Time for a new Dunkin’ Donuts Mug Up Photo Challenge! This month is all about finding your inner hipster…
True be told, this month I had to do a bit of research for the photo challenge. I consulted the wonderful world wide web to see exactly what “hipster” is all about. Because I’m totally cool and with the times, ya know!
After my crash course in all things hipster, I came up with some black skinnies, a chambray shirt, a big scarf, and messy, beach-wave hair. Oh, and sunglasses. You cannot forget the sunglasses! Do I look hipster? I have no idea. But I do know that black leggings are really just yoga pants that are socially acceptable to wear as part of an outfit, so I might just stick with this whole hipster look! 😉
If my little sister was reading this right now, she would probably be laughing her head off at me. Somehow I went from being the cool big sister with all the cool clothes to the older sister who has no idea how to dress herself. Now I look to her for all my fashion advice. When I did I lose my “cool” status? I just need to convince her to move in with me and become my personal fashion guru. She’d totally do that if I paid her in treats and goodies from my blog, right?
Speaking of treats, I have a special one for you today!
With spring and summer on the way, I’m starting to crave iced coffees instead of hot, and this Iced Banana Latte is one of my favorites this time of year. Banana may sound like a strange addition to coffee, but I promise you’ll love the sweet, mellow flavor mixed with the coffee and OF COURSE, chocolate!
It reminds me of this little soda shop I used to frequent back when I was in cosmetology school. I would order their “dirty monkey”, which was a fabulous banana-chocolate milkshake, and I’m telling you, I think this latte is even better than that milkshake I remember! This sweet iced coffee whips up in just seconds in the blender, and makes a great afternoon pick-me-up. I hope you enjoy this delicious iced latte made with Dunkin’ Donuts coffee!

Each month will feature a new theme for the photo contest, and Dunkin’ Donuts is celebrating the month of March by asking you to upload a photo of yourself, your mug, and your inner hipster {here}.
Have fun with it, and I can’t wait to see your awesome photos!

There is a gas station chain on the east coast called Sheetz and they make a canned chocolate banana ice coffee that is soooooo good! This sounds just as amazing 🙂
Happy Blogging!

That’s too funny! There’s something about banana, chocolate, and coffee that just go perfectly together!
At my summer job during college, my co-workers made lots of coffee runs. They brought back banana flavored lattes one time, and I remember thinking it was a weird (before I tasted it, of course). It was so good! Thanks for sharing. Now I can pretend I’m back in college again;)
I thought it sounded strange the first time I ordered one too! But they really are yummy! I hope this brings back great memories. 🙂 Enjoy!
This drink sound so yummy. It’s like a perfect pick me up breakfast with coffee and bananas all in one…lol. Pinned. Visiting from Craft o Maniac Mon. Linkup
Absolutely! And it’s perfect for the warmer weather that’s starting to sneak in. Thanks so much for stopping by! Enjoy the recipe! 🙂
This looks delicious! Can’t wait to try it. Visiting from Craft-o-Maniac Monday. Would love if you would link up tomorrow on my Tasty Tuesday hop!

Thank you, Julia! Hope you enjoy the recipe!
I want some!!!!! Please!
I’ll share! 😉 Thanks for stopping by, Christine!
There is definitely something about banana and coffee. I had a latte similar on vacation one year and had to come home and recreate it in a shake. I’ll definitely bring treats to our next meet up if you make these 🙂
Seriously, it’s the perfect combination! So it’s a deal then… treats and lattes. Sounds like the perfect way to spend an afternoon with a great friend! 🙂
This looks delicious. When I was in college I would order a blended iced mocha with banana at the local coffee shop. I had forgotten all about it until I saw this. 🙂 Yum!
I’m so glad you can enjoy it again, Allison! I think this version’s pretty tasty. 🙂
