Dutch Bros Rebel Prices, Sizes & Caffeine (2027)

The Rebel is Dutch Bros' own energy drink and the chain's biggest seller outside coffee. You pick a flavor, or several, and it is served iced or blended into a slushie, with optional extras like Soft Top, boba and flavor floats. Rebels come in dozens of flavors and a sugar-free version, so they suit almost everyone who wants energy without coffee. This guide covers typical prices in every size, official caffeine and calories from the Dutch Bros nutrition guide, and how to get the most for your money.

Prices are typical U.S. figures before tax. Check your stand in the Dutch Bros app. For flavor descriptions, see our Rebel flavors guide.

Dutch Bros Rebel prices

Most stands charge the same for every flavor, so a Shark Attack costs the same as a plain Strawberry Rebel. 2026 reports put iced Rebels between $4.75-$5.50 for a small and $6.25-$7.50 for a large. A July 2026 Austin price check by The Takeout found a 16 oz Vampire Slayer Rebel at $4.75, compared with $6.25 for a similar Starbucks energy Refresher.

Rebel caffeine and calories (official)

Caffeine in an iced Rebel scales with the cup: about 76 to 80 mg in a small, 114 mg in a medium and 151 mg in a large. Blended Rebels have less caffeine than iced at each size (for example, 100 mg in a medium blended Shark Attack) because more of the cup is ice blend, but they have far more sugar. A medium blended Shark Attack has 125 g of sugar, against 77 g iced and zero in a zero sugar Rebel.

Compare this with coffee in our caffeine chart: a medium Rebel has a little more than a medium latte but much less than a medium cold brew (226 mg).

Iced vs blended Rebel

Iced Rebels are poured over ice and are lighter and more refreshing. Blended Rebels are slushies, thicker and sweeter, and cost about 50 cents more. If you are watching sugar or want more caffeine per dollar, iced wins. If you want a frozen treat on a hot day, blended is the fun choice. Many people order blended with Soft Top for a creamsicle effect.

Most popular Rebel flavors

The official menu lists more than 20 Rebels, including Aftershock, Double Rainbro, Dragon Slayer, Dino Egg, Electric Berry, Hyperchrome, Midnight, OG Gummy Bear, Palm Beach, Peach, Peach Ring, Shark Attack, Strawberry, Watermelon, Tigers Blood and Vampire Slayer, plus Zero Sugar versions of Strawberry, Double Rainbro, Pink Flamingo, Tigers Blood and Peach Vanilla. Dutch Bros describes Shark Attack as blue raspberry, coconut and lime with a pomegranate flavor float, and Aftershock as strawberry, blackberry, raspberry and lime.

Rebel add-ons and their cost

A medium Rebel with Soft Top and boba can cost around $7, which is more than a large plain Rebel. If you love extras, consider using the 325-point Rewards drink. See our add-on prices.

How to get the best value

The large iced Rebel is the best value per ounce at about 21 cents an ounce, and it has the most caffeine. If you just want a quick lift, a small is enough. For energy with almost no calories, choose a Zero Sugar Rebel or a Myst Energy Refresher, which has 95 mg of caffeine and 20 calories in a medium plain.

Who should be careful with Rebels

Rebels are energy drinks, so they are not recommended for children, pregnant people or anyone sensitive to caffeine. Do not combine a large Rebel with a strong coffee in the same morning. The sugar in regular Rebels is also high: a large iced Shark Attack has 111 g. The Zero Sugar Rebels are the way to keep the flavor without the sugar. See sugar-free drinks.

Rebel prices compared with other energy drinks

At about $5.75 for a 24 oz medium, a Rebel works out to roughly 24 cents an ounce, and the large drops to about 21 cents. That is competitive with buying canned energy drinks at a convenience store, and you get a customized, freshly made drink. Compared with coffee shop energy drinks, Rebels are usually cheaper: The Takeout's Austin check found a 16 oz Rebel $1.50 cheaper than a comparable Starbucks Refresher.
