Panera Agave Lemonade: Price, Calories and Nutrition (2026)

Agave Lemonade is Panera’s current lemonade: a straightforward lemonade sweetened with agave nectar instead of refined sugar, served over ice in a regular 20-ounce cup. It arrived as the replacement for the Charged Lemonade line, which Panera discontinued in 2024, and it is deliberately the opposite of that drink: no caffeine, no energy-drink positioning, just a clean, sweet-tart lemonade. In 2026 a regular runs from $3.46 at most US cafes, with 210 calories per regular 20 fl oz according to Panera’s official nutrition values.

Panera prices vary by cafe and market, and delivery orders run higher with fees and tips. The from $3.46 figure comes from a 2026 drinks guide snapshot; an older cafe menu board shows $3.29 regular and $3.69 large, so treat the from $3.46 figure as a market-varied estimate. The large runs 320 calories. This is a caffeinated-lemonade-free zone now: the Charged Lemonade line was discontinued in 2024 and is intentionally not on the menu.

What is in the Agave Lemonade

Lemon juice, water, and agave nectar, served over ice. That is the drink: no caffeine, no artificial colors, no energy blend. The agave nectar gives it a slightly different sweetness than standard sugar-sweetened lemonade, a little smoother and less sharp, but the flavor is still recognizably lemonade: tart up front, sweet on the finish.

At 210 calories for a regular with 52 grams of carbs and 48 grams of sugar, this is a sugary drink, full stop. The agave sweetener does not make it a health drink; it makes it a lemonade with a different sweetener. Zero fat, zero protein, 15 milligrams of sodium. The honest read is the same as any lemonade: it is a treat beverage, and the 48 grams of sugar is the entire nutritional story.

The large at 320 calories is a lot of sugar in one cup. The regular is already a 20-ounce pour, which is generous; the large is for people who want lemonade to be the main event. Unsweetened iced tea remains the zero-calorie alternative on the same drink station.

Agave Lemonade nutrition facts

Full nutrition breakdown for one regular Agave Lemonade (20 fl oz), based on Panera’s official nutrition values. 2026 listings show 210 regular and 320 large.

Nutrient	Amount per regular (20 fl oz)
Calories	210
Total fat	0g
Cholesterol	0mg
Sodium	15mg
Total carbohydrates	52g
Dietary fiber	0g
Sugars	48g
Protein	0g

The 210 calorie figure is just over 10 percent of a 2000 calorie day, and the 48 grams of sugar is 12 teaspoons in a single regular. That is more than a day’s suggested added sugar for many people, in one drink. The 15 milligrams of sodium is negligible, and the zero fat and zero protein are expected for lemonade.

Context against the large: 320 calories, which scales the sugar proportionally. Compared with the old Charged Lemonade line, the Agave Lemonade has no caffeine and a simpler ingredient list, which was the point of the replacement. If you want the lemonade flavor with fewer calories, there is no diet version on the standard menu; unsweetened iced tea with lemon is the workaround.

Agave Lemonade ingredients and customization

The standard build is lemon juice, water, agave nectar, and ice.

Customization is limited but useful. Extra ice is free and effectively reduces the sugar per sip. Some cafes will do a half-lemonade, half-iced-tea Arnold Palmer style on request, which cuts the sugar substantially. The drink station’s unsweetened iced tea is the zero-calorie alternative sitting right next to it. There is no light or diet version of the Agave Lemonade itself on the standard menu.

Allergens

The Agave Lemonade contains no major allergens: lemon juice, water, agave nectar, and ice. It is free of milk, egg, wheat, soy, and the rest of the standard list. The usual cross-contact caveats that apply to food do not meaningfully apply to a dispensed beverage. Anyone with a specific citrus or agave sensitivity should check ingredients at the cafe, but for the standard allergen list this drink is clear.

Agave Lemonade vs Cinnamon Crunch Bagel

A drink-versus-bakery comparison, because these are the two items people pair without thinking. Agave Lemonade (regular): 210 calories, 0g fat, 52g carbs, 48g sugar, 0g protein, 15mg sodium, from $3.46. Cinnamon Crunch Bagel: 430 calories, 7g fat, 82g carbs, 32g sugar, 9g protein, from $2.10.

The lemonade has less than half the calories but 16 more grams of sugar: liquid sugar hits differently from baked sugar, and the drink is the purer sugar delivery of the two. The bagel brings protein, fat, and actual satiety; the lemonade brings none. Together they are 640 calories and 80 grams of sugar, which is a lot of breakfast.

Pick the Agave Lemonade when you want a clean, caffeine-free drink and you are eating something with protein alongside it. Pick the bagel when you want the food to do the work. If you are watching sugar, the honest answer is neither, but the lemonade is the one people underestimate because it feels light.

Getting the best value on the Agave Lemonade

• The regular at 20 ounces is already generous. The large costs more for 110 extra calories of sugar water, so the regular is the value size.
• MyPanera rewards run drink deals, including free drink offers and sip club style promotions. A free Agave Lemonade with a lunch order is a common offer.
• The half-lemonade, half-unsweetened-tea mix is free where offered and cuts the sugar nearly in half while keeping the lemonade flavor.
• Skip delivery for a drink. Fees and tips on a $3.46 lemonade are proportionally absurd, and lemonade does not travel well in a bag.
