“Dunkin’ Donuts admires and respects the commitment of veterans who have given selflessly to their country and we are proud to play an active role in helping them rebuild their lives,” said Steve Caldeira, Chief Global Communications & Public Affairs Officer for Dunkin’ Brands.  “We hope our involvement will inspire our customers to sign up to become Homes for Our Troops volunteers and join our effort to help these brave men and women live the rest of their lives to the fullest.”

Dunkin’ Donuts is also launching a nationwide call to recruit one million new volunteers to support Homes for Our Troops’ efforts. The first 200 people to sign up as volunteers will receive free Dunkin’ coffee for one month.

2 tbs pina colada mix or coconut cream

Combine all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth. Pour into glass over ice.

Iced Chocolate Vanilla Cappuccino

1/2 cup sugar
1 cup water
3/4 cup sugar syrup
1 1/4 cup Dunkin’ Donuts espresso (Customize with chocolate and French-vanilla flavor shots or use 1/2 tsp vanilla extract.)

Bring water to a boil. Boil one minute and stir to completely dissolve sugar. Set aside to cool.  Measure and combine sugar syrup and espresso.  Place in flat bottom baking pan and place in freezer.  Whisk every 20 minutes until frozen – color will lighten and texture will become “icy”.  When firm, whisk and allow to freeze overnight.  To serve:  scoop into oversized cappuccino mug and serve with foamed skim milk.

Let me know how these turn out for you.  They sound so yummy!!!!

During the hours of 7 am-10:30 am, McD’s is giving away the chicken biscuits. During the hours of 10:30 am-7 pm, they will giving away the chicken sandwiches. Don’t forget, you need to purchase a drink to get this sandwich for free. The sandwich usually costs about $2.79, so although you have to purchase something it seems to be a worthwhile deal.

Don’t forget about the free Dunkin’ Donuts iced coffee that is also on May 15. No purchase is necessary to receive the free coffee.

Do you have any freebies to share?

Dunkin’ Donuts is also partnering with a non-profit organization, National Police Athletic League (NPAL), which is a group that supports underprivileged youth through education, sports, and leadership opportunities as well as various community service projects. Dunkin’ Donuts is donating $80,000 to be broken up in increments of $5,000 over 16 individual markets to go towards funding their Youth Leadership Program.

Dunkin’ Donuts anticipates that they will give away nearly 4 million cups of iced coffee on May 15th. I’ll hope you’ll drop by and be a part of this fabulous event! Hooray for free stuff!
