Dutch Bros Red Bull Drinks Confusion
Let’s get the facts straight. Dutch Bros have their own brand of energy drinks called Blue Rebel Energy Drink. They don’t use Red Bull in their drinks!
The ingredients and taste are very similar to Red Bull, but it has moderate caffeine content.
You can purchase the Rebel in all Dutch Bros locations. Unfortunately, as of now, Blue Rebel can’t be found online or in supermarkets.
Dutch Bros Rebels come in original blend or sugar-free. You can find separate drinks on their menu that include Rebel and other add-ons. Rebel-based drinks can be iced or even blended like a slushie.
You can add syrups, flavor shots, drizzles, and other toppings to create a new flavor.
Red Bull vs. Dutch Bros Rebel
How do these two compare? Some argue that Rebels taste like Red Bull, and we can see why.
Both drinks contain a similar amount of caffeine and sugar. Red Bull and Rebel both have a sugar-free version.
They also come in identical sizes, which adds to the confusion. However, Rebels are available only at Dutch Bros stores.
11 Best Dutch Bros ‘Red Bull’ Drinks
Eager to give the Dutch Bros ‘Red Bull’ drinks (again they are actually called Rebels) a try? We’ve shortlisted some of the best ones to enhance your experience.
Even if you’re a long-time consumer, you’ve probably missed some of these flavors. Of course, you’re free to mix and match and create your personal favorite!
1. Shark Attack
Why We Like It:
Shark Attack is the tropical flavor you need. It combines the classic Blue Rebel with blue raspberry, lime, coconut, and it’s topped with pomegranate drizzle.
I recommend having it blended, or it won’t stay looking pretty for long. The layers will mix fast, and you won’t get that insta-worthy snap!
Flavor:
- Blue Raspberry
- Coconut
- Lime
- Pomegranate (Drizzle)
2. Cabana Rebel
Care for an alcohol-free Pina Colada? Then this flavor will be your next go-to.
The Cabana Rebel mends together Blue Rebel, pineapple, coconut, and it’s finished with a soft top. The top is a marshmallowy texture that adds bonus points to the vacation vibes of the drink.
Flavor:
- Coconut
- Pineapple
3. Day Dream
Why We Like It:
The ultimate drink to help you drift away from your daily troubles. The Daydream is a limited edition Rebel made with elderflower syrup and passion fruit.
It fuses floral and fruity notes and finishes them with a soft marshmallow-like top. I love the freshness of the elderflower and the hint of citrusy notes.
Flavor:
- Elderflower
- Passion Fruit
- Soft Top (Topping)
4. Dinosaur Egg
Dinasour Egg doesn’t sound appetizing, and the flavor combo doesn’t make sense on paper. But I think the taste is surreal!
The flavor combination includes blue raspberry Rebel and Unicorn blood. This is a mix of drizzles including strawberry, white chocolate, and almond. You can have it iced, but I prefer it blended.
Flavor:
- Blue Raspberry
- Strawberry (Drizzle)
- White Chocolate (Drizzle)
- Almond (Drizzle)
5. Dutch Mojito
Why We Like It:
Mint, lime, and coconut come together in this once a secret menu drink. Due to its popularity, it’s now part of the regular menu at Dutch Bros.
The flavor is minty and refreshing, just like the cocktail. However, there is a sweet coconut twist that makes all the difference.
Flavor:
- Coconut
- Lime
- Creme de Menthe
6. Orangesicle
Orangesicle was introduced in 2016, and it’s still among the most popular items on the menu. It’s perfect for those who like creamsicles, with an added caffeine dose.
I recommend adding extra vanilla and having it avalanche-style with ice cream. Treat your inner child with a flavor trip down memory lane!
Flavor:
- Orange
- Vanilla
7. Peach Rebel
Why We Like It:
Peach is the OG Rebel flavor and is perfect for those who don’t like many add-ons. It’s a simple flavor profile, but it never disappoints me.
Peach Rebel is made with classic Blue Rebel and peach syrup. It’s a fluid and refreshing drink, reminding us of a fizzy iced tea.
Flavor:
- Peach
8. Watermelon Rebel
The iced Watermelon Rebel is the ultimate summer poolside drink. It’s a seasonal offer at Dutch Bros that start as soon as the jackets fall off.
This drink features watermelon syrup and a soft pillowy top. It’s sweet, refreshing, and fragrant. Almost like a watermelon juice with an added kick!
Flavor:
- Watermelon
- Soft Top (Topping)
9. OG Gummy Bear
Why We Like It:
The OG Gummy Bear brings together pomegranate, passion fruit, watermelon, and grapefruit syrup. It tastes like a fizzy handful of gummy bears with a side of caffeine. It’s available iced, and you can even add cream!
But don’t confuse it with the regular Gummy Bear drink. That one is made with kiwi, lime, and white chocolate syrup.
Flavor:
- Watermelon
- Pomegranate
- Passion Fruit
- Grapefruit
10. Unicorn Blood
Unicorns are real at Dutch Bros, and they taste amazing. This Rebel combines white chocolate sauce, almond, and strawberry syrup to create the perfect sip.
Dutch Bros followed the pink drink trend that emerged in recent years and delivered a great drink. Not many Unicorn drinks come with caffeine, so this is a bonus!
Flavor:
- Strawberry
- White Chocolate
- Almond
11. Double Rainbro
Why We Like It:
The Double Rainbro Rebel is very much a product of the imagination of some bro-istas. It started as a secret menu drink, but quickly captivated the taste buds of many. So now you don’t need to learn a recipe because it’s a regular menu item.
The Double Rainbro combines classic Rebel, peach, coconut, and strawberry syrups.
Flavor:
- Strawberry
- Peach
- Coconut

Summary
Here’s something you might not know about Dutch Bros Red Bull drinks; they don’t contain Red Bull at all.
Dutch Bros uses their own energy drink called Rebel. They come in so many flavors that it’s hard to get sick of them!
Each features the same base, the Blue Rebel. As soon as these drinks hit the shelves, baristas mixed them with different sauces, drizzles, and syrups. This resulted in some of the best drinks on our list.
