That can mean only one thing: holiday seasonal menu items are BACK!<\/p>\n<p>With that declaration having been made, it was time for me to venture out to the wilds of my own (literal) backyard and head over to Dunkin&#8217; to see what Santa brought me.<\/p>\n<p>Along with the usual cookie and candy-themed items on offer was something new and distinctly different from the other holiday items: the Berry Sangria Refresher.<\/p>\n<p>If you aren&#8217;t familiar with Dunkin&#8217; Refreshers, they are non-coffee ways to get a nice caffeine boost, in fruit flavors, and they can be mixed with either tea, sparkling water, or lemonade, depending on your particular store&#8217;s selections. I tried both sparkling water and lemonade in the new Berry Sangria flavor so I could compare and contrast for you.<\/p>\n<h3>Sparkling Water Version<\/h3>\n<p>Light, carbonated, and berry-forward, this was an absolute delight to drink. As the name implies, it was very refreshing, with blueberry as the most prominent note, then a gentle mixed berry flavor, and a nice, slightly bitter finishing note that really did remind me of wine.<\/p>\n<p>The sparkling water was an excellent accompaniment to the bold flavors. I thoroughly enjoyed this beverage, and it surprisingly fits in with a holiday-themed menu. It&#8217;s almost enough to make me forgive DD for discontinuing my beloved Halloween <a href= \"https:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2022\/08\/29\/dunkin-blood-orange-refresher-review\/\">Blood Orange Refresher<\/a> a few years back\u2026 almost.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/dunkinbersanrefrser2.jpeg?resize=600%2C750&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"750\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/dunkinbersanrefrser2.jpeg?resize=600%2C750&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/dunkinbersanrefrser2.jpeg?resize=240%2C300&amp;ssl=1 240w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/dunkinbersanrefrser2.jpeg?resize=768%2C960&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/dunkinbersanrefrser2.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Lemonade Version<\/h3>\n<p>While I did like this version, I have to admit I liked the sparkling water one a bit more. Something about the lemonade&#8217;s sweetness detracts from the sangria&#8217;s flavor. That bitter end note was diminished, and the whole drink felt a bit heavier, a bit less refreshing.<\/p>\n<p>That said, it wasn&#8217;t bad at all, and if you like lemonade, this is an interesting new twist on an old classic with a burst of caffeine added\u2014basically, a win in my book.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $3.39 (Sparkling Water), $3.89 (Lemonade)<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> Medium<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 8 out of 10 (Sparkling Water), 7 out of 10 (Lemonade)<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> <strong>Sparkling Water<\/strong> &#8211; 130 calories, 0 grams of total fat, 0 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 15 milligrams of sodium, 32 grams of total carbs, 0 grams of dietary fiber, 20 grams of total sugar, and 0 grams of protein. <strong>Lemonade<\/strong> &#8211; 250 calories, 0 grams of total fat, 0 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 20 milligrams of sodium, 60 grams of total carbs, 0 grams of dietary fiber, 56 grams of total sugar, and 0 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Snowflakes are in the air, turkeys are on sale at the grocery store, and festive decorations are starting to spring up all around my neighborhood.
