Dutch Bros Menu With Price: Complete 2026 Breakdown for Every Drink Category
Dutch Bros started in 1992 in Grants Pass, Oregon — two brothers, a pushcart, and an espresso machine — and has since grown into a chain with over 1,100 locations across 25 states. The drinks are genuinely good, the Broistas are relentlessly upbeat, and almost every drink can be rebuilt from scratch based on your milk preference, sweetness level, and caffeine goal. But walking up to that menu board for the first time can still feel overwhelming.
This is a practical breakdown of the full Dutch Bros menu with prices across every category: signature espresso drinks, cold brew, Rebel energy drinks, Frosts, Freezes, tea, chai, lemonade, matcha, smoothies, the food program, and the secret menu. Pricing reflects 2026 national averages and may vary by $0.25–$0.75 depending on region — California and major metro locations run higher, while Pacific Northwest and Midwest stores tend to sit at or below the average.
How Dutch Bros Sizes and Pricing Work
Before getting into individual categories, it helps to understand how Dutch Bros structures its menu. Every drink comes in three standard sizes, and some specialty items are available in a kids’ size too.
| Size | Volume | General Price Range |
|---|---|---|
| Kids | 10 oz | $1.75 – $3.00 |
| Small | 16 oz | $3.00 – $5.50 |
| Medium | 24 oz | $4.25 – $6.75 |
| Large | 32 oz | $5.25 – $7.69 |
The lowest-priced item on the menu is the Dutch Soda, which starts at $1.75 for a small. The most expensive is the Premium Nitro Cold Brew at $7.69. Everything else lives between those two points, with most medium specialty drinks landing in the $5.00–$6.45 range. Franchise owners set their own pricing within Dutch Bros’ guidelines, so what you pay in Phoenix won’t always match what someone pays in Portland.
Signature Dutch Faves: The Drinks That Built the Brand
When people talk about Dutch Bros, these are the drinks they mean. Dutch calls them “Faves,” and they’ve been on the menu long enough to have developed genuine cult followings. They’re all espresso-based, made with Dutch Bros’ Private Reserve blend sourced from Brazil, Colombia, and El Salvador, and available hot, iced, or blended.
| Drink | Key Ingredients | Medium | Large | Approx. Calories (Med, Iced) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Eagle | Espresso, half-and-half, vanilla syrup, caramel sauce, caramel drizzle | $5.25 | $6.00 | 290–340 |
| Caramelizer | Espresso, chocolate milk, caramel sauce | $5.25 | $6.00 | 300–390 |
| Annihilator | Espresso, half-and-half, chocolate macadamia nut syrup | $5.25 | $6.00 | 310–400 |
| 9-1-1 | 6 espresso shots, half-and-half, Irish cream syrup | $5.50 | $6.25 | 320–420 |
| Kicker | Espresso, half-and-half, Irish cream syrup | $5.25 | $6.00 | 270–350 |
| Caramel Pumpkin Brûlée (seasonal) | Espresso, pumpkin, caramel, brûlée topping | $5.50 | $6.25 | 340–430 |
The Golden Eagle has been the top-selling drink since Dutch Bros opened. It’s a breve — half-and-half instead of regular milk — layered with vanilla syrup, caramel sauce, and a caramel drizzle. The half-and-half makes it noticeably richer than a standard latte. Regulars order it “Picture Perfect” for extra drizzle and a cleaner presentation.
The 9-1-1 contains 384mg of caffeine from six espresso shots — nearly the FDA’s full recommended daily limit in one drink. Legitimate for overnight shifts, but not something to order without knowing what you’re getting into.
Classic Coffee Drinks
Beyond the Faves, the standard coffee menu covers daily staples. These are no-frills, well-made drinks with room to customize.
| Drink | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|
| Americano | $3.25 | $4.00 | $5.00 |
| Latte | $3.50 | $4.50 | $5.50 |
| Mocha | $3.75 | $4.75 | $5.75 |
| White Chocolate Mocha | $4.00 | $5.00 | $6.00 |
| Caramel Mocha | $4.00 | $5.00 | $6.00 |
| Breve (flavored) | $4.25 | $5.25 | $6.25 |
| Drip Coffee | $2.00 | $3.00 | $4.00 |
Drip coffee is Dutch Bros’ most underrated option. It’s simple, inexpensive, and customizable with any syrup flavor. If you want Dutch Bros quality without the specialty drink price, this is where to start.
