How we got these numbers: 7 Brew does not publish a caffeine chart for its stand drinks. Espresso figures use about 63 mg per shot (the USDA benchmark for a 1 oz espresso) multiplied by the shot counts customers and baristas report for each size. The 7 Brew Energy can figure comes from 7 Brew’s own website. Anything marked “Estimate” can vary by stand, and extra shots change it. Full methodology.
How Much Caffeine Is in a 7 Brew Espresso Shot?
A single 7 Brew espresso shot has about 63 mg of caffeine. That is the standard figure for a 1 oz shot of espresso, and it is the building block for every coffee drink on the menu. To work out any order, multiply the number of shots by 63.
How many shots are in each 7 Brew size?
| Size | Iced cup | Hot cup | Espresso shots | Caffeine |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kids | ~12 oz | ~12 oz | 0 (no espresso) | 0 mg |
| Small | 16 oz | 12 oz | 2 | ~126 mg |
| Medium | 24 oz | 16 oz | 2 | ~126 mg |
| Large | 32 oz | 20 oz | 4 | ~252 mg |
Shot counts are reported by customers and baristas, not published by 7 Brew. Some stands may pull an extra shot, so ask at the window if you need to be exact. More on cup sizes in our 7 Brew sizes guide.
How Much Caffeine Is in a Small, Medium and Large 7 Brew Coffee?
Small 7 Brew coffee
2 shots in a 16 oz iced or 12 oz hot cup. About the same as a strong 12 oz cup of brewed coffee.
Medium 7 Brew coffee
Still 2 shots. The bigger cup adds milk, cream, syrup and ice, not espresso. That makes a Medium taste milder than a Small.
Large 7 Brew coffee
4 shots, which doubles the caffeine. Two Larges in one day puts you past 400 mg.
Is hot or iced stronger? The shot count is the same, so total caffeine is about equal. An iced drink simply has more ice and milk around the same espresso. A medium breve (espresso + half-and-half) has the same ~126 mg as any other 2-shot medium. Breve changes the calories, not the caffeine.
How Much Caffeine Is in 7 Brew Canned Coffee?
7 Brew’s canned coffee has about 63 mg of caffeine per 11 fl oz can. Walmart’s product listing says each can has “about as much caffeine as 1 shot of espresso”. 7 Brew hasn’t printed an exact milligram number in its announcements, so we use the one-shot benchmark. That puts one can at roughly half the caffeine of a Small stand coffee.
| Can | Flavor | Size | Caffeine | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blondie® Chilled Espresso Breve | Caramel + vanilla · 7 g protein | 11 fl oz | ~63 mg | $2.98 |
| Brunette Brownie™ Chilled Espresso Mocha | Chocolate · 8 g protein | 11 fl oz | ~63 mg | $2.98 |
| Banana Bread™ Chilled Espresso Breve | Banana + hazelnut | 11 fl oz | ~63 mg | $2.98 |
Caffeine: estimate based on the one-shot equivalence on Walmart’s listing. Flavors, protein and launch details: 7 Brew and Business Wire, August 2026. Price: 7 Brew’s at-home page.
Is the can as strong as a stand drink?
No. One can is about 1 shot of espresso. A Small or Medium Blondie from the stand has about 2 shots (~126 mg) and a Large has about 4 (~252 mg). You’d need two cans to match a Small from the window.
Where can you buy them?
The canned coffees launched in late August 2026 at about 4,400 Walmart stores, in the ready-to-drink coffee aisle and the grab-and-go coolers. They’re a Walmart exclusive and aren’t sold at 7 Brew stands. See our 7 Brew coffee menu guide for the stand drinks they’re based on, like the Blondie and Brunette.
How Much Caffeine Is in a 7 Brew Energy Drink or Can?
The 7 Brew Energy can has 114 mg of caffeine in 12 fl oz. That’s the one caffeine number 7 Brew publishes on its own site. Handcrafted 7 Energy drinks at the stand are estimated at about 76 mg (Small), 114 mg (Medium) and 152 mg (Large). So a Medium from the window is roughly one can.
| 7 Brew Energy | Size | Caffeine | Data |
|---|---|---|---|
| Energy can: Original, Sugar-Free Original, Ocean Breeze™, Nightshade™, Pink Mermaid™ | 12 fl oz | 114 mg | Official |
| Small 7 Energy (stand) | 16 oz | ~76 mg | Estimate |
| Medium 7 Energy (stand) | 24 oz | ~114 mg | Estimate |
| Large 7 Energy (stand) | 32 oz | ~152 mg | Estimate |
| Large 7 Energy + 1 espresso shot | 32 oz | ~215 mg | Estimate |
The flavor doesn’t change the caffeine. Ocean Breeze, Nightshade and Pink Mermaid all use the same energy base, so size is what matters. Energy cans cost $2.48, and the Sugar-Free Original has 5 calories. Original and Sugar-Free Original cans are sold at 7 Brew stands. The other flavors are Walmart exclusives. For flavor-by-flavor detail, see the 7 Brew Energy caffeine by size guide and the full 7 Brew Energy drinks guide.
7 Brew Energy vs coffee: which hits harder?
Coffee does. A Large 7 Brew coffee (~252 mg) has roughly 100 mg more caffeine than a Large 7 Energy (~152 mg). Energy drinks can feel sharper because they’re sweet, cold and quick to drink, but milligram for milligram, the 4-shot Large coffee is stronger. If you want both, a “dirty” energy with one espresso shot lands around 215 mg in a Large.

