Step aside Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, there’s a new celebrity Dunkin’ enthusiast in town. Rapper Ice Spice has announced a unique collaboration with the company, set to launch across the country this fall. The partnership will officially kick off on Wednesday, September 13.
Ice Spice, who has established herself in the rap scene, took to social media platform X (previously known as Twitter) last November to ask her fans to vote for their official fan name. The winning choice was ‘Munchkins’, a nod to her first viral hit “Munch (Feelin’ U)”. This makes her collaboration with Dunkin’, which appears to be focused on the popular bite-sized treat, quite fitting.
Ice Spice used X to reveal the collaboration, sharing a promotional image of a Dunkin’ munchkin wearing her iconic iced diamond necklace. The caption read, “America runs on MUNCHKINS.”
The company’s Instagram post offered more details about the partnership, hinting at the possibility of incorporating multiple Dunkin’ favorites into the collaboration. The caption read, “Putting the ice in pumpkin spice.”
According to an Instagram post, Dunkin’ will introduce an Ice Spice Munkins Drink that combines their frozen coffee with a pumpkin munchkin donut hole. The drink is then enhanced with a caramel drizzle and topped with whipped cream.
However, amidst the excitement from fans in the comments section, a representative from Dunkin’s official profile denied the rumor of such a drink. The representative simply wrote, “Couldn’t be us.”
It seems that Ice Spice’s fans and Dunkin’ enthusiasts will have to wait for more information about the collaboration to be released.
