Sip in Style: The Dutch Bros Color Changing Straw Drop

Dutch Bros fans are gearing up for the first major merch drop of 2026. On January 21, the coffee chain is giving away free color changing straws with the purchase of a medium or large beverage. These straws are a fan favorite because they react to the temperature of your iced Rebel or cold brew, making your morning caffeine run a bit more colorful.

If you want to guarantee you get one, you should plan to arrive early. Many shops see long lines starting at 5:00 a.m. local time. These drops are strictly "while supplies last," and once they are gone, they usually do not restock. You can use the Dutch Bros app to find your nearest location and check if they are participating in the event.

How to Get Your Free Dutch Bros Straw

• The Date: Wednesday, January 21, 2026.
• The Time: Starts at 5:00 a.m. (or as soon as your local shop opens).
• The Requirement: Buy any medium or large drink to receive one free straw.
• The Limit: There is a limit of five straws per person, so if you need more than five drinks, consider bringing a friend!
• Pro Tip: These items are highly collectible and typically sell out within the first few hours of the morning.
• Heads up: Order ahead is disabled from 4:00–6:30 AM — order in person at your local stand to snag a straw.
