If you’ve ever pulled up to a Dutch Bros drive thru and found the whole menu board rearranged since your last visit, you already know how this works. Dutch Bros seasonal drinks change constantly, and that’s the point. The chain treats its limited time menu like a rotating art project, swapping in new flavors every few months so there’s always a reason to come back.
At a glance:
Prices generally run $4 to $9 depending on size and base, and calories vary widely, from under 150 for a Myst Refresher to over 1,000 for a large blended Freeze or shake.
The current summer 2026 lineup is bigger than most sites are reporting, it includes six drink families: Cosmic Cookie Dough, Mangonada, Strawberry Colada, Strawberry Horchata Chai, Supernova, and Stardust.
Nearly every family comes in multiple bases, Rebel, Lemonade, Fizz, and the new Myst Energy Refresher line.

What Makes Dutch Bros Seasonal Drinks Different
Seasonal drinks are limited time beverages built around a theme, whether that’s a season, a holiday, or a flavor trend the brand wants to test. Unlike the core Dutch Bros menu, which stays mostly consistent year round, seasonal items disappear once the promotional window ends or supplies run out.
What sets Dutch Bros apart is how far this idea extends. Nearly every seasonal flavor concept shows up across several bases at once, an iced Rebel, a blended Lemonade, a Fizz, sometimes even a Freeze or a shake, all built from the same core flavor. That’s a big reason the seasonal menu feels so much bigger than a single flavor name suggests.
The Real Dutch Bros Summer 2026 Lineup
This is the part worth getting right, since a lot of menu guides are still only naming one or two summer drinks. Based on the current Dutch Bros app, the summer 2026 lineup includes six distinct drink families, most available across four or more bases each.
Cosmic Cookie Dough
Chocolate chip cookie dough and a chocolate swirl, topped with Soft Top and actual cookie dough pieces. This is the richest, most dessert-leaning family in the lineup, available as a Shake, an Iced Mocha, an Iced Protein Latte, a Cold Brew with cream, an Iced Latte, and a Freeze. It contains milk, soy, and wheat, worth knowing if you’re checking allergens.
Mangonada
A mango base topped with real strawberry fruit and a hint of TajÃn, leaning tart and a little spicy rather than straightforwardly sweet. Available as an Iced Lemonade, a Blended Lemonade, an Iced Rebel, and a Blended Rebel.
Strawberry Colada
A tropical build of coconut, pineapple, and real strawberry fruit, similar to the version that returned last summer. It’s available as an Iced Lemonade, a Blended Lemonade, an Iced Rebel, and a Blended Rebel, with Soft Top as an add-on on several builds.
Strawberry Horchata Chai
Chai, strawberry, white chocolate, and cinnamon, finished with 2% milk, Soft Top, and cinnamon sprinkles. This one didn’t appear in earlier seasonal roundups, it’s a genuinely new chai-based addition to the summer lineup rather than a returning flavor.
Supernova
Peach, passion fruit, and orange, topped with strawberry fruit and, on the Fizz version, a citrus twist. Available as a Fizz, a Blended Lemonade, an Iced Lemonade, an Iced Rebel, a Blended Rebel, and a Myst Energy Refresher.
Stardust
Strawberry and watermelon, topped with freeze-dried fruity candy and a citrus twist on the Fizz version. Available across the same base lineup as Supernova, Fizz, Blended Lemonade, Iced Lemonade, Iced Rebel, Blended Rebel, and a Myst Energy Refresher.
A previous version of this guide also listed Dulce de Leche as part of the summer lineup, a caramel and white chocolate drink with cinnamon and sweet cream. It isn’t confirmed in this round of app data, so treat it as possibly rotated out rather than currently guaranteed, and check your local app before ordering it specifically.
Myst Energy Refreshers
Myst is a genuinely new drink format for Dutch Bros, not just a new flavor inside an existing category. It’s lighter and more refreshment-focused than the classic Rebel energy line, built with electrolytes from magnesium and antioxidants from vitamin C rather than the heavier energy drink base. Both Supernova and Stardust currently have a Myst Energy Refresher option, and both run noticeably lower in calories than the Rebel or blended versions of the same flavor, generally under 220 calories even at a large size.
Dutch Bros Seasonal Nutrition Info by Drink
The numbers below come directly from the Dutch Bros app’s nutrition pages for each drink, medium size, since that’s the most consistent size for comparing across the lineup. Treat these as a close reference rather than an exact figure for every cup, toppings and milk swaps change the totals, and a couple of the values below looked like possible data entry inconsistencies in the app itself, flagged where that’s the case.
| Drink (Medium) | Calories | Sugar | Caffeine | Protein |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cosmic Cookie Dough Shake | 910 | 131g | 0mg | 13g |
| Cosmic Cookie Dough Iced Mocha | 630 | 83g | 95mg | 12g |
| Cosmic Cookie Dough Iced Protein Latte | 550 | 24g | 95mg | 20g |
| Cosmic Cookie Dough Freeze | 880 | 122g | 230mg | 17g |
| Mangonada Iced Lemonade | 280 | 64g | 0mg | 0g |
| Mangonada Blended Lemonade | 370 | 120g | 0mg | 0g |
| Strawberry Colada Iced Lemonade | 380 | 82g | 0mg | 1g |
| Strawberry Colada Blended Lemonade | 590 | 122g | 0mg | 1g |
| Strawberry Colada Blended Rebel | 550 | 127g | 90mg | 2g |
| Supernova Fizz | 310 | 74g | 0mg | 0g |
| Supernova Iced Rebel | 290 | 65g | 115mg | 1g |
| Supernova Myst Energy Refresher | 120 to 160 | 27g | 95mg | 0g |
| Stardust Fizz | 310 | 72g | 0mg | 0g |
| Stardust Iced Rebel | 300 | 68g | 115mg | 1g |
| Stardust Myst Energy Refresher | 140 | 27g | 95mg | 0g |
A few entries worth flagging rather than guessing on: the app’s listing for Mangonada Blended Rebel showed a sugar jump from 0g at small and medium up to 153g at large, which doesn’t follow a normal scaling pattern and is worth double checking in the app directly before publishing an exact figure. The same goes for Stardust Blended Rebel, where the medium size showed a calorie jump that looked inconsistent with the small and large values around it. Nutrition data in-app can occasionally have entry errors like this, so when a number looks like an outlier, it’s worth verifying before you rely on it.
