Dunkin’ is giving away 1 million free Refreshers to rewards members today using promo code FRSHDROP2, continuing the chain’s tradition of massive free drink promotions that have become a summer staple.
Customers can enter the code FRSHDROP2 in the Dunkin’ app to claim a free Refresher while supplies last, according to multiple social media posts about the giveaway. The offer is available to Dunkin’ Rewards members only, and the promotion runs on a first-come, first-served basis.
Dunkin’ Refreshers are fruity beverages made with brewed green tea, B vitamins, and concentrated fruit flavors. The chain offers flavors including Strawberry Dragonfruit and Mango Pineapple, served over ice for a cool, refreshing sip. This summer, Dunkin’ has also featured the Candy Pink Lemonade Refresher, made with pineapple, raspberry, and hibiscus flavors blended with lemonade and topped with dragonfruit pieces, according to Dunkin’s official menu.
These large-scale giveaways have become a signature marketing strategy for Dunkin’ in 2026. The chain gave away 1 million free coffees on April 1 with the code StillNotAJoke, followed by another million on April 21 using code FREECOFFEE1, according to USA Today. In May, Dunkin’ repeated the promotion on May 19 with code COFFEEISFREE, and earlier this month on August 3, the chain released code DUNKINDI3HARDS for another million-drink giveaway, per Sporked.
The giveaways tap into the company’s rewards program membership base, which has grown substantially. By offering free premium drinks to a large segment of its customer base on specific dates, Dunkin’ drives app engagement and encourages sign-ups for its Rewards program. The August 3 refresher giveaway, which preceded today’s promotion, showed that Dunkin’ is willing to run back-to-back large-scale offers during peak summer demand when cold beverages are most appealing.
Like the previous giveaways this year, today’s promotion is limited to the first 1 million redemptions. Customers hoping to participate should open the Dunkin’ app and enter code FRSHDROP2 before supplies run out. For those not yet signed up for Dunkin’ Rewards, the program is free to join through the Dunkin’ app or website.