Cold Brew and Nitro Cold Brew
Cold brew sits in a slightly higher price tier than standard espresso drinks because of the extended steep time, and the Nitro Cold Brew is the most expensive item on the full Dutch Bros menu with price list. Nitro cold brew is poured through a pressurized tap that creates a creamy, cascading texture without any added dairy — naturally smooth and slightly sweet without needing syrups.
| Drink | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cold Brew | $3.50 | $4.50 | $5.50 |
| Vanilla Cold Brew | $4.00 | $5.00 | $6.00 |
| Toasted Coconut Cold Brew | $4.25 | $5.25 | $6.25 |
| Horchata Cold Brew | $4.50 | $5.50 | $6.50 |
| Nitro Cold Brew | $4.75 | $5.95 | $6.95 |
| Premium Nitro Cold Brew | $5.95 | $6.75 | $7.69 |
The Horchata Cold Brew is technically a secret menu item that has become so popular at most locations that Broistas know it by name. It layers cold brew with cinnamon, vanilla, and almond syrup — it genuinely tastes like the Mexican horchata drink, just caffeinated. Worth ordering at least once.
Dutch Freeze: Blended Espresso Drinks
A Freeze is Dutch Bros’ blended coffee category — espresso, milk, ice, and flavors combined into a thick, milkshake-style drink. Freezes cost $0.50–$1.00 more than their iced equivalents, and they take slightly longer during busy windows.
| Drink | Small | Medium | Large | Approx. Calories (Med) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Eagle Freeze | $5.25 | $6.00 | $7.00 | 560–630 |
| Caramelizer Freeze | $5.25 | $6.00 | $7.00 | 580–650 |
| Annihilator Freeze | $5.25 | $6.00 | $7.00 | 600–680 |
| Double Chocolate Freeze | $5.00 | $5.75 | $6.75 | 540–620 |
| White Chocolate Freeze | $5.00 | $5.75 | $6.75 | 510–590 |
One thing people get confused about constantly: a Freeze and a Frost are two completely different drinks. A Freeze has espresso in it — it’s a caffeinated blended coffee. A Frost is an ice cream-based shake with no coffee at all unless you specifically ask for a shot added. They look similar and come in the same cups, but the bases couldn’t be more different.
Frost (Dutch Bros Shakes)
Frosts are built on an ice cream mix blended with syrups. No espresso, no Rebel base — just a creamy dessert shake. They’re the go-to for non-coffee drinkers and kids.
| Frost Flavor | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vanilla Bean | $3.50 | $4.50 | $5.50 |
| Strawberry | $3.50 | $4.50 | $5.50 |
| Chocolate | $3.50 | $4.50 | $5.50 |
| Cotton Candy | $3.75 | $4.75 | $5.75 |
| Birthday Cake | $3.75 | $4.75 | $5.75 |
| Mint Chip | $3.75 | $4.75 | $5.75 |
Rebel Energy Drinks: Dutch Bros’ Other Identity
If you’ve never ordered a Rebel, you’ve missed half of what makes Dutch Bros worth visiting. The Blue Rebel is Dutch Bros’ proprietary energy drink base — built in-house, not Red Bull or Monster — containing caffeine, taurine, and B vitamins. Each large Rebel carries roughly 130–150mg of caffeine, which is lower than a 9-1-1 but hits differently because of the energy drink formulation. You pick the base, choose your syrups, and decide between iced or blended.
Browsing the full Dutch Bros menu with prices for Rebels shows a consistent pricing structure with room to customize without extra charges.
| Rebel Drink | Key Flavors | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shark Attack | Blue raspberry, coconut, lime + pomegranate drizzle | $4.75 | $5.50 | $6.25 |
| Double Rainbro | Strawberry, peach, coconut | $4.75 | $5.50 | $6.25 |
| Galaxy Fish | Strawberry, lime, passion fruit | $4.75 | $5.50 | $6.25 |
| Aftershock | Strawberry, blackberry, raspberry, lime | $4.75 | $5.50 | $6.25 |
| OG Gummy Bear | Watermelon, coconut, lime | $4.75 | $5.50 | $6.25 |
| Luvstruck (seasonal) | Blackberry, vanilla + pink velvet Soft Top | $4.75 | $5.50 | $6.25 |
| Firework (seasonal) | Orange, cherry, pineapple | $4.75 | $5.50 | $6.25 |
The Galaxy Fish became the most talked-about Rebel in 2025 after winning Dutch Bros’ Secret Menu Bracket Championship with over 100,000 votes. The strawberry-lime-passion fruit combination is bright and tropical — it’s the Rebel to order if you’re picking one for the first time.