Dutch Bros Seasonal Drinks: Prices
Because pricing is set at the franchise level, Dutch Bros doesn’t publish one universal price list, and totals shift based on size, base, and toppings. Across the families above, prices generally run:
- Small: roughly $4.00 to $6.50
- Medium: roughly $5.00 to $8.00
- Large: roughly $6.00 to $9.00
Fizz and Iced Lemonade builds tend to sit at the lower end of that range, while Cosmic Cookie Dough shakes, freezes, and blended Rebels with extra toppings run highest. For an exact total on a specific build, the calorie calculator and cart total in the app is the most reliable source, since per-size pricing varies enough by topping and location that a printed table can go stale fast.
Dutch Bros Seasonal Release Schedule
Dutch Bros generally refreshes its seasonal lineup on a quarterly rhythm, though exact dates shift a bit each year.
| Season | Typical Launch Window | 2026 Theme |
|---|---|---|
| Winter/Valentine’s | Late January to February | Dutch Luv, romantic and dessert-inspired drinks |
| Spring | March to April | Light, fruity Rebels and lemonades |
| Summer | Late April to May | Tropical Rebels, energy refreshers, iced lemonades |
| Fall | Late August to September | Pumpkin, caramel, and spiced chai flavors |
| Winter Holiday | Late November to December | Peppermint, chocolate, and festive Soft Top toppings |
Dutch Bros doesn’t publish an official annual calendar, but the brand has stuck close to this pattern for several years running, so it’s a reasonable way to predict when a favorite flavor might reappear.
What’s Coming Next: Dutch Bros Fall 2026 Menu
Dutch Bros typically announces its fall lineup in mid-August, with drinks landing at stores in the final week of the month. As of this writing, fall 2026 hasn’t been officially announced, so treat any specific fall drink names circulating online as speculation rather than confirmed fact.
Recent fall lineups have centered on Caramel Pumpkin Brûlée, Cookie Butter Latte, and a new fall Rebel flavor each year, most recently a cherry flavored energy drink. This guide will be updated once Dutch Bros makes an official announcement.
How to Customize Your Seasonal Drink
Part of what keeps people coming back is how much control you have over the final cup:
- Pick your base. Coffee, cold brew, tea, chai, Rebel energy, lemonade, or Myst.
- Choose your milk. 2%, breve, protein milk, or non-dairy options like oat or almond.
- Set your sweetness. Half sweet, regular, or extra sweet.
- Add flavor shots. Most syrups come in regular and sugar-free versions.
- Pick a drizzle. Caramel, chocolate, or white chocolate.
- Choose a topping. Soft Top, whipped cream, or seasonal add-ins like cookie dough pieces or freeze-dried fruity candy.
Extra flavor shots, milk swaps, and specialty toppings usually add a small upcharge, and the exact amount varies by location.
Can You Order Dutch Bros Seasonal Drinks Off Season?
Sometimes. This isn’t official policy and isn’t guaranteed at every location, but it often comes down to whether the syrups are still in stock. Flavors built from ingredients stocked year round, like most fruit syrups, are the easiest to recreate once a season ends. Drinks depending on limited run ingredients, like specific seasonal toppings or candy pieces, are harder to bring back once they’re gone. If there’s a seasonal drink you’re missing, describing the flavor combination to your broista is usually more productive than assuming it’s unavailable.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often does Dutch Bros change its seasonal menu?
Roughly every three months, aligned with winter, spring, summer, and fall, plus a separate Valentine’s Day and winter holiday rollout.
Can I still get a seasonal drink after its season ends?
Sometimes. If the syrups used in that drink are stocked year round, many locations can recreate it on request. Drinks built on limited run ingredients are harder to bring back once they sell out.
Are Dutch Bros seasonal drinks more expensive than regular menu items?
Slightly, in some cases. Specialty syrups, toppings like Soft Top, and seasonal add-ins can push the price a little higher than a standard latte or Rebel of the same size.
Can seasonal drinks be made sugar-free or dairy-free?
Most can. Sugar-free syrup versions are available for the majority of flavors, and you can swap in oat, almond, or coconut milk on nearly any seasonal build.
When will the Dutch Bros fall 2026 menu be announced?
Based on past years, expect an official announcement in mid-August, with drinks hitting stores in the last week of the month.
Key Takeaways
- The real summer 2026 lineup has six drink families, not just one or two, each built across multiple bases.

The Bottom Line
The summer 2026 seasonal menu is bigger and more varied than most guides are giving it credit for. If you want something light, the Fizz and Myst Energy Refresher builds run lowest in calories and caffeine. If you want something indulgent, the Cosmic Cookie Dough Shake and Freeze are the richest options in the current lineup. For the full year round menu behind any of these seasonal bases, browse the complete Dutch Bros menu.
