How We Define "Low Caffeine" at Dutch Bros
The threshold and reference size used on this page — and what to keep in mind when comparing across drinks.
Threshold: 100 mg or less at Small
This page uses Small as the reference size because it gives the most conservative caffeine reading for any drink. Most Dutch Bros drinks have significantly more caffeine than this — particularly the espresso and cold brew-based options. Drinks that appear here are genuinely lower-caffeine options for this chain.
Larger sizes contain significantly more caffeine
At Dutch Bros, moving from Small to Medium or Large can add 50–150 mg of caffeine depending on the drink. A drink that qualifies as low caffeine at Small may push well above 100 mg at Large. Click through to each drink page for the full size-by-size caffeine breakdown.
Hot and iced may differ in caffeine
For drinks available in both hot and iced, caffeine content may differ slightly between serving styles. The value shown on each card is for the first available variant at Small size. Click through for a direct hot vs iced caffeine comparison on each drink page.
Caffeine comes from the coffee base only
Switching between milk options, syrups, or sweeteners has no effect on caffeine content. Caffeine comes entirely from espresso shots, cold brew, or tea in the base recipe. The only customisation that changes caffeine is adding or removing shots.

Understanding Dutch Bros' menu makes it easier to find the lower-caffeine options — and to know when a drink that looks modest is actually quite strong.
Most espresso drinks use double shots by default
Unlike some chains that default to a single shot at smaller sizes, Dutch Bros typically starts drinks at two espresso shots regardless of size. This pushes caffeine up from the baseline compared to other chains at the same size.
Cold brew is among the highest-caffeine options
Dutch Bros Cold Brew is one of the highest-caffeine drinks on their menu, with large sizes exceeding 300 mg. Even at Small, cold brew typically contains significantly more caffeine than a standard espresso drink. It does not appear on this list.
Rebel energy drinks contain caffeine from the base
Dutch Bros Rebel drinks use an energy drink base that already contains caffeine before any espresso is added. Sugar-free Rebel versions still contain caffeine from the base. Most Rebel drinks do not appear on this low caffeine list.
