It was only about a week ago that I was sipping on the Pink Spritz Refresher from Dunkin’, but because this is the Summer of Refreshers, we can’t stop there! We now have another pink one to try, Sabrina’s Strawberry Daydream Refresher.

This is Sabrina Carpenter’s second collaboration with Dunkin’, and I’m going to take a wild (strawberry) guess and say it won’t be her last. This iced drink takes the Strawberry Dragonfruit Refresher flavor, adds oat milk, and is topped with sweet cold foam. The commercial features Sabrina working at the Dunkin’ Daydream Hotline (no, you can’t actually call this, although it might have been funny if they’d set one up where she gives you several automated responses). She tells her caller, who is suffering from being “hot,” that they need a Strawberry Daydream Refresher while she grabs said beverage from her desk and proceeds to lose herself in strawberry bliss. So, is this daydream worthy?

My drink arrived looking creamy, pale pink, and topped with an inch or so of foam. Despite the fact that the foam itself is not strawberry flavored, I got a strong whiff of strawberry as soon as I lifted the cup to my face, and that feeling never left. Dunkin’s canned cold foam isn’t built to last, but it does provide a nice topper for a few sips before it melts its way into the rest of the beverage. Are there any fans out there of the Starbucks’ Strawberry Crème Frappuccino? This reminds me of a lighter version of that, if we can call something with 41 grams of sugar “lighter” (the Starbucks drink has 51 grams). Oat milk can vary, but I found whatever brand used here to be creamy and complementary with no weird or unpleasant aftertaste.

There are pops of berry tartness throughout, and I know the nutrition facts say otherwise, but somehow, it really isn’t too sweet. It falls under the “Refresher” umbrella, but if I was parched, I wouldn’t reach for this to quench my thirst. I would, however, be happy to have it as a lazy, slow-sipped afternoon treat. The foam might dissipate early, but this drink retained its ice impressively and, from start to finish, really delivers on the strawberries and cream vibe. If you’re in an extreme sweat, I don’t think this beverage should be your first choice, but if you’re looking to just take a break and drift into a sweet summertime vibe, this won’t disappoint.

Leading up to summer – and definitely when it officially arrives – I think we all have similar goals. We’d like to be doing something that isn’t our daily grind, ideally not sweating our faces off, and sipping on a beverage that transports us to somewhere else. If we have to be where we are and a bit jealous of anyone on a vacation (even if they’re probably wearing a sunburn and more mosquitos than their pictures indicate), we deserve a refreshing drink that promises fizz, fun, and a splash of something extra.

Dunkin’ sees this need and offers us the Pink Spritz Refresher, a fruity mix of guava, passion fruit, and orange served over ice and shaken with sparkling water. Continuing its trend of celebrity endorsements, the ad for this drink features Paige DeSorbo of Summer House fame. Is this worth mentioning? I can’t say because I’m pretty uncool and have never seen that show. I can tell you about the drink though!

I read our recent review of the Tropical Guava Refresher, and when I received my Pink Spritz Refresher, questions immediately formed in my head. My drink was pink-forward in color but also carried an orangey sunset tinge. It looked kind of…familiar. Thirsty and ready to find out what it tasted like, I took a sip and found it pleasantly tart, sweet, and bubbly. I initially thought the flavor of passion fruit came through most with guava coming in second and orange being mostly in the background. As a passion fruit fan, I’m pleased to see that flavor gaining popularity and making more appearances. The overall blend was reminiscent of a tropical punch and sort of made me feel like I was drinking tropical Jolly Ranchers. The sparkling water had the right amount of carbonation, with plenty of crisp bubbles, yet still remained laid-back and not overly bubbly.

As I continued to sip and thought more about what I was tasting, things were leaning in the guava direction. I looked at my Dunkin’ app and checked the ingredients. It turns out that the Pink Spritz Refresher uses the same concentrate as Tropical Guava, but where the Guava version is made with green tea, the Spritz version uses sparkling water. Dunkin’ is calling this the Summer of Refreshers, but in light of this development, perhaps it’s also the Summer of Redundancy? I suppose it was silly of me to think that they’d have two different flavors that both featured guava in the rotation at the same time, but I do feel a bit like the folks at Dunkin’ are trying to pull the sun hat over our eyes. At the price of $3 for a medium all summer long, I can’t be mad about it. The Pink Spritz is true to its refreshing moniker and a very enjoyable thirst quencher if you’re craving something cold and caffeinated to take your tastebuds to the tropics.

If you take your caffeine cold, Dunkin’s newest Refresher promises to wake you up and cool you down with tropical flair. A limited-time summer menu offering, the Dunkin’ Tropical Guava Refresher pairs a green tea base with guava-flavored concentrate for a fruity burst of energy. Also infused with B vitamins to promote energy production, a 24-ounce medium drink contains around 99 milligrams of caffeine.

My Refresher was delivered icy cold and looked like a sunset. The flavor is similarly vibrant: sweet, tart, a little floral, with a realistic guava flavor that tastes to me like a cross between a pear and a strawberry. As someone who has traded in sugary drinks for flavored seltzers (despite a persistent sweet tooth), the sweetness was not a shock to my system. Tartness weaves in and out of the drink, either by design or the way the concentrate is mixed, which prevents it from being consistently either too sweet or too sour.

Most guava-flavored products I know are paired with another fruit flavor, so it was a treat to enjoy something so guava-forward. As the ice dilutes the drink, the tartness fades, and the flavor tastes more like watery strawberry. Icy drinks will water down—such is life—but if you want to prolong the pucker, the lemonade version would also be delicious.

I didn’t detect the flavor of green tea and was not disappointed, because let’s be honest: the tea is merely a vehicle for caffeine and fruity goodness. I do blame the green tea for a drying effect on the tongue—thanks to tannins, if Google is to be believed—which made the drink a little less refreshing than it could have been. I am splitting hairs (slicing guavas thinly?) here, and it feels very “Princess and the Pea” to complain about a slightly dry tongue when I enjoyed this beverage on a day off, lounging about and expending only as much energy as it takes to complete that day’s New York Times Connections puzzle. I would order the standard drink again in a minute, but if I were absolutely parched, I’d consider choosing water as a base.

Whether you are vacationing by the poolside or simply evading life’s responsibilities in the drive-thru, the Dunkin’ Tropical Guava Refresher is one you should guava-tate toward. Depending on your taste preferences, consider swapping bases to customize your own tropical paradise in a to-go cup.
