How much syrup or sauce is added to any size standard coffee-based drink?

In Dutch Bros, the standard practice for adding flavor to any size coffee-based drink is to use 1 flat scoop of syrup or sauce. This amount is designed to provide a balanced flavor profile that complements the coffee without overwhelming it. One flat scoop ensures that the drink maintains its coffee integrity while still providing enough sweetness and flavor for an enjoyable experience. This guideline helps both the baristas and customers maintain consistency across different drink sizes and orders.

Other options suggest larger quantities, which could lead to overly sweet drinks, detracting from the intended coffee flavor that the brand emphasizes. The practice of using one flat scoop allows for a smooth integration of flavors, making it the preferred choice within the standard preparation method at Dutch Bros.
