Starbucks Red Cup — Starbucks

Starbucks’ Red Cup day marks the start of the true holiday season — a fan favorite that fans wait for all year long. Starting tomorrow, November 13, 2025, you can get your hands on a red cup when you purchase any Grande (16-ounce) size handcrafted holiday or fall beverage. Beverage orders can be hot, iced, or blended to receive a full cup (at participating stores, while supplies last). A few holiday drink orders to grab a Starbucks Red Cup include fan-favorites like the Peppermint Mocha, Sugar Cookie Latte, and Pecan Oatmilk Cortado.

This year’s 2025 Red Cup is made with 95 percent recycled material and features a hand-drawn illustration by Starbucks designer Yvonne Chan. Chan says the design was inspired by the “little moment of magic you feel when you step into a Starbucks from the cold outside”. The 2025 Red Cup includes a hand-drawn sketch that is designed to capture the feeling of something crafted by one person for another. Once you get your hands on a Starbucks Red Cup this season, you can also bring your cup back for future orders and receive a small 10-cent discount on your order as a way to encourage coffee drinkers to help our environment by using reusable cups.

Starbucks Red Cups are available in participating stores as well as for some orders through DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub. In past years, cups sold out pretty quickly, so get to Starbucks early on Thursday if you want to grab the 2025 Starbucks Red Cup for yourself.

Puerto Rico Distillery

Don’t be confused by its name. Puerto Rico Distillery isn’t on the island of the same name. It’s actually a family-owned craft distillery located in Maryland. Founded by father-and-daughter team Angel and Crystal Rivera, it was created to pay tribute to the distilling history of Puerto Rico. Recently, the distillery moved into a historic building in Brunswick, Maryland, and is celebrating by launching a special rum release.

Bib & Tucker

Bib & Tucker has gained quite a following in the last decade because of its award-winning portfolio of whiskeys. Beginning this fall, Tennessee-based distillery will launch its first-ever bottled-in-bond whiskey. Not only does the new whiskey fit the criteria for a bottled-in-bond expression, but it’s matured twice as long as it needs to be.

Tequila Corralejo Introduces Smaller Bottle For the First Time in More Than 250 Years

Alcohol, Beer, Beverage

If you’ve walked into a Mexican bar or restaurant, chances are you’ve noticed the big blue bottle of tequila. Corralejo is famous for its tall, slim bottles that come in 750 milliliters and 1.75 liters. The 750-milliliter bottle is the standard size you’ve probably become familiar with. Corralejo also has clear bottles for its Blanco, red bottles for its Añejo, and a tall, round, bright blue bottle for its Triple Distilled Tequilas, among other shapes and types.

It’s been this way for decades and decades. But for the first time, Corralejo is meeting the demand for smaller, easily digestible, and giftable bottles. Arriving ahead of Hispanic Heritage Month and Mexican Independence Day in September, Corralejo is introducing the 375ml Reposado bottle, which aims to create “a timely entry point into Tequila Corralejo’s more than 250 years of tequila-making heritage, while offering a right-sized option for intimate gatherings, gifting, and cocktail occasions.”