The Shark Attack is the most photographed drink on the menu. The pomegranate drizzle creates a blue-to-orange color gradient that photographs well, which is partly why it stays one of the most-ordered Rebels year-round.
New for 2026: the Firework Rebel (orange, cherry, pineapple with a sour candy straw) and the Wave Rider (watermelon and blue raspberry with mango poppin’ boba) are part of the “Back to Cool” seasonal drop, available iced or blended.
Tea, Chai, and Lemonade
Tea, chai, and lemonade serve a specific purpose at Dutch Bros: they’re the default recommendation for anyone who doesn’t drink coffee. Tea drinks are lighter in caffeine, chai is warm and spiced, and the lemonade lineup covers the pure refreshment slot.
Iced Tea
| Drink | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|
| Green Tea | $3.50 | $4.25 | $5.25 |
| Black Tea | $3.50 | $4.25 | $5.25 |
| Peach Tea | $3.75 | $4.50 | $5.50 |
| Passion Tea | $3.75 | $4.50 | $5.50 |
| Raspberry White Tea | $3.75 | $4.50 | $5.50 |
Chai Lattes
| Drink | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vanilla Chai | $3.75 | $4.75 | $5.75 |
| Spicy Chai | $3.75 | $4.75 | $5.75 |
| Strawberry Horchata Chai | $4.25 | $5.25 | $6.25 |
| Dirty Chai (with espresso shot) | $4.50 | $5.50 | $6.50 |
The Vanilla Chai is consistently the drink that converts skeptics. People who are unsure what to order and don’t like coffee almost always end up liking this one — it’s warm, spiced, and not aggressively sweet unless you ask for extra pumps. The Dirty Chai adds a shot of espresso for anyone who wants the chai flavor but also needs the caffeine kick.
Lemonade
| Drink | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classic Lemonade | $3.50 | $4.25 | $5.25 |
| Strawberry Lemonade | $3.75 | $4.75 | $5.75 |
| Mango Lemonade | $3.75 | $4.75 | $5.75 |
| Rebel Lemonade (blended) | $4.75 | $5.50 | $6.50 |
Matcha and Smoothies
Matcha launched nationwide at Dutch Bros in May 2025 and filled a gap for customers who wanted something earthy and caffeinated but not coffee. The smoothies, on the other hand, are entirely caffeine-free fruit blends — no espresso, no energy base.
| Drink | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|
| Matcha Latte (hot or iced) | $4.75 | $5.75 | $6.75 |
| Matcha Lemonade | $4.75 | $5.75 | $6.75 |
| Strawberry Smoothie | $4.25 | $5.25 | $6.25 |
| Mango Smoothie | $4.25 | $5.25 | $6.25 |
| Green Apple Smoothie | $4.25 | $5.25 | $6.25 |
Kids Menu and Hot Cocoa
Everything on the kids’ menu is served in a 10 oz size only and is completely caffeine-free — no espresso, no Rebel base. Hot drinks come out at 140°F for safety. Pup Cups, a small cup of whipped cream for dogs, are free at every location.
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Vanilla Bean Frost | $1.75 – $2.50 |
| Strawberry Smoothie | $2.00 – $2.75 |
| Hot Chocolate (Kids Temp) | $2.00 – $2.75 |
| Strawberry Lemonade | $2.00 – $2.75 |
| Classic Hot Cocoa (all sizes) | $3.00 – $5.00 |
| White Hot Chocolate | $3.25 – $5.25 |
| Caramel Hot Cocoa | $3.50 – $5.50 |
Asking for “half sweet” on any kids’ drink cuts the sugar level noticeably without changing the flavor base — useful if you’re managing sugar intake for younger kids.
