Dunkin' debuts caffeine-spiked drink amid Panera controversy

• Dunkin' did not immediately respond to Axios' questions about how much caffeine is in the new drinks, which come in two flavors: berry burst and peach.

Zoom in: The Food and Drug Administration says "for healthy individuals" a safe quantity of caffeine is 400 milligrams per day, which is around four to five cups of coffee.

• A large, 30-ounce Charged Lemonade contains up to 236 mg of caffeine, per Panera's website.
• The FDA said it estimates "toxic effects, like seizures, can be observed with rapid consumption of around 1,200 milligrams of caffeine."

💭 Deehan's thought bubble: Most hearty New Englanders, who are already quite addicted to all of Dunkin's existing caffeine-addled products, should be fine with another couple hundred milligrams of caffeine.