Caffeine-Free and Decaf Drinks at 7 Brew
0 mg: caffeine-free
- 7 Fizz (flavored sparkling drinks)
- Lemonades, like the Strawberry Lemonade
- Smoothies and shakes
- Kids-size drinks made without espresso or energy
Anything with chocolate, like hot cocoa or mocha sauce, carries a trace of natural caffeine (a few mg).
Decaf and half-caff
Most 7 Brew coffee drinks can be made with decaf espresso (about 4–8 mg in a Small). Decaf is 97%+ caffeine-free, not zero.
How to order half-caff: "Can I get a medium Blondie with one regular shot and one decaf shot?" That lands around 66 mg. More ordering tips are in how to order at 7 Brew.
Is That a Lot of Caffeine? 7 Brew Drinks vs Daily Limits
The U.S. FDA says up to 400 mg a day is generally safe for healthy adults. Here's how common 7 Brew orders use up that budget:
| Order | Caffeine | % of 400 mg (adults) | % of 200 mg (pregnancy) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Canned coffee | ~63 mg | 16% | 32% |
| Small or Medium espresso drink | ~126 mg | 32% | 63% |
| Energy can / Medium 7 Energy | ~114 mg | 29% | 57% |
| Large espresso drink | ~252 mg | 63% | 126% ⚠️ |
| Large cold brew | ~295 mg | 74% | 148% ⚠️ |
| Two Large espresso drinks | ~504 mg | 126% ⚠️ | 252% ⚠️ |
🤰 Pregnancy
ACOG recommends staying under 200 mg a day while pregnant. One Small or Medium espresso drink (~126 mg) fits. A Large (~252 mg) does not. Half-caff and decaf make it easier to keep your usual order.
🧒 Kids & teens
Pediatric groups advise against energy drinks for children and teens. For teens 12–18, a commonly cited ceiling is about 100 mg a day, which is less than one Small espresso drink. Kids-size drinks, lemonades, 7 Fizz and smoothies are the caffeine-free picks.
😴 How long it lasts
Caffeine's half-life is about 5 hours for most adults. Half of a Large (~126 mg) can still be active at bedtime if you order it at 4 p.m. For afternoon runs, pick a Small or half-caff.
General guidance only, not medical advice. If you're pregnant, nursing, on medication or sensitive to caffeine, check with your doctor. For sugar and calories, see our 7 Brew calories guide and are 7 Brew drinks healthy?
Best 7 Brew Drinks for Studying, Workouts, Night Shifts and Road Trips
📚 Studying
A Medium espresso drink (~126 mg) gives steady focus without overdoing it. Sip it slowly instead of chasing it with a second drink.
🏋️ Workouts
A Small or Medium 7 Energy (~76–114 mg), about 30–45 minutes before training. Pick sugar-free energy flavors to skip the sugar crash.
🌃 Night shifts
Split it: a Small espresso drink at the start of the shift and a Small 7 Energy midway (~200 mg total), then stop caffeine 6+ hours before you plan to sleep.
🚗 Road trips
A Large cold brew or Large espresso drink (~250–300 mg) for long drives. Keep a canned coffee (~63 mg) in the cooler for a smaller top-up later.
7 Brew Caffeine vs Starbucks, Dutch Bros, Red Bull and Monster
| Drink | Size | Caffeine |
|---|---|---|

| 7 Brew Large espresso drink | 32 oz iced | ~252 mg |
| Starbucks Grande Caffè Latte | 16 oz | 150 mg |
| Starbucks Venti Iced Latte | 24 oz | 225 mg |
| Dutch Bros Medium breve/latte | 16 oz | ~94 mg |

| Monster Energy | 16 oz | 160 mg |
| Celsius | 12 oz | 200 mg |
| Brewed coffee | 8 oz | ~95 mg |
Is 7 Brew stronger than Starbucks? At the top size, yes. A Large 7 Brew espresso drink (4 shots, ~252 mg) beats a Venti Iced Latte (3 shots, 225 mg). A 7 Brew Medium (2 shots) has less caffeine than a Starbucks Grande, because Starbucks' shots are rated higher (75 mg each). Versus Dutch Bros, 7 Brew's 2-shot drinks come out higher at similar sizes, based on Dutch Bros figures reported by Caffeine Informer.
Other chains' figures are from their published nutrition information or widely reported third-party data and can change. 7 Brew figures are estimates except the Energy can.
How to Get More (or Less) Caffeine at 7 Brew
- Add a shot: each extra espresso shot adds about 63 mg. The easiest way to boost a Medium without jumping to a Large.
- Size up: going from Medium to Large doubles the espresso (2 → 4 shots).
- Go "dirty": an espresso shot in a 7 Energy adds ~63 mg to the energy base.
- Cut back: order half-caff (1 regular + 1 decaf), full decaf, a smaller energy, or a caffeine-free 7 Fizz.
- What doesn't change caffeine: syrups (regular or sugar-free), cream, milk choice and ice change taste and calories, not caffeine. See 7 Brew sugar-free drinks if sugar is your concern.

Methodology, Sources & Updates
How we calculate
- Official numbers come straight from 7 Brew or its retail partners.
- Estimate espresso drinks = shots × ~63 mg (USDA value for a 1 oz espresso). Shot counts are reported by customers and baristas.
- 7 Energy stand sizes are scaled from the drink's energy base, cross-checked against independent reports, with Medium ≈ one 114 mg can.
- Canned coffee = the one-shot equivalence stated on Walmart's product listing.
- Tea, chai, matcha and cold brew use typical industry ranges for those bases at each cup size.
