Dunkin’ is apparently getting into the spirit of the US Open golf tournament.
The Boston-based beverage chain is introducing new “Tee” drinks, a custom golf ball sleeve and a partnership with professional golfer John Daly.
The company is introducing two of the drinks, a Peach “Tee” Dunkin’ Zero, a zero-sugar energy drink inspired by peach tea, featuring peach flavor and iced black tea, and a Raspberry “Tee” Lemonade, or lemonade combined with black tea and raspberry flavor.
Dunkin’ will also sell a limited number of Munchkins Golf Ball Sleeves, featuring three assorted Munchkins donut holes and a special Dunkin’ TaylorMade SpeedSoft golf ball. The sleeves will be available while supplies last.
Daly, meanwhile, is appearing in a new ad for Dunkin’ in which he holds a Peach Tee drink saying that he orders his Dunkin’ “Daly style—with a little bit of room … to put all my hopes and dreams in.” He then corrects it and says what he actually plans to put in his beverage, but that part is unfortunately censored.
In addition, Dunkin’ has worked with TaylorMade, the golf equipment maker, on merchandise for the company’s DunkinRunsonMerch.com site. The items include a stand bag, red quarter zip, golf polo, golf hat, and other items.
As for the event itself, Dunkin’ has turned its location at Westhampton Beach into a golf-inspired destination, including a golf-themed interior with a putting green, custom golf cart and various photo-worthy moments.
Members of Dunkin’ Rewards will be able to earn 4x points on beverage purchases at any location Tuesday and Wednesday. They can earn 100 bonus points when ordering in the drive-thru or on the mobile app on Saturday and Sunday.
The promotion comes as Dunkin’ is coming off a year in which the brand leapfrogged Wendy’s to become the nation’s fifth-largest restaurant chain, according to the Technomic Top 500. U.S. system sales grew 5.1% to $13.1 billion. Parent company Inspire Brands has filed confidentially for an IPO later this year.
