Dutch Bros Adds Matcha to National Menu: Menu Updates and Seasonal Additions
Drive-thru coffee stands spent two decades perfecting ultra-sweet espresso concoctions and proprietary canned energy drinks. Dutch Bros built a multi-billion-dollar brand largely on high-octane coffee blends, sugary flavored breves, and the proprietary Dutch Bros Rebel drink. Yet consumer habits have shifted decisively since 2024.
A growing demographic of drive-thru regulars actively avoids espresso acidity and synthetic taurine. They want clean focus. Green tea options long existed at Dutch Bros in the form of bagged Organic Green Tea or Peach Green Tea infusions, but those basic steeped beverages lacked the creamy, dessert-like texture that drives viral drive-thru culture. Matcha bridges that divide. It provides a naturally suspended, rich texture that holds up against heavy syrups and cold foam without requiring espresso shots.
