The top 5 in detail

2. Caramelizer. A mocha made with caramel sauce and chocolate milk. It is sweeter and more chocolatey than the Golden Eagle and very popular iced. See the Caramelizer guide.

3. Shark Attack Rebel. Blue raspberry, coconut and lime in a Rebel energy drink, with a pomegranate flavor float. It is bright, tropical and one of the most photographed drinks on the menu. See Rebel flavors.

4. Annihilator. A chocolate macadamia nut breve that tastes like a candy bar. Great hot in winter and iced in summer. Read the Annihilator guide.

5. Kicker. An Irish cream breve that is smooth and mellow. It is the drink to pick if you want something creamy that is not too sweet.

Drinks to skip if you are new

Some drinks are better once you know your taste. Very sweet secret menu combinations can be overwhelming as a first drink. The 9-1-1 is very strong. Protein coffee costs more and is best if you specifically want protein. Start with one of the top five above, then branch out. Once you know whether you like caramel, chocolate, fruity or creamy flavors, our secret menu guide will help you find more drinks you will love.

Best drinks by time of day

Morning calls for a medium iced Golden Eagle or a cold brew with Soft Top. Midday, a Rebel or Myst gives energy without a heavy coffee feeling. Late afternoon is ideal for a chai or iced green tea, which have far less caffeine. Evenings and family outings suit lemonades, sodas, smoothies and shakes, which are all caffeine-free. Matching the drink to the time of day is the easiest way to enjoy Dutch Bros without a late-night caffeine buzz.
