Dutch Bros Caffeine Content, Every Drink Ranked by mg

Dutch Bros Caffeine Content, Every Drink Ranked by mg

Per Dutch Bros' own Nutritional Guide, a medium latte has 95 mg of caffeine and a large has 190 mg. An Americano runs 96 or 192 mg. Cold brew climbs to 151, 226, and 301 mg by size, and an iced medium Rebel energy drink lands between 114 and 115 mg. The most caffeinated item on the core menu is a large blended 9-1-1 at 440 mg.

The ranking below covers every core drink on the Dutch Bros menu, sorted from the highest caffeine per large serving to the lowest. Seasonal and limited-time drinks (pumpkin specials, Creepy Crawler) are excluded because their nutrition data uses a different column layout in the guide. Customizations like extra shots, decaf, or half-caf change the numbers. Dutch Bros' own disclaimer: "Caffeine is an approximate value."

Which Dutch Bros drink has the most caffeine?

On the standard menu, a large blended 9-1-1 lists 440 mg, followed by a large blended Double Torture at 415 mg. Both exceed the FDA's 400 mg daily guideline for most healthy adults in a single cup.

Below the 400 mg line but still high:

• Golden Eagle blended, large: 370 mg
• Mocha Freeze, large: 355 mg
• Caramelizer / White Chocolate Mocha blended, large: 345 mg
• Golden Eagle Cold Brew toasted, large: 320 mg
• Cold Brew, large: 301 mg
• Nitro Cold Brew (medium, only listed size): 295 mg
• 911 hot or iced (any size): 290 mg

If you want the most caffeine at Dutch Bros, go blended and go large: blended espresso drinks list more caffeine than their hot or iced versions, though blended Rebels list less than iced ones. For canned and chain energy drinks, see which energy drink has the most caffeine.

Why a small and a medium latte have the same caffeine

Every espresso-based drink in the guide lists identical caffeine for the small and medium sizes: 95 mg for a latte, 96 mg for an Americano. Jump to a large and the number doubles to 190 or 192 mg.

The 911 is even stranger: 290 mg at small, medium, and large, all the same. The Double Torture lists 190 mg for small and medium, then 290 mg for a large.

The guide's numbers imply that Dutch Bros pours the same espresso in a small and a medium, with the medium adding milk or mixer, and roughly twice that espresso in a large. Dutch Bros does not publish shot counts in this guide, so treat that as a reading of the numbers, not a recipe.

Cold brew and Nitro

Dutch Bros' plain cold brew runs 151 / 226 / 301 mg (small / medium / large). The Nitro Cold Brew appears in the guide at 295 mg for a medium only; no small or large is listed.

Flavored cold brews carry less. The Golden Eagle Cold Brew iced is 95 / 170 / 245 mg, and the Caramelizer Cold Brew iced is the same. Order them "toasted" and the caffeine climbs: Golden Eagle Cold Brew toasted reaches 170 / 245 / 320 mg, while the Caramelizer Cold Brew toasted runs 130 / 205 / 285 mg.

Rebel energy drinks

The Dutch Bros Rebel is the chain's branded energy drink, served iced or blended. Caffeine varies by flavor and format:

• Iced Rebel (Strawberry, Peach): 76 / 114 / 151 mg
• Iced Rebel (Tiger's Blood, Midnight): 80 / 115 / 150 mg
• Zero Sugar Strawberry Rebel, iced: 80 / 114 / 151 mg
• Blended flavored Rebels: 70 / 100 / 130 mg
• Plain Blended Rebel: 80 / 120 / 160 mg
• Zero Sugar Strawberry Rebel, blended: 57 / 80 / 114 mg

A medium iced Rebel sits between 114 and 115 mg. For how other chains' iced drinks compare, see caffeine in iced coffee. The canned Rebel's caffeine is not published in the nutrition guide.

Tea, chai, and Myst

Tea drinks at Dutch Bros sit well below espresso and energy territory:

• Chai: 25 / 35 / 45 mg hot; 20 / 25 / 35 mg iced
• Hot Green Tea: 40 / 40 / 80 mg
• Earl Grey: 50 / 50 / 100 mg
• Iced Sweet Tea: 35 / 55 / 70 mg
• Peach Black Tea, iced: 30 / 45 / 55 mg
• Peach Green Tea, iced: 25 / 35 / 45 mg
• Plain Myst: 10 / 22 / 33 mg

Like the espresso drinks, several teas list the same caffeine in small and medium (Earl Grey 50/50, Green Tea 40/40), then double at large. Myst is the lowest-caffeine item on the menu that still contains any.

