What Is a Dutch Bros Rebel
The Rebel is Dutch Bros’ very own blend of energy drinks. Think Red Bull but are made by Dutch Bros.
The Rebel is what Dutch Bros uses for its very popular Rebel drinks. These drinks are made by adding flavored syrup to the Rebel energy drink to create a refreshing and energizing drink.
The flavors of Dutch Bros Rebel drinks are typically fruity with lime, blue raspberry, and strawberry as some of the more popular flavors.
With the Rebel drinks, you can customize how much syrup you want in your drink. You can also have the Rebel drinks sugar-free if you are limiting your sugar intake as well.
Caffeine Content in a Dutch Bros Rebel
So, how much caffeine content is in a can of Rebel? The Rebel energy drink contains 80 mg of caffeine per 8.40 fl oz (248 ml). This is roughly the same amount of caffeine in a 250 ml Red Bull can.
According to the FDA, the recommended caffeine intake per day is 400 mg and that’s about 5 8.4 fl oz cans of Rebel.
If you order a Rebel drink at Dutch Bros, you won’t only get 80 mg of caffeine in your drink. The caffeine content in a Rebel drink could be lesser or higher depending on the size that you want to order.
Caffeine Content in Dutch Bros Rebel Drinks
As I mentioned earlier, the caffeine content of a Dutch Bros Rebel drink will depend on its size. It can also depend on whether you want it iced or blended.
Let’s take a look at some of the Rebel drinks and see what their caffeine content is.
Plain Blended Rebel
If you just want the Rebel without the extra flavors, you can get the plain blended Rebel.

Most Rebel drinks have 70 mg of caffeine for a small iced drink and 76 mg for small blended drinks. If you are not drinking multiple Dutch Bros Rebel drinks throughout the day, your caffeine intake will still be under the caffeine intake recommended by the FDA.
However, if you consume other caffeinated drinks throughout the day, like soda and coffee, you might want to stick to smaller drinks so you don’t go over the recommended caffeine intake.
Tips for Managing Your Caffeine Intake
If you are trying to limit your caffeine intake, it might not be possible to do so with a Rebel drink since Dutch Bros uses a can of Rebel for the Rebel drinks.
But, you can get a Dutch Bros Sparkling Soda or Lemonade and ask the broista to add a shot or two of Rebel. This way you still get the Rebel flavor but with less caffeine.
If you really like the Rebel drinks but still want to manage your caffeine intake, you can order the smallest Rebel drinks. These drinks have less caffeine content than the larger cup sizes.
You also want to consider what kind of foods you eat in a day. If you eat food with caffeine, this could also add up to your daily caffeine intake.
Wrapping Up
An 8.4 fl oz of Dutch Bros Rebel has 80 mg of caffeine and with the recommended daily caffeine intake of 400 mg, you’re safe to drink multiple cups a day. That is if you are a healthy person with no underlying issues.
Even if the amount of caffeine in a Dutch Bros Rebel is lower than the recommended caffeine intake, it is still best practice to limit yourself to one cup a day. This is because you might consume more drinks and food that have caffeine throughout the day.
If you consume too much caffeine, it could lead to headaches, diarrhea, dizziness, and even irritability. So, make sure to take note of how much caffeine you consume!
