcoholic beverages have received label approvals from the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) database, while the Dunkin’ Spiked website is up and running. The spiked iced coffees are set to come in four variants: original, caramel, mocha, and vanilla. The iced teas will be available in flavors like slightly sweet, half & half, strawberry dragonfruit, and mango pineapple.

Dunkin’ Spiked is set to be an enticing option for those looking for a bit of indulgence, with the spiked coffees containing 6% alcohol by volume and the teas having an ABV of 5%. The brand plans to release the products once all flavor varieties have obtained TTB approval.

Packaged in single servings or sets of four and six, the cans will vary in size, with single cans measuring 19.2 ounces and variety packs containing 12-ounce cans with a mix of flavors.

The beverages will be crafted in collaboration with Harpoon Brewery, Dunkin’s long-term brew partner, based in Boston, known for its seasonal beverages.

Israel strikes Tehran after Khamenei’s death; U.S. warns of prolonged conflict as tensions escalate in the Middle East.

Israel has launched a new wave of strikes on Tehran, following the reported killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei. U.S. President Donald Trump has warned the campaign could last up to a month, framing the operation as a move to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear capabilities.

Iran has retaliated with missile attacks, while its Revolutionary Guards claim responsibility for assaults on oil tankers in the Gulf. The escalating hostilities are already disrupting global shipping lanes and air travel, sending shockwaves through international markets.

With reports of the first U.S. casualties emerging and Washington declaring the Tehran operation a success, tensions across the Middle East are intensifying rapidly. The question now is how far this conflict could spread — and at what cost.

U.S. and Israel launch major military operation against Iran; tensions rise as conflict escalates, impacting global markets.

The United States and Israel have launched a sweeping military operation against Iran, striking leadership targets and more than 500 military sites in what President Trump has dubbed Operation Epic Fury.

Explosions have rocked Tehran, with civilians fleeing the capital as U.S. sea and air assets carry out sustained attacks. Washington says the mission is designed to prevent a nuclear armed Iran and has even called on Iranians to rise up against the regime.

Iran has retaliated with a barrage of missiles and drones targeting Israel and U.S. bases across the region, including in Qatar, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. While many projectiles were intercepted, a U.S. base in Bahrain sustained damage.

Gulf states long seen as stable hubs for global business are now directly in the firing line, raising fears of a wider regional war.

Oil prices are climbing and tankers are diverting from the Strait of Hormuz as markets react to the escalating conflict. U.S. aircraft carriers, advanced fighter jets and missile destroyers remain in position, signalling more strikes could follow.

With global leaders scrambling diplomatically, the world is watching to see whether this spirals further or shifts back to negotiations.
