Cookie Butter and Toasted White Chocolate are returning to Dunkin on November 4, 2026, with ten announced holiday drinks built around coffee, tea and hot chocolate. The useful choice starts underneath the festive toppings: four of those drinks have no announced coffee base, but their tea or cocoa still supplies caffeine.
Dunkin’s October 28 holiday announcement sets a limited-time U.S. launch at participating restaurants, while supplies last. A separate Avengers collection starts the same day. Here is how the drinks fit together, including the difference between avoiding coffee and avoiding caffeine.
The ten confirmed holiday drinks
The Cookie Butter family has six announced builds:
Cookie Butter Cloud Latte: espresso and milk, with Cookie Butter Cold Foam and crumbles.
Cookie Butter Cloud Dunkalatte: espresso and coffee milk, finished with Cookie Butter Cold Foam.
Cookie Butter Hot Chocolate: a hot-chocolate base with whipped cream and crumbles.
Cookie Butter Matcha: sweetened matcha and whole milk.
Iced Cookie Butter Oat Chai Latte: chai with oatmilk.
Spiced Cookie Iced Coffee: iced coffee with oatmilk.
The Toasted White Chocolate lineup adds four:
Toasted White Chocolate Cloud Latte: espresso and whole milk with Sweet Cold Foam.
Toasted White Chocolate Signature Latte: espresso and whole milk, topped with whipped cream, caramel drizzle and cinnamon sugar.
Almond White Chocolate Shakin’ Espresso: a double espresso with oatmilk and toasted almond flavor.
Raspberry White Chocolate Matcha: sweetened matcha, whole milk and raspberry flavor.
Those are different drink formats, rather than ten interchangeable versions of a latte. Reading the base before the topping makes it easier to find the one you actually want.
The six coffee-based holiday drinks are Cookie Butter Cloud Latte, Cookie Butter Cloud Dunkalatte, Spiced Cookie Iced Coffee, Toasted White Chocolate Cloud Latte, Toasted White Chocolate Signature Latte and Almond White Chocolate Shakin’ Espresso. The other four use cocoa in Cookie Butter Hot Chocolate, matcha in Cookie Butter Matcha and Raspberry White Chocolate Matcha, and chai in Iced Cookie Butter Oat Chai Latte. All ten use caffeine-bearing bases; seasonal amounts are unverified.
Four choices skip coffee, but still contain caffeine
The four non-coffee choices are Cookie Butter Hot Chocolate, Cookie Butter Matcha, Iced Cookie Butter Oat Chai Latte and Raspberry White Chocolate Matcha. That is a useful list if you dislike coffee’s flavor. It is not a caffeine-free shortlist.
The FDA identifies coffee, tea and chocolate as caffeine sources. Matcha is tea; chai uses a tea base; hot chocolate contains cocoa. A drink can therefore leave espresso out of the recipe and still contain caffeine. The holiday name tells you the flavor theme, not the caffeine category.
The Dunkalatte deserves an extra glance. Its announced build contains espresso and coffee milk. Dunkin’s ingredient guide identifies coffee extract in the generic Dunkalatte’s coffee milk. Treat that milk as another coffee-containing component, rather than assuming it is ordinary milk with a comforting name. Removing an espresso shot would not, by itself, establish that the remaining drink is caffeine-free; this guide does not verify that customization.
What the available records do not establish is an exact caffeine dose for each new seasonal drink and size. Dunkin’s reviewed nutrition guide and ingredient guide are dated September 21, before the holiday announcement. A generic matcha or latte value should not quietly become a measured value for a new seasonal build.
For a caffeine decision, the base map is a starting point. Check the current exact product and size when ordering. No seasonal milligram ranking, caffeine-free substitution or tested decaf version is promised here.
The Avengers menu is a separate collection
Dunkin’s October 6 Avengers announcement names six additional drinks for November 4:
Iced Captain’ccino: espresso, caramel flavor and coffee milk.
Clobbered Cloud Latte: espresso, whole milk and toasted white chocolate, with Cookie Butter Cold Foam and crumbles.
Wakandan Daydream Refresher: Berry Clementine Refresher, raspberry flavor and oatmilk, with Purple Marshmallow Cold Foam.
Optic Blast Lemonade: lemonade with blue raspberry flavor.
Doom’s Orders Energy: Green Apple Dunkin’ Zero, sparkling water and Purple Marshmallow Cold Foam.
Doom Cloud Latte: espresso, whole milk, mocha and vanilla, with Sweet Cold Foam and cocoa powder.
Some flavors overlap, especially in the Clobbered Cloud Latte. The names still belong to a separately announced collection. Keeping the two lists distinct prevents a character drink from being mistaken for a renamed Cookie Butter or Toasted White Chocolate drink.
The holiday map above covers the ten holiday drinks only. It does not establish caffeine amounts for the Avengers drinks, or classify that entire collection as caffeine-free.
Order by the build that matters to you
Start with coffee, matcha, chai or hot chocolate; then choose the seasonal flavor and finish. A Cloud Latte and a Signature Latte can share an espresso-and-milk base while having different toppings. The coffee milk in a Dunkalatte is a separate distinction worth noticing before making changes.
The announced milk is also only part of a drink’s ingredient picture. Oatmilk in a base does not establish that every syrup, foam or topping meets a dietary requirement. Use current product and allergen information for that decision rather than treating a short menu description as a complete ingredient declaration.
Availability is local and limited. Dunkin has announced November 4 as the start, not a guarantee that every restaurant will carry every item throughout the season. The app, drive-thru and counter are ordering routes; the participating restaurant’s current menu is the practical check for the drink you want.
There is plenty of seasonal spectacle here. The most useful detail is simpler: the flavor on the cup and the base in the cup answer different questions.
