Dunkin's Flavor Shots Vs Swirls: What's The Difference?
BY AUTUMN SWIERS
Dunkin's flavor shots, which are unsweetened and sugar-free, have minimal calories and offer a subtle flavor boost, similar to Monin or Torani brand-flavored coffee syrups.
Flavor shots are thin in viscosity and equipped with a pump dispenser. This popular option adds a pop of flavor to coffees without being overly sweet.
Dunkin's flavor swirls are thicker than flavor shots and have more calories. They have a range of flavors from Gingerbread to Rocky Road and pack a potent flavor.
The differences between the two lie in their texture and ingredients. Swirls contain dairy, adding flavor and creaminess, while the shots are dairy-free.
Dunkin' has seasonal flavor swirls like Peppermint Mocha and Pumpkin Spice, but flavor shots, on the other hand, are year-round, with consistent flavors like vanilla and hazelnut.
