Dunkin’ is helping influencer Alix Earle celebrate the launch of her new Netflix show 'Earle Meets World,' with the Alix’s Earle-Y Riser Meal.

Inspired by the creator herself and her go-to breakfast order, the Alix’s Earle-Y Riser Meal is meant for those who need some early-morning fuel for their busy day ahead. The Alix’s Earle-Y Riser Meal starts with a frothy Shakin’ Espresso drink, with sugar-free vanilla and almond milk. To eat, the meal also includes a Sausage, Egg and Cheese Hash Brown Wake-Up Wrap, and three assorted MUNCHKINS Donut Hole Treats. As Earle herself explains, "“I’m always juggling a million things and life gets chaotic, so I needed a breakfast to match that. My Earle-Y Riser Meal brings my favorite Dunkin’ order together in one easy meal that’s perfect for busy mornings, long days working and filming my new reality show."
