The first one is a Vanilla Latte. It is one of Starbucks most popular drinks. If you guys don’t know, it is a coffee with a hint of sweetness which makes it the most popular drink.
The next one is the Iced White Chocolate Mocha. This drink is a white chocolate mocha just iced. By far, this is one of the most popular iced drinks at Starbucks because of its flavor.
Another drink that is really popular is the Java Chip Frappuccino. The Java Chip Frappuccino is coffee blended with mocha sauce, mocha chips, milk and ice.

Dunkin’ Donuts is another chain that is popular in coffee. Dunkin’ Donuts has a variety of drinks like lattes, mocha lattes, coffee blends and so much more. Here are the top 3 popular drinks from Dunkin’ Donuts.
The first drink is just a simple original blend (hot or iced) with or without flavor. Dunkin coffee is usually pretty smooth and the flavor of this coffee is bitter which they are known for. Many people complete this drink with whipped cream and toppings for a little excitement or look for a little change.
The next drink that is really popular is a Dunkin caramel swirl latte (iced or hot). This drink is like the caramel mocha but just a little less sweet, a little more creamy, and less chocolate. This drink blends well with the caramel flavor and is softened by milk.
Lastly, another popular drink Hazelnut Mocha (hot or iced). This drink has a hint of coffee flavor and the hazelnut flavoring adds a little bit of bitterness to finish the drink. Most people say that this drink is better served hot because then the flavoring comes in better. Dunkin Donuts has more drinks like the Charli Drink, Pumpkin Spice Latte, Nutella Surprise and more, but these 3 drinks are the more popular drinks that people get.
