Does Panera Bread Have Sugar-Free Drinks?

In this section, I will go through all the 13 sugar-free drinks available from Panera Bread.

1. Iced 100% Colombian Dark Roast Coffee – 0g of Sugar

Did you know that dark roast coffee has less caffeine than a light roast? I know mind-blowing. This Dark Roast coffee is usually my go-to at Panera. It is a decedent freshly brewed coffee with a strong coffee flavor. I like to drop in a splash of the hazelnut coffee mentioned below to give it a slight hazelnut flavor.

2. Hazelnut Coffee – 0g of Sugar

The hazelnut coffee is another freshly brewed coffee option at Panera. This time it is flavored with Hazelnut. If you love hazelnut, then this is a great flavor. As mentioned above I use this to add a splash of flavor to my dark roasted coffees in the morning.

3. 100% Colombian Dark Roast – 0g of Sugar

This is the same coffee that is used for Panera’s iced coffee. “Rich and bold full body with dark chocolate notes and a nutty, sweet finish”. All the coffee vibes, none of the sugar.

4. Cafe Blend Light Roast Coffee – 0g of Sugar

If you really want a strong caffeine hit from your Panera brewed coffee, then Panera Bread blend light roast may be the one for you. It is “soft and smooth with hints of citrus, roasted nut and chocolate“. Lightly roasted coffee contains more caffeine due to the shorter roasting process.

5. Decaf Coffee – 0g of Sugar

If you want a coffee without any caffeine, then the decaf brewed coffee from Panera is the one for you. I love grabbing a cup of this with my coffee subscription when I pop into Panera in the afternoons and don’t want caffeine.

6. Cold Brew – 0g of Sugar

Next on the list of zero-sugar drinks from Panera? Cold brew! What even is cold brew though and how is it different from iced coffee? Iced Coffee is essentially brewed hot and then cooled. Cold brew is instead brewed at room temperature for half a day – making it higher in caffeine than iced coffee.

That means, if you are visiting Panera for a cooling zero sugar drink that packs a punch in the caffeine department then their cold brew may be the one for you.

7. Americano – 0g of Sugar

An Americano is a great zero-sugar coffee to order at any coffee shop. Panera is no exception. An Americano is basically got water poured over espresso. A simple but classic.

8. Espresso – 0g of Sugar

The classic coffee beverage. It is simple and to the point. If you are looking for a quick caffeine grab then espresso is the way to go.

9. Hot Tea – 0g of Sugar

A hot cup of tea (with no milk) is always a zero-sugar warming and comforting drink option from Panera bread.

10. Black Iced Tea – 0g of Sugar

The black tea from Panera is unsweetened and sugar-free. This means hot or iced is a sugar-free option.

11. Water – 0g of Sugar

Water is the ultimate zero-sugar drink. Often overlooked but water is a great zero-sugar drink.

12. Diet Pepsi – 0g of Sugar

Diet Pepsi is the one diet soda option at Panera Bread. Good to know that if you are craving soda when at Panera but don’t want sugar. If so, Diet Pepsi is always an option.

13. Bubly Lime – 0g of Sugar

Bubly Lime is lime flavored sparkling water available at Panera Bread. Crisp and refreshing – great if you want sparkling water but with a touch of flavor.
