Dragon fruit refresher; Dunkin Donuts VS Starbucks


Currently both Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks are offering a Dragon fruit flavored tea for the summer season, I decided to test out both of them to see which one is the best. I wanted to share my thoughts with you, plus I am going to host a small giveaway for all you coffee/tea lovers out there. 

Dunkin:

Size: Large
Price: $2.79

Prior to heading out to try out this tea I had never tried a Dragon fruit tea so I wasn't quite sure what to expect flavor wise. I was pleasantly surprised by this drink, it has almost a sweet strawberry taste to it and it was a welcomed refreshment from the hot summer heat. The Dunkin Large holds quite a bit more than the largest cup offered by Starbucks, and is is cheaper.

Starbucks:

Size: Trenta
Cost: $5.25

After trying the Dunkin refresher, I knew that Starbucks was also offering one so later in the week I stopped by to pick one up. Looks wise the Starbucks drink is more appealing to the eye, the pink is brighter and they add actual pieces of dragon fruit to the drink, however that doesn't mean the drink is better! Flavor wise I thought they were pretty on par, however once I started getting to the last 25% of my drink I was pretty unhappy due to the amount of chunks of seeds and dragon fruit that were getting caught in my straw. They also offer one with lemonade which I think is better than just the dragon fruit refresher alone. 

So which is the winner? Since both were pretty similar to me in flavor, I'd choose Dunkin as my winner due to the price difference and the fact you get more for your dollar buying it from Dunkin. 

GIVEAWAY:
Over on my Instagram page I am going to be giving two lucky commenters a $5 gift card to either Starbucks or Dunkin (Winners choice!) so that you can try out this drink or another of your choice.

I haven't had the one from DD yet but have had a couple from Starbucks. I think they taste great but, like you, I don't think there's enough actual drink in it.
