These delicious [low-fat smoothies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highprotein-smoothie) are the prefect contribution to [Dunkin' Donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2023-summer-menu)' summer menu. The frozen beverages are all made with low-fat yogurt to add a creamy and satisfying texture to each blended drink.

The real fruit-infused flavors include Strawberry Banana and Tropical Mango. Every low-fat smoothie is just 260 calories per 16 ounce serving.

In addition to these fruity smoothies, the menu will also add caffeinated smoothies like "hot Dunkaccino featuring a [blend of mocha and coffee flavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blended-coffees)." There will also be new Coolatta Lite beverages that will appear on the menu. These flavors will mix fruit and coffee together in flavors such as the Strawberry Coolatta and Vanila Bean Coolatta. The beverages will follow the low-fat theme and contain between 33 and 80 percent less calories.
