If you’re on TikTok and Instagram, then you've probably seen pictures of the Charli cold foam. But what is it, how long is it available, and how do you get one?
We don't want you to miss out, so we'll give you the full Charli cold foam breakdown in this article.
What Exactly Is Dunkin Donuts Charli Cold Foam?
The Dunkin Donuts Charli cold foam is a Dunkin’ cold brew coffee mixed with three pumps of caramel and milk and topped with a unique sweet cold foam with a sweet cinnamon sugar topping.
It’s a smooth, refreshing, and sweet iced coffee drink with a big hit of caffeine and a little bit of spice from the cinnamon.
It’s proving popular with younger coffee lovers and is one of the best Dunkin iced beverages for a hot day.
This cold foam drink is a new twist on the 'Charli drink,' which was released during Charli D’Amelio’s collab with Dunkin’ Donuts in 2020.
Charli D’Amelio is a TikTok superstar with over 140 million followers, and she's become a global sensation for her videos.
Dunkin has teamed up with her to recreate her favorite drink growing up, the Charli drink (one of the other Dunkin iced beverages inspired by Charli D'Amelio) which involves a mixture of cold brew coffee, caramel, and dairy-free milk.
The Charli cold foam has added sweet cold foam and a cinnamon topping which gives it a completely different taste and texture.

How It Tastes
There are no two ways about it; the Charli cold foam is a strong coffee. It has the signature Dunkin Donuts cold brew as a base with over 260mg of caffeine per serving.
The sweet caramel helps to counteract some of the bitterness of the cold brew coffee, and the sweet cold foam gives it a luxuriously smooth creaminess.
The vanilla sweet cold foam blends into the cold brew coffee as you drink it and gives a light but very sweet taste with every sip.
It's a rich drink, but you can easily make it dairy free because there's no milk in the sweet cold foam. Just trade out the whole milk for a plant based alternative.
Dunkin offers coconut, almond, or soy.
The energy boost from the caffeine with the sweet taste from the other ingredients make it the best of both worlds, with the slightly spicy cinnamon rounding it off nicely.
This Charli D'amelio inspired cold brew isn't a healthy option, but whether dairy or dairy free it works well for those who enjoy sweet coffees.

The Charli Cold Foam Nutrition Facts - How Many Calories Does It Have?
The Charli D'Amelio inspired cold brew sweet cold foam drink tastes amazing, but what's actually in it?
Well, first and foremost, it's a variation on a regular cold brew.

It's then topped with cinnamon sugar topping for some extra spicy sweetness.

The Starbucks Frappuccino range has 400-500 calories in a medium sized drink with over 60 grams of sugar, and other specialty drinks like Pumpkin Spiced Lattes also have over 350 calories.
That doesn't mean The Charli cold foam is good for you, but it's not as bad as some other options.
