Dunkin' Donuts is expanding its menu by crafting a new choice for those who prefer their coffee cold. The company announced that Cold Brew coffee is now available at participating Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in the Metro New York and Los Angeles markets. The rich, smooth, full-bodied Cold Brew coffee, crafted by hand in Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in small batches and served each day while supplies last, will be available at participating Dunkin' Donuts locations throughout the country later this summer.

Dunkin' Donuts' Cold Brew coffee is prepared by steeping a special blend of coffee in cold water over an extended period of time to extract a uniquely distinctive flavor from the beans. Cold Brew coffee's ultra-smooth and naturally sweet flavor profile lends itself to being enjoyed black, but is customizable based on guest preference. Dunkin' Donuts' Cold Brew coffee is available in small, medium and large cup sizes.

According to The NPD Group / CREST®, Dunkin' Donuts is the number one retailer in the iced coffee category in the United States.

"As the country's leader in cold coffee, we are constantly exploring new options, inspired by market trends and guest and crew feedback, in order to provide our busy, on-the-go guests with even more options any time of day," said Chris Fuqua, Senior Vice President, Dunkin' Donuts Brand Marketing, Global Consumer Insights & Product Innovation. "Our new Cold Brew coffee is made daily in small batches and the longer brewing process extracts the flavors differently than our famous iced coffee, providing our guests a rich, smooth coffee with an inherently sweeter flavor reminiscent of dark chocolate."
