To celebrate the launch of its new banana-themed drink lineup, Dunkin has officially dropped some must-have Banana Land merch.
Earlier this month, Dunkin dropped three new banana-themed drinks: the Banana Puddin’ Cloud Latte, the Banana Daydream Refresher, and the Bananarama Matcha. While fans have been going bananas for the fruity new lineup, Dunkin decided to give consumers another way to celebrate by dropping some exclusive Banana Land merch. As one would expect, the new merch drop features several banana-themed items in a sunny yellow hue that's perfect for the warm weather ahead. Merch options range from practical pieces like a hoodie, t-shirt, sweatpants, and snapback hat, to more whimsical pieces like the Banana Land mini drink tote and even a full banana costume branded with the Dunkin logo down the front.
The limited-time Banana Land merch is available now from DunkinRunsOnMerch.com.
