Dunkin’ is celebrating America’s 250th birthday by offering a limited-edition Dunkin’ eagle cup, designed with a clear base topped with a sculpted eagle lid.
“Whether you’re sipping a vibrant Refresher or a classic iced coffee, this collectible turns every drink into a celebration,” Dunkin’ said in a news release.
The cup quickly gained traction online. Even before it appeared in stores, Dunkin’ announced that guests “may have already spotted the eagle cup taking flight across social media.”
“Run to Dunkin’ because today is the day!” Instagram user @rebeldealz captioned a clip showing a visit to Dunkin’ to secure a cup.
Multiple other users on the platform commented on the post, saying they bought several of the cups.
“I also got 3 because they are already reselling on eBay for 50 bucks,” one user wrote.
A Reddit thread focused on users missing out on the limited-edition Barbie pink pineapple cup that Dunkin’ dropped earlier this summer showed many celebrating getting their hands on the eagle cup.
“When the pineapple cup dropped, my job had me away from my usual Dunkin’ (or any Dunkin’ really), and every location I tried after work were long sold out,” one Reddit user wrote. “My job did the same thing to me today, but I managed to get to my morning Dunkin’ spot today and snag one. Hurray.”
Dunkin’ is having fun with the cup’s rollout. A company Instagram post comparing facts about a real eagle with the eagle cup garnered 21,000 likes and more than 400 comments.
“Dunkin’ eagle cup can be spotted across any room,” the Massachusetts-based company wrote alongside a picture of the cup, next to a picture of an actual eagle and the message, “The bald eagle can spot prey from over two miles away.”
“Thankfully, I read this before poking my straw into a bald eagle. Whew,” an Instagram commenter wrote.
Dunkin’ has rolled out a special “star-spangled lineup of limited-time beverages and bakery treats inspired by the flavors, colors and traditions of summer’s biggest holiday,” the company announced. It’s also selling an “Americana-themed summer merch collection.”
“Dunkin’ is bringing the energy of America’s 250th birthday to every part of the menu,” Anthony Epter, vice president of menu innovation at Dunkin’, said in a news release.
“Inspired by Fourth of July traditions, we’ve created a lineup of beverages, bakery treats and the collectible eagle cup that make every Dunkin’ run a little more festive and every sip a celebration.”
The “Star-Spangled Sips and Summer Flavors” features “nostalgic flavors, colorful toppings and indulgent twists,” according to Dunkin’. Some of the offerings include variations of fruity lemonades and a selection of flavored frozen coffees.
The Dazzleberry Coolatta, which is blue-raspberry-flavored, is topped with whipped cream and “patriotic sprinkles.”
Dunkin’s bakery case is filled with limited-time treats, including doughnuts and Munchkins (doughnut holes), dressed in red, white and blue.
The Rocket Pop Donut features “a star-shaped yeast shell with Rocket Pop-flavored filling, topped with blue icing and a stars-and-stripes sprinkle blend,” while the Stars & Stripes Donut is “dipped in blue icing and topped with festive red, white and blue sprinkles.”
The eagle cup is priced at $10.99 and available nationwide while supplies last. Twenty cups are available at each location, according to Dunkin’.
Each eagle cup purchase includes a medium beverage.
