Dunkin' Donuts Puts Winter "On Ice" by Heralding First Day of Spring With First-Ever Nationwide "Free Iced Coffee Day"
Dunkin' Donuts Restaurants Across the Country to Offer Free Iced Coffee All Day on March 21

CANTON, MA. (March 1, 2007) - Dunkin' Donuts, the largest coffee and baked goods chain in the world, wants to help customers put winter "on ice." On Wednesday, March 21, the official first day of spring, Dunkin' Donuts will host its first-ever all day, nationwide "Free Iced Coffee Day."

For 24 hours on March 21, customers can visit any participating Dunkin' Donuts restaurant in the country and receive a free 16 oz. cup of Dunkin' Donuts' premium iced coffee, which is double-brewed to ensure full flavor with every cup.


"We look forward to treating everyone to a free cup of our delicious, freshly brewed iced coffee to celebrate the arrival of spring," said Robert Rodriguez, Dunkin' Donuts brand president. "As the category leader, Dunkin' Donuts has been brewing iced coffee for more than 25 years and we are thrilled to be kicking off another iced coffee season with this all day, nationwide event."

Iced coffee is fast becoming as "hot" as the classic cup at Dunkin' Donuts. While iced coffee sales typically spike in summer months, Dunkin' Donuts has seen rapid growth year-round, including during the winter months. Iced coffee is the second most frequently sold product after hot coffee at Dunkin' Donuts.

According to NPD CREST data, Americans drank more than 450 million servings of iced coffee in restaurants in 2006 - a 16 percent increase from 2005 -and Dunkin' Donuts sold more than 150 million servings of iced coffee last year.

Millions of iced coffee lovers turn to Dunkin' Donuts because they recognize the quality of its iced coffee. Dunkin' Donuts has been at the forefront in developing an innovative process for brewing iced coffee, which has set the standard for the industry. The unique process, called double brewing, uses twice the amount of coffee when making the beverage to achieve consistent flavor and freshness that are never compromised at the expense of serving it cold. The result is a smooth, rich taste sensation - iced coffee that is never bitter or watered down.

hey buster...

it's hot hot hot out there.

it's pretty sad when they tell you that the night time temp is expected to be 80 and humid. yuck. long live my a/c and 3 cheers for it being COLD and DEHUMIDIFYING.

and today wasn't the worst of it, the worst is yet to come. my little forecastfox buddy is telling me that it will be 101 tomorrow. and humid. so the heat index will be pushing 109/110. it's gonna suck. yay uncle dunkie (secure site???). it sucked when i left work and the confines of climate control. i opened the door to outside and it was like hitting a brick wall. a sensation i was able to feel again when i left the supermarket.

i thought i might try seeing if i could put together some sort of duct system to move some of the cold air from my a/c into the living room, but after giving it a little thought, i thought better of the idea. it might help a little, but it wouldn't work as well as i'd like, and by the time i got it working the way i'd like, i could buy a 2nd small a/c. so here i sit with a fan blowing on me which is helping. i may move into my bedroom which would make things nicer. at least it's looking like this weekend will be nice.
