The Dutch Bros St. Patrick's Day drinks have been debuted by the brand as a series of refreshments perfect for satisfying consumer demand for deliciously festive ways to celebrate the springtime occasion.
The menu features two drinks including the Stout Kicker and the Emerald Rebel, which each offer a decidedly different taste experience but are each decidedly St. Paddy's-inspired. The Stout Kicker comes as a cheeky alcohol-free indulgence with a brown butter chocolate chip base alongside Irish cream and Soft Top. The Emerald Rebel takes a crisper, fruit-forward flavor into account with the brand's signature Rebel energy blend and blue raspberry, kiwi and sweet cream tasting notes.
The Dutch Bros St. Patrick's Day drinks are available now at all locations for a limited time.
