Dunkin's giving away a million free medium Refreshers on Aug 10, 2026. Get the promo code, how to redeem, and tips to score yours before they're gone.
Dunkin' is at it again. After teasing a "million" free drinks through its new Instagram broadcast channel, the chain has confirmed another drop for Monday, August 10, 2026. This time, the code is out, and if you're a Dunkin' Rewards member, you can grab a free medium Refresher—but you'll need to move fast.
Dunkin' told the New York Post that the official code for this wave is FRSHDROP2. Enter it in the Dunkin' app or at checkout to unlock a free medium Refresher. Note that some outlets have reported the code as FRESHDROP2, but the official code is FRSHDROP2; the alternative is likely a typo. Either way, you must be a Dunkin' Rewards member to redeem it.
If you haven't tried one, a Dunkin' Refresher is an iced drink made with green tea or lemonade, mixed with flavors like pineapple, raspberry, or hibiscus. It's a refreshing pick-me-up, especially on a hot August day.
The code was announced via Dunkin's new Instagram broadcast channel, 'Dunkin' Diehards'. To join, head to Dunkin's official Instagram page and tap the invite link on their story, or look for the 'dunkin' diehards' link next to a little orange heart under the brand's bio. Once you're in, you'll get direct messages from Dunkin' with codes and surprises.
To redeem:
Remember, this is a limited-time offer. Only one million codes are available, and it's first-come, first-served. Once they're gone, they're gone.
This isn't the first time Dunkin' has done this. On August 3, 2026, the chain gave away one million free medium Refreshers through the same channel. The message back then read, "As a thank you for joining dunkin' diehards…between you and me, we might be giving away 1 million free refreshers on Monday August 3rd. Code will drop on Monday…shhhh."
Now they're doubling down. A spokesperson told The Post, "This is just the beginning, Diehards can expect a few more surprises dropping soon, only through the channel." So if you want to catch future drops, joining the broadcast channel is your best bet.
This giveaway is part of the launch of Dunkin' Diehards, a broadcast channel on Instagram that lets the brand send direct texts and photos to followers' DM inboxes. It's a smart way to build a loyal, engaged audience—and giving away free drinks is a surefire way to get people to join.
If you missed today's drop, don't worry. The spokesperson's hint about "a few more surprises" suggests there will be more opportunities soon. Keep your notifications on and your Rewards account ready.
