What are Dutch Bros shakes made of?

A vanilla ice-cream-style shake base, flavoured syrups or sauces, and ice, blended together and usually finished with whipped cream. It is a shake base rather than scooped ice cream, which is why the texture is smoother and lighter than a traditional thick milkshake.

Are Dutch Bros shakes made with ice cream?

Not scooped ice cream. They use a vanilla ice-cream-style base blended with syrup and ice. The result is closer to a soft, drinkable shake than a spoon-thick diner milkshake.

Do Dutch Bros shakes have caffeine?

No. A standard shake is a dairy base, syrup and ice — no coffee. Caffeine only enters if you ask for espresso or an energy add-in.

How much are shakes at Dutch Bros?

$6.00 small (16 oz), $7.00 medium (24 oz), $8.00 large (32 oz) — about a dollar above a Rebel or a hot cocoa at the same size. Prices vary by location.

Does Dutch Bros have a protein shake?

Dutch Bros stocks a protein milk — 2% milk with added milk protein — that can go into most drinks. See the protein coffee menu .

Are Dutch Bros shakes good?

They are the dessert end of the menu: sweet, creamy and customisable across two dozen off-menu builds. If you want something refreshing rather than rich, a smoothie or a Rebel is the better call.

Calories & caffeine

Shakes sit at the high end of the menu for calories. The dairy base does most of it, size scales it, and syrups and whipped cream stack on top — so a large with a Soft Top is a long way from a small ordered plain.

Caffeine is the opposite story: there is none in a standard shake, because there is no coffee in the base. For an exact figure on a specific build and size, use thecalories calculator, or see the fullnutrition facts breakdown.
