According to official information from Dunkin', most of their flavor swirls contain dairy, with one notable exception: the Mocha Swirl. This confirms that the Dunkin mocha sauce is vegan, making it a reliable and delicious choice for those seeking plant-based options at the popular coffee chain.

The plant-based dairy market was valued at nearly $3 billion in 2023, but not all animal-free ingredients are obvious. The key to determining if a mocha with oat milk is vegan lies in the chocolate sauce and other hidden ingredients, not the plant-based milk itself.

According to Starbucks' official nutrition information, the mocha sauce contains a blend of invert sugar, corn syrup, water, cocoa (processed with alkali), natural flavor, potassium sorbate, and citric acid. This reveals that the core ingredients are sweeteners and cocoa, making the product surprisingly dairy-free.
