A Dunkin' calories calculator estimates the calories, sugar, fat, protein and caffeine of a custom Dunkin' order. As you choose a drink, size, milk, flavor swirls and any food, it adds everything up in real time, so you can see the totals before you order and compare options against your calorie, sugar or caffeine goals.
A medium hot Dunkin' coffee has about 210 mg of caffeine, a medium iced coffee about 297 mg, and a medium cold brew about 260 mg. Lattes are lower at roughly 150 mg, while each extra espresso shot adds about 118 mg.
Caffeine per medium drink, based on widely published Dunkin' data. The FDA considers up to 400 mg a day safe for most healthy adults — a single large iced or frozen coffee can use most of that.
Values are for medium sizes and vary by location and preparation. Decaf still contains a small amount (about 7–15 mg).

A flavor swirl adds ~110–210 cal and 22–42 g sugar by size; an unsweetened flavor shot adds almost none.
≈ 15 cal, 0 g sugar, 297 mg caffeine. Add a flavor shot for taste with no sugar.
Whole milk + 1 swirl ≈ 360 cal, 47 g sugar, 151 mg caffeine.
≈ 90 cal, ~2 g sugar — the same flavor, a fraction of the sugar.
≈ 396 mg caffeine — near the FDA's 400 mg daily limit in one cup.
Bacon wake-up wrap + skim latte ≈ high protein for the calories.
≈ 600+ cal, 80+ g sugar — more a dessert than a coffee.
Donut ≈ 240 cal, 12 g sugar; black coffee adds almost nothing.
Espresso with a splash of cream, no sugar — very low carb, high caffeine.
The coffee itself is almost never the problem. A black hot or iced coffee is around 5–15 calories with no sugar. What turns a coffee into a 400-calorie drink is everything added to it: milk or cream, flavor swirls, added sugar, and whipped cream. Understanding those four levers — and which one you're pulling — is the whole skill of ordering well at Dunkin', and it's exactly what this calculator makes visible as you build.
Your milk choice is the quiet calorie decision. In a latte-style drink, whole milk adds around 200 calories, while skim drops that to about 110 and unsweetened almond milk to roughly 80 with almost no sugar. Oat milk tastes rich and foams beautifully but is closer to whole milk in calories and higher in sugar. Cream is the heaviest by far. For a regular coffee it's only a splash, so the difference is smaller — but in a latte, the milk is most of the drink.
This is the single most useful thing to know about Dunkin'. A flavor swirl (caramel, mocha, French vanilla and so on) is sweetened and adds roughly 110–210 calories and 22–42 grams of sugar depending on size. A flavor shot is unsweetened and adds essentially no calories or sugar — just flavor. Swapping a swirl for a shot can remove 30+ grams of sugar from a single drink while keeping the taste you ordered it for. If you change one thing, change this.
Black coffee has zero sugar, but signature and frozen drinks can exceed 80 grams — more than a full day's recommended limit in a single cup. The American Heart Association suggests keeping added sugar under about 25 grams a day for women and 36 for men, so one sweet frozen coffee can blow past that on its own. The calculator flags when your order crosses into high-sugar territory so there are no surprises.
Caffeine is where Dunkin' differs from many chains — the brewed coffee is strong. A medium hot coffee is about 210 mg, a medium iced coffee about 297 mg, and a large iced coffee nearly 400 mg, which is the FDA's suggested daily limit for healthy adults in one cup. Espresso drinks like lattes are actually lower, around 150 mg for a medium, because they're built on one or two shots. Each extra shot adds roughly 118 mg. If you're sensitive to caffeine or drink more than one coffee a day, the caffeine meter is worth watching.
On the food side, protein and calories vary widely. A wake-up wrap is a light ~200-calorie option, while a bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant can run past 600 because of the buttery pastry. Bagels are calorie-dense at around 320 before cream cheese; muffins are effectively cake, often 450–590 calories. Donuts are a treat at roughly 240–360 each. None of this is off-limits — it's about knowing the trade so you can spend your calories where they matter to you.
For weight loss, protect your calorie and sugar budget: order coffee black or with skim or almond milk, use an unsweetened flavor shot instead of a swirl, and skip whipped cream and added sugar. That keeps most drinks under 100 calories. If you want food, a wake-up wrap or an egg-white bite option gives protein without a pastry's calories. The drinks are where people accidentally drink hundreds of calories, so fixing the drink is the highest-impact move.
Coffee isn't a protein source, but milk is — skim and whole milk each add around 10–11 grams in a latte's worth. Pairing a latte made with dairy milk with a protein-forward breakfast item is the simplest way to turn a Dunkin' run into a balanced meal. If you're building toward a protein goal, the calculator's protein readout and macro donut show how your choices add up.