Dutch Bros Food Menu
The food program is a growing section of the Dutch Bros menu with a price lineup. Dutch Bros launched its hot food pilot in late 2024 across 8 test stores, expanded to 160 locations by fall 2025, and is targeting 500+ locations by Q4 2026. Availability varies by location — worth checking the app before making a specific food trip.
| Food Item | Price | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Chocolate Chip Muffin Top | $2.50 – $3.00 | All day |
| Lemon Poppyseed Muffin Top | $2.50 – $3.00 | All day |
| Chocolate Chip Cookie | $2.00 – $2.50 | All day |
| Granola Bar | $1.50 | All day |
| Classic Breakfast Burrito | $4.00 – $5.00 | Until 11 AM |
| Bacon Avocado Burrito | $4.50 – $5.50 | Until 11 AM |
The Chocolate Chip Muffin Top is the bestselling food item at locations that carry it — it pairs well with mochas and cold brew orders. The Lemon Poppyseed version is the better pairing for chai lattes and Rebels, where a lighter citrusy flavor balances the sweetness.
The Secret Menu
Dutch Bros has no official secret menu, but their open customization policy means Broistas can build almost any drink if you describe it by ingredients. By 2026, there will be over 50 verified fan-built drinks, and some Broistas keep informal lists of popular custom orders behind the counter.
The most-ordered off-menu drinks:
| Secret Drink | Base | Flavor Combination |
|---|---|---|
| Galaxy Fish Rebel | Iced Rebel | Strawberry, lime, passion fruit |
| Shark Attack Rebel | Iced Rebel | Blue raspberry, coconut, lime, pomegranate drizzle |
| Banana Bread Breve | Breve (iced or hot) | Hazelnut, banana syrup |
| White Zombie | Espresso + milk | White coffee, white chocolate sauce |
| Horchata Cold Brew | Cold Brew | Cinnamon, vanilla, almond syrup |
| Birthday Cake Frost | Frost (blended) | Almond roca, white chocolate, sprinkles |
| Unicorn Blood | Iced Rebel | Strawberry, peach, coconut |
When ordering secret menu drinks, always describe the drink by its ingredients rather than just the name. Not every Broista will know the shorthand, but they can build it once you explain what goes in. Secret menu drinks follow the same pricing as whatever base drink you’re building from.
Customization: What’s Free, What Costs Extra
Customization is where Dutch Bros genuinely separates itself. As of January 2025, the brand eliminated the surcharge for non-dairy milk — oat, almond, soy, and coconut milk are all free on any drink. That puts Dutch Bros ahead of most competitors on this specific point.
| Customization | Cost |
|---|---|
| Milk swap (oat, almond, soy, coconut, nonfat) | Free |
| Sugar-free syrup swap | Free |
| Sweetness level adjustment (half sweet, extra sweet, etc.) | Free |
| Ice level (light ice, extra ice, no ice) | Free |
| Soft Top® topping | +$0.50 – $0.75 |
| Extra espresso shot | +$0.75 – $1.00 |
| Blended upgrade (iced to Freeze) | +$0.50 – $1.00 |
| Extra drizzle (caramel, chocolate) | +$0.25 – $0.50 |
Soft Top is Dutch Bros’ proprietary topping — lighter and sweeter than standard whipped cream, holding up better on cold drinks. Worth the small upcharge on Rebels and Freezes.
Every flavored syrup has a sugar-free version at no extra cost. The sugar-free vanilla, caramel, and Irish cream versions are difficult to distinguish from the originals in a cold drink.
Dutch Bros Rewards and Ways to Save
The Dutch Bros app runs a points-based loyalty system that works well for regular customers. Points accumulate with every purchase and can be redeemed for free drinks — including customized large orders.
| Threshold | Reward |
|---|---|
| 125 points | Free drink (any size, any customization) |
| Account birthday | 1 free drink (no points required) |
| App-only drops | Early access to seasonal and limited releases |
Redeeming at 125 points for a large, heavily customized drink (say, a large Blended Rebel with Soft Top and sugar-free syrups) gives you significantly more value per point than redeeming for a small basic drink. The birthday drink requires no points at all — just a registered account with your birthday on file.
