If you’re a fan of Dutch Bros’ Fall Menu, you’ve likely tried their delicious and refreshing Caramel Apple Rebel. This drink combines the tartness of green apple with the rich sweetness of salted caramel, all mixed into a bubbly energy drink base. The good news? You can easily make this at home with just a few key ingredients!
Let’s walk through the ingredients you’ll need to make this drink for half the price at home!
Caramel Apple Rebel Ingredients
- Green Apple Syrup: Dutch Bros uses the Torani brand for their syrups, so you would need the Torani Green Apple Syrup to perfectly replicate this drink at home. Opt for the Torani Sugar Free Green Apple Syrup for a lower sugar option.
- Salted Caramel Syrup: This Caramel Apple Rebel also uses the Torani Salted Caramel Syrup. Opt for the Sugar Free Salted Caramel Syrup for a lower sugar option.
- Rebel Energy Base: Dutch Bros uses their own carbonated energy drink known as Rebel. For an at home Rebel, you can use a Red Bull Energy Drink (regular or sugar-free), or you could use 1-2 ounces of an energy base like Next Level Energy or Lotus Energy for the energy portion and then add carbonated water.
- Ice: You need ice since this is an iced beverage.
- Green Apple & Salted Caramel Float: Dutch Bros simply pours more of both the Torani Green Apple Syrup and the Torani Salted Caramel Syrup overtop to create that cool layered effect.
How To Make a Dutch Bros Caramel Apple Rebel At Home:
- To a cup add Torani Green Apple Syrup, Torani Salted Caramel Syrup, your energy drink of choice, and ice.
- Stir to combine, then gently pour more Torani Green Apple Syrup and Torani Salted Caramel Syrup over the top of the drink, and enjoy!
How Can I Make This As a Blended Caramel Apple Rebel?
Add all the same ingredients as the regular rebel into a blender, and blend until smooth. Pour the blended mixture into a cup, and top with more Torani Green Apple Syrup and Torani Salted Caramel Syrup.
Can I Make This As a Lemonade?
YES! Absolutely! Simply swap the Red Bull for lemonade for a Dutch Bros Caramel Apple Lemonade! You could also make this a charged lemonade with caffeine by doing half lemonade, half Red Bull or by using lemonade and one ounce of an Energy Base.
How Can I Make This Lower Sugar or Calories?
For a lower sugar or lower calorie Caramel Apple Rebel, make as many modifications are you’d like to below:
