Here’s What To Order At Dutch Bros

Dutch Bros Coffee was founded in 1922 by brothers Dane and Travis Boersma, and many on the West Coast would argue that this coffee shop reigns supreme. This coffee chain values speed, high-quality products, excellent customer service, and good vibes, but for those who are unfamiliar with the menu, it can feel a bit overwhelming. From its line of Dutch Faves, protein coffees, and Rebel Energy Drinks to the smoothies, sparkling sodas, non-coffee drinks, and more, there are so many great beverages to try, but here are the best beverages to order that are sure to please as you sip your way through summer. 

Vanilla Chai

I am always on the lookout for a good chai beverage, and Dutch Bros’ seasonal chai lattes have a huge following on social media. Its vanilla chai, however, is available year-round, and it’s a must-try on the menu. The comforting flavors of cardamom and cinnamon pair beautifully with the sweet vanilla, and it’s the perfect drink for those of us who just can’t wait for fall. Just make sure you don’t forget to add the soft top!

Palm Beach Iced Tea

Treat your tastebuds with the sweet and tart Dutch Bros’ Palm Beach Tea! This drink is great because you can choose from either the green tea or black tea with pomegranate and peach syrup, and while this juicy and refreshing tea is perfect for a hot summer day, you can also choose to enjoy a hot version instead.

Mangonada Rebel Blended

The Mangonado Rebel energy drink from Dutch Bros is the perfect drink to start off your summer with. Spicy drinks have been popping up on QSR menus with drinks like Starbucks Spicy Lemonade Refreshers, but this drink perfects the classic sweet and spicy combination of mango, strawberry, and real tajin powder. Mangonada is a Mexican dessert made of mango sorbet and chamoy, topped with chili powder, Dutch Bros Mangonada Rebel is inspired by this popular dessert, but it’s even better because it comes with caffeine.

Iced Salted Caramel Protein Latte

Protein coffee drinks have become popular over the last couple of years, and the Dutch Bros version is top-notch. This coffee beverage uses the salted caramel syrup, espresso, and fortified protein milk, which is made with 2% milk and casein-based protein, and contains 20 grams of protein per 8 ounces, and is finished with caramel drizzle. With up to 43 grams of protein, lots of calcium, and no added sugars, this drink won’t make you sacrifice the feeling of treating yourself while hitting some of your daily protein goals.

Watermelon Fizz Sparkling Soda

One of the reasons I love the Dutch Bros menu is the wide variety of drinks that aren’t the same old recipes you’ll find at most other cafes. Their summer menu is colorful, vibrant, and looks so refreshing. The Watermelon Fizz is the next item on our list that is the perfect drink to cool you down this summer. Made with watermelon-infused sparkling water and strawberry fruit with a splash of lemonade, it’s easy to picture yourself sipping one of these while you sit out at the pool.

Blended Churro Freeze

If you are someone who prefers their coffee cold, creamy, and sweet, I recommend the Blended Churro Freeze on your next visit. This drink is made with blended caramel coffee, and topped with cinnamon sugar Soft Top and a churro bit topping. The cinnamon and vanilla are a delicious pairing in this beverage with the coffee, and the churro bit topping contrasts the creamy head of the soft top to create a perfect summer treat.

9-1-1

This drink is from the Dutch Faves list and is for the more seasoned coffee drinkers who can really handle their caffeine. With six shots of espresso and 288 milligrams of caffeine, the 9-1-1 uses Breve (half and half) and Irish cream syrup, which mellows out the intense coffee flavor of the drink. You can enjoy this drink hot, iced, or blended, but be ready to be wired the rest of your day.

Poppin’ Boba Fire Lizard Rebel

Lastly, the Dutch Bros Poppin’ Boba Fire Lizard Rebel is another fruity and sweet addition to the menu and should definitely be tried, especially if you’re feeling like you’re stuck in a rut when it comes to your coffee order. Featuring strawberry and tropical fruit flavors with strawberry boba pearls, this drink looks fun, colorful, and embodies the perfect West Coast summer vibes.
