What’s in Dutch Bros Christmas Morning?

The Dutch Bros’ Christmas Morning is a chai breve with white chocolate syrup added.

A breve is a drink made with half-and-half, so the original contains this type of milk. Substitute your milk of choice to create the perfect drink to celebrate the holiday season!

And you can enjoy it as either a cold or hot drink. So, even on those hot summer days, you can enjoy a bit of holiday magic!

What does Christmas Morning taste like?

Do you know that feeling you get when the weather turns chilly, and the smell of pine fills the air?

When Christmas lights around your neighborhood flip on for the first time of the season?

Or when the holiday coffee drinks at your favorite coffee chain finally become available again?

That’s precisely what Christmas Morning tastes like!

It’s sweet, creamy, and delightfully comforting. This drink is easily in the running for the best Dutch Bros drink!

What is a chai latte?

Chai is a type of spiced tea that originated in India. It is made with black tea and often combined with milk or sweeteners. 

But what sets chai apart from your standard cup of tea is the spices.

There are many different variations, but spices such as cardamom, cloves, ginger, cinnamon, and even black pepper give the drink its signature comforting flavor.

And by adding steamed milk with a touch of foam, the warm and fuzzy feelings inspired by this drink are tripled.

It’s almost like drinking the feeling you get when wearing your favorite cozy sweater. 

Although most coffee shops offer chai lattes on their menu, you can create your own at home. You can also buy chai instant powder mix or liquid chai with black tea and spices.

All you have to do is add the milk of your choice and enjoy!

Does Dutch Bros have other chai tea drinks?

The iconic coffee shop does serve different varieties of chai.

One of the more decadent versions is the Golden Eagle Breve. This drink also contains chai with half-and-half. But it’s infused with a double whammy of flavor in the form of vanilla and caramel syrups. And the whole thing is obviously topped off with whipped cream and caramel drizzle.

The white chocolate chai is another classic on the Dutch Bros menu. Whether it’s prepared hot or cold, this drink is guaranteed to delight your taste buds! Complete the drink by adding milk of your choice.

For an extra treat, make sure to order the soft top. It’s a delightfully decadent version of whipped cream that has slightly more substance and flavor. 

And try a vanilla chai to round out your Dutch Bros chai drinks experience.

Dutch Bros Coffee Holiday Drinks

Is there anything that screams holiday more than a mistletoe-inspired drink served up in a green and red cup covered with tiny Christmas trees? I think not.

Here are some of the best drinks at Dutch Bros to put you in the holiday spirit!

Peppermint Bliss Cold Brew

This drink is the perfect fusion of cold brew coffee and the flavor of a peppermint candy cane. It’s great for those days when you need a kick of caffeine and a hint of holiday flavor.

French Toast Breve

White chocolate, cinnamon, and brown sugar take center stage in this drink straight off the Dutch Bros secret menu. Although not strictly a holiday drink, who doesn’t think of Christmas when they hear “French toast?”

Caramel Nog

This holiday favorite is an eggnog latte with caramel syrup added. It’s guaranteed to bring a hint of the holidays with that very first sip!

Pumpkin Pie Breve

Combining the different flavors of pumpkin and caramel, this luscious drink is the very definition of decadent.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a breve?

A breve is a type of coffee drink that is made with half and half instead of milk. This makes the drink richer and creamier than a regular latte. 

Can you use any kind of milk in Dutch Bros Christmas Morning?

The drink is traditionally made with half-and-half, but you can substitute any milk.

Almond milk adds a bit of nutty flavor to the drink that pairs well with the flavors of nutmeg and cinnamon. You can also consider using oat or lactose-free milk if regular milk gives you trouble.

Whole milk would also add extra flavor and creaminess to the drink.

Are there chai variations?

You may have heard of dirty chais. These drinks are basically a chai latte with added espresso shots.

Can you make Dutch Bros Christmas Morning iced?

Christmas Morning is a delightful holiday favorite regardless of whether it’s served hot or cold.

Can you order Christmas Morning at other coffee shops?

Yes! Ask for a chai latte with the milk of your choice, and then request a shot or two of white chocolate syrup.

Are there other chai brands?

Many coffee shops base their drinks on the Oregon chai brand. And luckily for you, this brand comes in liquid or chai tea packets. If you’re sensitive to dairy, stick with the liquid because the powdered form contains milk.

Oregon chai also makes several variations of the original, including vanilla, decaffeinated, and sugar-free.

Tazo is another brand that makes chai, as does Big Train.

Where can you buy white chocolate sauce?

Amazon offers several types of white chocolate sauce, including Ghirardelli and Torani. They also offer sugar-free options.

,

Wal-Mart does carry white chocolate sauce at a better price than Amazon. You may also find the syrup at your local grocery store.

Does Christmas Morning from Dutch Brothers have caffeine?

Black tea does contain some caffeine. The amount is about 1/3 of that of a cup of coffee. But if you’re concerned about caffeine, opt for the caffeine-free version of chai.

Does Dutch Bros Christmas Morning contain coffee?

No. You could certainly add a shot of espresso if you’re looking for a bit of a kick.

Final Thoughts

This Dutch Bros Christmas Morning drink is the perfect way to start your holiday off right!
