Heading to Dunkin' for a Friday pick-me-up? You may be able to get one of the coveted drink buckets.

The viral 48-ounce beverage buckets are now available at Dunkin' locations nationwide.

Customers can choose how to fill their buckets – with iced coffee or refreshers – and adjusted to their preferred flavors and sweetness.

The limited launch comes months after the coffee chain tested the beverage buckets at a limited number of locations in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

Here's how you can snag one – if you act fast.

Dunkin' is launching a limited run of 48-ounce drink buckets nationwide.

Only 25 Dunkin' buckets available at each store

Dunkin's beverage buckets are available Friday, May 22, for a limited run.

They will be available at locations nationwide, but each store will have just 25 buckets available, the company said.

Each bucket is $12.99 and is not refillable after initial purchase.

Social media erupts over Dunkin' buckets

The limited bucket launch was long-awaited by some Dunkin' fans.

Earlier this year, the chain sparked widespread speculation about whether it was selling the item after social media posts appeared to show them for sale at some locations.

While Dunkin' didn't publicly confirm whether it was testing buckets at the time, posts about the buckets, including on X and Reels, each garnered millions of views within days.
