| - I sort of consider myself a coffee enthusiast. I love caffeine, partially because I have too. I work fulltime and go to school fulltime and maintain a semi normal life. And now I really have to up my caffeine dosage because I have finals. Actually, I have a final Saturday which I am cramming for. After a long day of work and hard work out session I decided I needed a caffeine boost so I could go home and study. I recalled reading about some ER 911 drink at Dutch Bros, and the article mentioned something about making even people with high caffeine tolerances feeling cracked out from the drink. So it sounded exactly like what I needed. Driving to Scottsdale and McDowell I was looking so forward to this drink- in hopes it would really help me study and get a lot done. I pull up to blasting music and friendly service. I get even more excited. I order the drink. He asks me if I want it hot, iced, or blended. Seeing as it was hot out( I think it got over 100 degrees today) the blended sounded delightful. But, my health nuttiness kicked in and I asked how much worse the drink was for me. And the fit healthy looking guy assured me it was about the same as getting it iced. I was a little surprised but believed him. He handed me the drink and asked how I liked it. I took a sip, and I am not going to lie, it was delicious at the beginning. I took my second sip.. And thought to myself, this was too good to be true. As I neared my home and being about a quarter of the way done with my drink (16 oz) I felt so ill. I never feel sick from food or drinks (even alcohol!). I stuff my face and get that sick overly full feeling. This was way worse. I could barely get to my bed. I was sweaty, felt like vomiting everywhere. I felt like I had food poisoning. Finally, after half an hour of lying in bed and feeling sick, I told myself I needed to find out what was in this drink that has made me feel so sick. So, I looked up the nutrition and found that this drink was one of the WORST drinks nutritionally on the menu which aggravates me beyond belief because I SPECIFIALLY asked. The drink really is a ER 911 because it made me feel so sick I wanted to go to the ER. But, I am convinced it was bad milk or something because I have never felt so sick from a drink before. Plus, I am beyond mad that I asked the nutritional value of something and the incompetent barista assured me it was the same- what an idiot! Especially when it wasn't hard for me to look online.. I am sure they have little brochures in the store!
I do not recommend this place at all! And, after looking at all the other drinks nutritional values, they are all pretty bad for you! Compared to Starbucks and Dunkin...
Id much rather hit up one of those chains then DB!
