"When you think of Dutch Bros, endlessly customizable coffee drinks, energy-packed Rebel slushies, and a vast secret menu probably come to mind first. But the brand also offers a lineup of non-caffeinated frozen treats that often fly under the radar: its shakes.

Dutch Bros sells non-caffeinated shakes that are slush-style frozen drinks rather than traditional creamy milkshakes. The shakes come in 20-ounce and 10-ounce kid sizes priced at $5.95 and $3.55 respectively. Flavored syrups transform the icy base into tastes ranging from cotton candy to chocolate or vanilla. The offerings target underage customers as a playful introduction to the brand while also appealing to anyone avoiding caffeine. Taste testing with four children produced varied scores, with the top shake earning 10 points and the lowest earning four out of a 0–15 scale. Some niche flavors, such as Birthday Cake and cotton candy, proved overly sweet for some testers.
