A Grande has 90 calories, 0 grams of fat, 0 grams of saturated fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 15 milligrams of sodium, 21 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams of fiber, 19 grams of sugar, 0 grams of protein, and 45-55 milligrams of caffeine.

The Mango Dragonfruit Refreshers Beverage can be turned into the “Dragon Drink” by requesting coconutmilk be used instead of water. And, it can also be made with lemonade creating the boring-named Mango Dragonfruit Lemonade Refreshers Beverage.
