There are plenty of reasons to love the holidays. One of our favorites? Dunkin' is stocked with seasonal drinks and donuts and adorable holiday cups. And at Ben Affleck's coffee shop of choice, they add festive touches to not only their hot cups, but also to their iced cups and donut boxes. So no matter what you're picking up, it's sure to spark joy.

This year, Delish is lucky enough to have an exclusive first look at Dunkin's 2023 holiday cups. The especially cheery and pink cups hit stores on November 1. Scroll on for a peek at this year's lineup—and keep scrolling for a walk down Dunkin' holiday cup memory lane. They sure have evolved over the years, but there's something to love about every single one.

There they are! Pink donuts on strings, mint donuts as ornaments, SPRINKLES! We could not love the 2023 lineup more.

Peppermint stripes, wrapping paper, lights (that little socket though!), and a snow globe—all adorably incorporated into the Dunkin' logo. 2021's lineup was on point.

That bad boy in the middle is an Iced Peppermint Mocha Signature Latte, and we'd really love for it to be sold all year round (*wink wink*).

No, but the real queen of 2020 was the Iced Sugarplum Macchiato, an ombré spectacular with hints of blueberry, raspberry, blackberry, and plum—plus a dash of vanilla and sugar. It's The Nutcracker in a cup!

While we love the red graphics on the 2016 cup, that peppermint-topped donut is really stealing this show.
