"When dreaming of a frozen, blended coffee drink, many folks conjure images of the famous Starbucks' Frappuccinos: Creamy, icy concoctions that mimic milkshakes, but icier and packed with caffeine. But those well-loved Frapps aren't the only cool-kids on the java block. The much smaller Dutch Bros drive-thru coffee chain knows a thing or two about coffee lovers and what they crave, including its Blended Freeze drinks, the toe-to-toe competitors with Starbucks Frappuccinos."
"Lest you imagine a lower-key drink with a mere handful of iterations, let's set the record straight. Dutch Bros whips up at least 50 Blended Freeze flavor combinations, with new ones making debuts on a regular basis. Compare that to the Starbucks Frappuccino line with less than 20 renditions at a time, give or take depending on things like the season or special promotions."
Dutch Bros' Blended Freezes are espresso-based frozen beverages made by blending coffee, ice, and flavorings into a thick, smooth, slushy drink. The menu includes at least 50 flavor combinations, with new flavors introduced regularly, providing far more variety than the typical Starbucks Frappuccino lineup, which usually offers fewer than 20 renditions at once. Both brands deliver sweet, customizable, chilled caffeination that sits between a smoothie and a milkshake in texture and sweetness. Dutch Bros emphasizes experimentation and seasonal rotations, while both chains maintain devoted customer bases and compete on quality, ingredients, flavor selection, and customization.
