Does Dutch Bros use Red Bull? This is one of the most common questions about Dutch Bros energy drinks. The short answer: Dutch Bros uses its own energy drink, called Rebel, and Red Bull is not on the Dutch Bros menu.
Quick answer: Dutch Bros calls Rebel its “exclusive” energy drink. Every Rebel drink on the menu (iced, blended or zero sugar) is made with Rebel, not Red Bull. A Medium iced Rebel has 115 mg of caffeine, and a Medium Zero Sugar Rebel has 85 mg, according to dutchbros.com.

Is the Dutch Bros Rebel the Same as Red Bull?
No. In its own announcements, Dutch Bros describes Rebel as “our exclusive Dutch Bros Rebel energy drink.” It is Dutch Bros’ house energy drink, mixed with flavor syrups, fruit and toppings to make drinks like Tiger’s Blood, Double Rainbro and Dragon Slayer. We checked every drink page on the official Dutch Bros menu on 20 October 2026 and found no drink made with Red Bull.
