*R&B icons Brandy and Monica are serving up a double dose of ‘90s nostalgia with a new Dunkin’ collaboration and their first co-headlining tour. Starting August 20, Dunkin’ introduces the Cereal ‘N Milk Latte, a creamy espresso drink infused with cereal milk and marshmallow flavors, evoking childhood breakfast memories.
The partnership was inspired by the duo’s 1998 Grammy-winning hit. “They reached out to us and had this exciting idea to play off of our song ‘The Boy Is Mine’ and make it into ‘The Latte Is Mine,’” Brandy shared with PEOPLE. “We just thought that was so cute — and we fell in love with the drink!”
Monica added, “It’s more like a creamy espresso latte blended with cereal and milk, which is something we all grew up eating anyway. It has a familiar, nostalgic taste to it.”
In a playful Dunkin’ commercial by Betches Studios, the singers jokingly claim the latte before Brandy quips, “We are not doing this again – can someone get us a Cereal ‘N Milk Latte please?” The drink magically appears, capturing their lighthearted chemistry.
The latte launch coincides with The Boy Is Mine tour, marking 25 years since their chart-topping single. “The song was such a monumental song and so many people loved it, but it just never just seemed like the right time. But now coming together all of these years later, it just seems like the perfect time,” Brandy said.

Monica emphasized the tour’s surprises, stating, “We’ve decided we aren’t sharing any details about it. We don’t share a lot about what’s going on behind the scenes, and that’s very intentional.”
Brandy promised, “one of the best shows ever — vocally, stage, everything,” adding, “I just want people to just feel like it created this amazing memory for them that they can remember for the rest of their lives.”
The Cereal ‘N Milk Latte is available at Dunkin’ locations, in-app, and online starting August 20.
