Would you like to drink 48oz of coffee? That's 6 cups, more than 1/3 of a gallon, and twice the size of an extra large at Dunkin', which is offering the coffee buckets at locations in Massachussets and New Hampshire. Options start at $8.89 for the test product, which one guesses contains about 500mg of caffeine.
Massachusetts is a natural testing ground for Dunkin' — the company has been experimenting in the commonwealth for years. Dunkin' has previously tested new products, such as blueberry cobbler coffee flavor and "ElectroBrew," in Massachusetts. The company also tested Popping Bubble Iced Tea, Sparkling Dunkin' Refreshers, Summer Shandies and Bubble Iced Coffee in 2020.
Here's the list of locations where you can get the buckets:
Massachussets
175 University Drive, in Amherst
214 North Beacon Street, in Bright
359 South Front Street in New Bedford
179 Brighton Avenue, in Allston
317 North Pearl Street, in Brockton
137 Teaticket Highway, in Falmouth
250 South Main Street, in Uxbridge
815 South Main Street, in Bellingham
195 Main Street, in WilmingtonNew Hampshire
2 Dover Road, in Durham
75 Main Street (inside the University of New Hampshire), in Durham
56 Concord Road, in Lee
The FDA estimates toxic effects, such as seizures, may be observed with rapid consumption of around 1,200 milligrams of caffeine. Yay, you can have two! Or you could, had they not already sold out.
Yes, the buckets were real, and it even comes with a giant straw for easier sipping of your iced Dunkin'. But as of Wednesday, a spokesperson confirmed that the Dunkin' buckets of New England's dreams had already sold out after a limited time of being sold at a handful of stores.
Someone posted footage of the bucket to social media. Behold!
