Dunkin' is joining the growing list of companies riding the wave of energy drink popularity. SPARKD' energy drinks were added to the Dunkin' menu in two flavors this week.
You can get them in berry burst and peach flavors.
The company says they provide a "revitalizing burst of energy, made with vitamins, minerals and a kick of caffeine."
The large 30-ounce drink has 192 milligrams of caffeine. A small has about half the caffeine with 92 milligrams, which is roughly equal to what is contained in a serving of coffee.
The Food and Drug Administration says up to 400 milligrams of caffeine a day is an amount not generally associated with dangerous, negative effects.
