When the afternoon slump hits, nobody answers the call like Dunkin’. Whether you’re grabbing a new Vanilla Creme Cold Brew or indulging in the returning Brownie Batter Donut, a Dunkin’ run is the ultimate energy boost.

Now, Dunkin’ is expanding its pick-me-up powers beyond coffee and donuts and heading straight into the snack aisle. We’ve seen plenty of grocery store innovation from the beloved chain, but this latest move is something we never saw coming.

New Kar’s Nuts and Dunkin’ Snack Mix

Dunkin’ is bringing one of its signature flavors to, wait for it…trail mix.

That’s right—Dunkin’ and Kar’s Nuts have teamed up to create what might be the most energizing snack mix yet: Caramel Cold Brew Trail Mix.

If Kar’s sounds familiar, it’s probably because the brand has already nailed another legendary snack collab with M&M’s trail mix (after all, M&M’s are the main reason we love trail mix in the first place). Kar’s has a talent for taking traditional trail mix up a notch, crafting unique and flavor-packed snack blends, and this new Dunkin’ edition is no exception.

If your daily routine involves coffee and an afternoon snack, this blend is made for you. According to the packaging, it balances “the indulgent flavor of caramel with an invigorating kick of cold brew coffee”—all wrapped up in a sweet, salty, crunchy handful of fuel.

Here’s what’s inside: roasted salted peanuts, crunchy butter toffee peanuts, colorful cocoa candies, and Dunkin’-inspired caramel cold brew-flavored almonds. Even the color scheme is on-brand—pink, orange, white, and brown, just like Dunkin’s iconic aesthetic.

Now, do we think coffee-coated almonds alone justify a full-scale Dunkin’ collaboration? Maybe not. But if that’s what it took to get this snack on shelves, we’re all for it.

And based on the online commentary, we’re not the only ones excited. “Everything in this mix sounds yum!” one fan wrote on Instagram. “I’m BEYOND hype for this,” added another.

Right now, a 20-ounce bag of trail mix is available for $9.49 exclusively at Kroger. However, throughout the month of March, it will arrive on both Amazon and Kars.com. And, as soon as it does, it will immediately be added to our office snack drawers.