Caffeine-free drinks at Dutch Bros

The nutrition guide lists 0 mg of caffeine for Dutch Cocoa, all lemonades, Dutch Sodas, smoothies, shakes, and chocolate milk. Dutch Bros also notes in a separate post that any espresso drink can be made with decaf espresso or ordered half-caf. Decaf and half-caf caffeine is not published in the guide or the post.

If you want zero caffeine and zero guesswork, stick to the drinks the guide marks at 0 mg. If 150 mg feels like a lot, starting with a tea or a Myst gives you a lighter option.

Why Roon stops at 80 mg

Roon contains 80 mg of caffeine per pouch, close to a small Dutch Bros latte (95 mg). The difference is what rides alongside it: 25 mg methylliberine (Dynamine) slows caffeine clearance, stretching a modest dose across six to eight hours instead of spiking and fading. A randomized crossover PK study (n=12) found methylliberine extended caffeine's half-life from 7.2 to 15 hours with no higher peak, but that study dosed 100 mg methylliberine + 150 mg caffeine, roughly 4x and 1.9x what a pouch contains, so the mechanism applies directionally, not at the study's exact scale (study). A 15-hour half-life also does not mean 15 hours of noticeable lift.

Want more than 80 mg? A second pouch brings you to 160 mg. The cap is 4 pouches per day, and every source of caffeine (pouches, lattes, cold brew) counts toward the FDA's 400 mg figure for healthy adults.

Who should watch Dutch Bros caffeine

The nutrition guide's own footer reads: "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR children, people sensitive to caffeine, pregnant or nursing women." The FDA states that 400 mg a day is an amount not generally associated with negative effects for most healthy adults, and that toxic effects like seizures can occur with rapid consumption of around 1,200 mg. Two large cold brews back to back would total 602 mg, well above 400 mg.

If you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, the FDA advises talking to your health care provider about caffeine. Anyone on medication or managing a health condition should do the same. Caffeine amounts are approximate, and individual tolerance varies.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much caffeine is in a Dutch Bros Rebel?

An iced medium Rebel contains 114 to 115 mg of caffeine, depending on the flavor. Small iced Rebels range from 76 to 80 mg, and a large iced Rebel is 150 to 151 mg. Blended Rebels carry less: a medium blended flavored Rebel has 100 mg. These figures come from Dutch Bros' published Nutritional Guide, not third-party estimates.

Does Dutch Bros cold brew have more caffeine than a latte?

Yes, at every size. A small cold brew has 151 mg versus a small latte's 95 mg. At large, the gap widens to 301 mg versus 190 mg.

How much caffeine is in a Dutch Bros 911?

A hot or iced 911 contains 290 mg at all three sizes (small, medium, and large). The blended version, written as 9-1-1 in the guide, varies by size: 250 mg small, 345 mg medium, and 440 mg large, making it the highest-caffeine drink on Dutch Bros' core menu.

Does Dutch Bros Myst have caffeine?

Plain Myst contains a small amount: 10 mg (small), 22 mg (medium), and 33 mg (large). It is the lowest-caffeine drink on the menu that is not caffeine-free. For zero caffeine, choose a lemonade, Dutch Soda, smoothie, or shake.

Does Dutch Bros publish cup sizes in ounces?

Not in its Nutritional Guide. The guide lists sizes as Kids, Small, Medium, and Large with no fluid-ounce equivalents. The dutchbros.com menu page does not list ounces either. Any per-ounce figures you see on other sites are third-party estimates.

Drive-Through Lift, Longer Afternoon

A large blended 9-1-1 hits 440 mg, but a bigger cup mostly raises the peak, not the tail. Roon takes the opposite approach: 80 mg caffeine, 60 mg L-theanine, 25 mg methylliberine (Dynamine), and 5 mg theacrine (TeaCrine) in a zero-nicotine, zero-sugar pouch you place under the lip. Methylliberine slows caffeine clearance, keeping a small-coffee dose working for six to eight hours with no jitters and no crash. (The PK study behind the mechanism used 100 mg methylliberine and 150 mg caffeine, about 4x and 1.9x a Roon pouch, so the window is directional, not the study's result.)

Finish your last pouch at least eight hours before you plan to sleep. Roon costs from $9.16 per tin with a subscription, as little as $0.61 per pouch. Roon is not a coffee replacement; it is a caffeine layer built for duration when the drive-through cup fades by 2 p.m. Try Roon.
