Always popular, the Dunkin Donuts Coffee Coolatta is an easy way to enjoy a cool coffee drink at home.
There are few things that I enjoy more than a good cup of Joe. Now take that cup-o-Joe and make it frozen and I am in heaven. I enjoy a hot cup of coffee in the morning but by the afternoon and into the evening I crave something cold. This Dunkin Donuts copycat coffee coolatta always hits the spot and is so easy to make at home.
The coffee coolatta has been around since the late 1990s but has recently become a mainstay in the Dunkin Donuts industry. They have a couple of different varieties – ranging from everyday coffee all the way to an Oreo flavored coolatta. They debuted the Oreo variety to celebrate the 100th year of the famous cookie. Cookies AND coffee? That sounds perfect.
I’m sharing the recipe for an original coffee coolatta. It’s simple to make, and I bet you have most of the ingredients on hand. You start with a coffee base, add some flavoring, a little milk, some ice to make it extra cold and blend. It doesn’t get much easier than whipping up one of these frosty drinks at home!
I think the key to this coolatta is the hazlenut syrup. It adds sweetness and a little bit of nutty flavor to the coffee. Hazelnut syrup can be found at most grocery stores, or you could substitute a little hazelnut coffee creamer.
Love these coffee house favorites be sure to try some of these coffee favorites.

July 21, 2016 at 11:32 pmCan I use another flavour syrup than the hazelnut one as I have a nut allergy?
Would love to give this a go as very few dunkins in the uk 🙁

June 10, 2016 at 4:26 amThis recipe sounds great. Can I use hazelnut spread instead of hazelnut extract?
Stephanie says
June 10, 2016 at 5:01 amThe flavor should be ok, but the spread would add a texture to the coffee you may not want.

February 1, 2016 at 7:25 pmThat sounds sooooooooo good!!! I used to have one every afternoon but haven’t had one in 6 years since retiring. Sadly, we moved and there is no Dunkin in the vicinity or a decent cafe! Now I can make one myself even though it is only 27F!!!! LOL!!! I will definitely keep the recipe for the dog days of summer which I can hardly wait! Thanks for the recipe
