Panera Bread Caramel Latte

Panera bread iced caramel latte review

The Panera Bread Caramel Latte looks nothing like the picture online. At Three Hundred and ninety food calories I would also have to point out that it's much more calories than a soda and a good deal less refreshing. 

I didn't think much of this offering from Panera Bread and health wise you should be more interested in the smoothies than this liquid candy.

  • Frozen caramel cold brew
  • Green passion smoothie
  • Panera passion papaya green tea

Panera soft drinks

I’ll start with the traditional soft drinks and sodas you can get pretty much everywhere.

I won’t rank these since they are pretty much the same everywhere you go.

Just keep in mind they don’t have a ton of sodas available, so if fizzy drinks are your favorite pick you’ll find the offer to be reduced.

  • Pepsi
  • Diet Pepsi
  • Mist Twist

Panera Frozen drinks

These two drinks were impossible to rank. They are both just as good and it honestly depends on what type of persona you are: a caramel one or a chocolate lover?

Frozen caramel cold brew

This Panera frozen drink is really good! It’s cold brew coffee blended with ice and caramel sryup and topped with whipped topping and a generous caramel drizzle.

It’s sweet, it’s caffeinated and it’s exactly what an afternoon pick me up should look like.

A serving has 490 calories

Frozen chocolate cold brew

This drink is not as sweet as the frozen caramel cold brew and it’s packed with chocolate flavor.

It’s made with cold brew coffee blended with ice and their famous bittersweet chocolate syrup. Then it’s topped with whipped topping and a chocolate syrup drizzle.

If you need a pick me up and some chocolate this is exactly what you need. Each serving has 450 calories.

Panera Bread smoothies

Strawberry banana smoothie

The strawberry banana smoothie is probably one of the most popular ones and with reason. So delicious!

It’s made with strawberry puree, bananas and Greek yogurt so it has a nice little bit of protein. It’s also blended with ice to make it incredibly refreshing.

Honestly it’s a super creamy smoothie with the right balance of flavors. It has 250 calories per serving.

Green passion smoothie

This drink has a tropical flair and it’s perfect for the hot Sumer months when you are craving something that’s delicious but feels light and healthy at the same time.

The Panera Bread green passion smoothie is made with passionfruit juice, fresh spinach, peach puree and mango puree. It’s all blende with ice.

This one doesn’t have greek yogurt so it’s a little bit less filling but that also makes it a great alternative for those that are looking for a dairy free and plant based alternative. It also has 250 calories per serving.

Mango smoothie

The mango smoothie tastes just like a mango smoothie should taste: like mango.

This smoothie is made with mango puree, orange juice, banana puree and Greek yogurt. Everything blended with a good dose of ice.

It’s tropical, it’s filling and it’s the perfect breakfast smoothie. It has 300 calories per serving so it’s the highest calorie smoothie from their drinks menu.

Peach and blueberry smoothie with almond milk

The peach blueberry smoothie with almond milk it’s good but it’s not as good as some of the other alternatives. It’s plant based and vegan tho so that’s something.

It’s made with peach and mango puree, fresh blueberries, almond milk, passion fruit juice and white grape juice (but I honestly can’t feel the grape juice).

Strawberry smoothie

Strawberry puree + strawberry juice + Greek yogurt + ice = Panera strawberry smoothie.

This is my least favorite drink from this list. Not because it’s bad, it’s not, it’s actually delicious but there are some amazing smoothies at Panera that feel more fun and elaborated.

This tastes kind of a like a smoothie you could whip up in a couple of minutes at home. It has 270 calories per serving.

Panera coffees, teas and hot chocolate

Panera offers some delicious and interesting coffee options! I’m not going to reviews them all since they deserve their very own post but you can find:

  • 100% Colombian dark roast coffee
  • Hazelnut coffee
  • Cafe blend light roast coffee
  • Decaf coffee
  • Hot tea
  • Iced 100& Colombian dark roast coffee

So if you are looking for iced alternatives, hot ones, chocolates or teas there’s something that will work for you snack, breakfast or pick me up.

Panera Iced Tea

Passion papaya green tea

The passion papaya green tea from Panera bread is iconic, it’s probably the most popular on this Panera Bread drinks list!

They also serve it bottled up in case you want to buy some to go ro for later.

It’s made with green iced tea and flavored with papaya and passion fruit.

it’s tropical and so refreshing and fruity. It has 140 calories per 20 fluid ounces.

Iced tea

There’s nothing like a fresh brewed sweet tea that0s served over a lot of ice.

Panera’s iced tea is perfect. It’s light, it’s refreshing, it’s perfectly sweet but not too sweet and it only 10 calories per 20 fluid ounces!

Agave lemonade

This lemonade tastes what a good homemade, freshly squeezed lemonade should taste. It’s good. So good!

It’s made with lemon juice, sugar, water and agave and served with a lot of ice.

It has 180 calories per 20 fluid ounces.

Plum ginger hibiscus tea

If you like intoxicating teas then you’ll like this one. Think those teas that are herbal and flowery and fragrant.

It’s made with hibiscus, apple slices, rosehip, blackberry leaves, ginger, carob and plum flavors.

It’s calorie free! So it’s 0 calories per 20 fluid ounces.

Prickly Pear hibiscus fresca

I honestly don’t know how to describe the flavor except that it’s good. I mean I have never tasted a fresh prickly pear in my life so not sure if this drink tastes like it.

It’s slightly zesty and perfectly sweet. It’s made with water, prickly pear puree, lime juice and hibiscus concentrate. it also has a beautiful pink color that’s perfect for Instagram photos.

It has 110 calories per 20 fluid ounces.