Price Comparison: Dutch Bros vs. the Competition
The full Dutch Bros menu with price structure holds up well against other drive-thru and specialty coffee chains, especially now that non-dairy milk swaps are free.
| Drink Type | Dutch Bros (Med) | Starbucks (Grande) | Dunkin’ (Med) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Latte | $4.50 | $5.45 | $3.99 |
| Cold Brew | $4.50 | $5.25 | $4.49 |
| Blended Specialty Drink | $5.75 | $6.45 | $4.99 |
| Energy Drink | $5.50 | $5.95 (Refresher) | $4.99 (Charged) |
| Non-Dairy Milk Upcharge | $0.00 | $0.70 | $0.50 |
On non-dairy milk alone, regular oat milk drinkers save roughly $250/year at Dutch Bros versus Starbucks if they’re visiting five days a week.
FAQ
Q: What is the most popular drink on the Dutch Bros menu?
The Golden Eagle has been the top-selling drink since 1992. It’s a breve latte combining espresso, half-and-half, vanilla syrup, and caramel sauce with a caramel drizzle. Both coffee beginners and long-time regulars tend to default to it.
Q: Is the Dutch Bros menu with prices the same at every location?
No. Franchise owners set prices based on their region, local costs, and market rates. The variance is typically $0.25–$0.75 perdrinkk, depending on the state. California and major metro locations run higher; Pacific Northwest locations tend to be at or below the national average. The Dutch Bros app will show you your nearest location’s current prices.
Q: What is the difference between a Freeze and a Frost?
A Freeze is a blended espresso drink — caffeinated, coffee-based, similar to a milkshake made with real espresso. A Frost is an ice cream-based blended shake with no coffee unless you specifically request a shot. They come in the same cup sizes but are fundamentally different drinks.
Q: Does Dutch Bros charge extra for oat milk or almond milk?
Not anymore. As of January 2025, Dutch Bros eliminated the non-dairy milk surcharge. Oat, almond, soy, and coconut milk are all free on any drink.
Q: What is the 9-1-1 at Dutch Bros, and how much caffeine is in it?
The 9-1-1 is a breve made with six shots of espresso and Irish cream syrup. It contains 384mg of caffeine — just under the FDA’s recommended daily caffeine limit of 400mg — in a single drink. It’s the highest-caffeine item on the standard menu and is named because regulars say it “saves lives” during all-nighters.
Q: Are sugar-free options free, or do they cost more?
Every flavored syrup at Dutch Bros has a sugar-free version at no extra charge. You just say “SF” before the flavor name when ordering. Sugar-free Rebels, for example, drop from roughly 280 calories to 180–200 calories per medium with no price difference.
Q: How much does a medium Golden Eagle cost?
A medium Golden Eagle costs around $5.25 at most locations, though it can go slightly higher in California and major cities. The small runs around $4.49 and the large around $6.00.
Q: What food does Dutch Bros serve?
The Dutch Bros food program is still rolling out. Current locations offer muffin tops, cookies, granola bars, and hot breakfast burritos. Breakfast items are typically available until 11 AM; bakery items are available all day. Food prices range from $1.50 for a granola bar to $5.50 for a large breakfast burrito. Not all locations carry food yet — check the app to confirm your local store’s options.
Q: What is Soft Top, and is it worth ordering?
Soft Top is Dutch Bros’ proprietary topping — lighter and sweeter than standard whipped cream, with a texture that holds up better on cold drinks. It costs $0.50–$0.75 extra. On blended Rebels and Freezes, most regulars consider it mandatory. On hot drinks, standard whipped cream is usually the better call since Soft Top is designed for cold applications.
Q: How does the Dutch Bros rewards program work?
You earn points on every purchase through the Dutch Bros app. At 125 points, you can redeem a free drink in any size with any customization. Your birthday drink is completely separate — it’s a free drink added to your account annually and doesn’t require a points balance.
Final Word
If you’re approaching the Dutch Bros menu with price in mind as your primary filter, the honest answer is that most drinks come in under what you’d pay at Starbucks for a comparable order — and with free non-dairy milk swaps and sugar-free syrups, the customization ceiling is high without the bill climbing unexpectedly. The Golden Eagle is the safe first order. The cold brew is the everyday value pick. The Rebels are where the menu gets genuinely fun. And the secret menu exists mostly as proof that Dutch Bros built a system open enough that customers enjoy experimenting inside it.
For real-time pricing at your specific location, the Dutch Bros app is the most reliable source — it shows current menu items, local prices, and your rewards balance in one place.