A keto-friendly Dunkin' order is very doable: choose black coffee, an americano or espresso, add a splash of heavy cream, and use a sugar-free flavor shot rather than a swirl. This keeps carbohydrates near zero while giving you a rich, flavored coffee. The things to avoid are swirls, frozen drinks, oat milk and added sugar, all of which push carbs up quickly.
A handful of swaps do most of the work: trade a flavor swirl for an unsweetened shot to cut 30+ grams of sugar; choose skim or almond milk over whole or cream; skip the whipped cream; drop a size; and go easy on added sugar. Each is small on its own, but together they can turn a 450-calorie sugar bomb into a satisfying drink under 100 calories — without giving up your favourite flavour.

A medium hot Dunkin' coffee has about 210 mg of caffeine, a medium iced coffee about 297 mg, and a medium cold brew about 260 mg. Espresso drinks like lattes are lower, around 150 mg for a medium, while macchiatos and americanos are higher. Each extra espresso shot adds roughly 118 mg.
A medium iced coffee ordered black is only about 15 calories. The calories come from what you add: cream, whole milk, flavor swirls and sugar. A medium iced coffee with cream and a caramel swirl can climb to 250–350 calories, mostly from sugar. Choosing skim or almond milk and a flavor shot instead of a swirl keeps it low.
A flavor shot is unsweetened and adds almost no calories or sugar — just flavor. A flavor swirl is sweetened and adds around 110–210 calories and 22–42 grams of sugar depending on size. Swapping a swirl for a shot is the single easiest way to cut sugar and calories from a Dunkin' drink while keeping the flavor you want.
Black hot or iced coffee, an unsweetened americano, and plain tea are the lowest at around 5–15 calories. An espresso is similar. If you want milk and flavor without the sugar, add almond or skim milk and an unsweetened flavor shot, which keeps a drink well under 100 calories while still tasting like your favourite.
It varies enormously. Black coffee has none, but signature and frozen drinks can exceed 80 grams of sugar — more than a day's recommended limit. The biggest sources are flavor swirls, the sweet bases in frozen coffees and Coolattas, and added sugar. Choosing unsweetened flavor shots and fewer pumps of sugar makes the biggest difference.
Plain Dunkin' coffee is essentially calorie-free and fine in moderation; the concerns come from added sugar and, for some people, caffeine. A large iced coffee or frozen coffee can approach or exceed the FDA's 400 mg daily caffeine limit in one cup. Ordering lower-sugar customizations and watching your total caffeine keeps Dunkin' an easy fit in a healthy diet.
Caffeine figures are based on widely published Dunkin' data by drink and size, and calorie and macro estimates use an additive model of the base drink, milk, swirls and add-ons. Because recipes, pours and portions vary by location, treat the results as close estimates. This is an independent tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Dunkin'.
The FDA considers up to 400 mg of caffeine a day safe for most healthy adults — roughly two medium hot Dunkin' coffees, or a single large iced coffee plus a little more. Pregnant people are usually advised to stay under 200 mg. Caffeine sensitivity varies, so if you feel jittery or have trouble sleeping, use the caffeine meter to keep your daily total in check.
For fewer calories and sugar, unsweetened almond milk is the lightest at about 80 calories and 1 gram of sugar in a latte's worth. Skim milk is low in fat but keeps the protein of dairy. Oat milk tastes rich but is closer to whole milk in calories and higher in sugar. The "healthiest" choice depends on whether you're prioritising calories, protein or avoiding dairy.
An unsweetened latte's calories come almost entirely from milk. A medium latte is roughly 190 calories with whole milk, about 110 with skim, and around 90 with almond milk. Adding a flavor swirl pushes it up by 110–210 calories and a lot of sugar. To keep a latte light, choose a lower-calorie milk and an unsweetened flavor shot instead of a swirl.
Refreshers are made with green tea and fruit concentrate, so a medium is moderate in calories (around 120–190) but does contain sugar, typically 20–40 grams. They have less caffeine than coffee, about 99 mg for a medium. They're a lighter choice than a frozen coffee but not sugar-free — check the sugar readout if you're watching your intake.
For a balance of protein and lower calories, a wake-up wrap or an egg-based sandwich on an English muffin beats a croissant or bagel, which are far higher in calories and refined carbs. Pair it with a black or low-calorie coffee. Muffins and donuts are treats rather than everyday breakfasts. As always, protein and portion size are what make a choice filling.
Absolutely. Order your coffee unsweetened, use an unsweetened flavor shot instead of a swirl, choose almond or skim milk, and skip whipped cream and added sugar. This can take a drink from 40+ grams of sugar down to just a gram or two from the milk. The calculator shows the sugar drop instantly as you make each swap.
