By state
The median at the restaurants read in each state. Pick a state at the top of the board and every price on this site prints that state's figure.
What Taco Bell says it is
On its product page Taco Bell describes it as “A smooth and creamy strawberry drink mixed with real freeze-dried strawberry pieces, lemonade, and a splash of vanilla creamer for a cool, craveable twist on your usual refresher.”
The two calorie figures
The ordering menu prints a calorie figure of zero for Strawberry Dream Refresca. That zero is not a figure: the size is chosen on the product page, so the category listing has nothing to count until it is. The nutrition record carries 220 calories.
This page treats the zero as what it is and prints the record instead; every ranking on the site does the same.
Where it was listed
Strawberry Dream Refresca was listed at one of the 452 restaurants read, in one state, Texas on 19 September 2026. That makes it a test item, on only a handful of the menus read. The one restaurant that listed it is in Houston, Texas. States with no listing on the read date are missing from the by-state table above; the table names the one that had one.
What the price buys
The one reading, $4.49, is a single restaurant’s price in Houston, Texas and is printed as that, not as a range: nothing on this site stands on one restaurant without saying so. Among the 35 priced drinks on the board, Strawberry Dream Refresca is the 34th cheapest by median price. The section median is $2.99, so it is $1.50 above it. At the median price it costs $2.04 per 100 calories.
The record against a day
Against a 2,000 calorie day, Strawberry Dream Refresca is 11 percent of the calories and 7 percent of the 2,300 mg sodium limit the FDA uses for the daily value. Saturated fat is 0.5 g, 2 percent of the 20 g daily value. Sugars are 54 g, of which 54 g are added.
The Drinks median for sodium is 70 mg; this one is 170.
Allergens and certification
The brand’s own tool lists Strawberry Dream Refresca as free of eggs, fish, gluten, MSG, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts and wheat. The label warns of milk. The tool’s own caution: “While a particular ingredient may not contain one of these allergens, our products may be prepared on the same equipment and in the same kitchen area as those that do.” Gluten is the special case: “Taco Bell does not claim “gluten-free” for any ingredients or menu items.” A free mark for gluten here is the tool’s word about ingredients, never a claim by this site.
Strawberry Dream Refresca stops it being vegetarian as served: Strawberry Dream Refresca carries no vegetarian tag in the statement.
Ways to change it
Two add-ons are offered; the heaviest are Dried Dragonfruit at no calories and Dried Mango at no calories. The removable components and what each carries: Dried Strawberries (no calories) and Vanilla Creamer (no calories).
The option calories are the ordering menu’s own figures for the option, printed as it prints them; a swapped build is not a nutrition record, so the panel on this page stays the item as published. Option prices were read at one of the restaurants and are printed with that count, never as a national figure.
