Though it feels like we’ve just entered the thick of autumn, Starbucks is always one step ahead with its announcements. Today, Starbucks has announced that holiday beverages will return on November 6, including a great mix of returning fan favorites with new twists. This year’s holiday. The beverage menu includes Peppermint Mocha, Caramel Brulée Latte, Iced Sugar Cookie Latte, and Iced Gingerbread Chai. Later in the season (date not announced yet), the Chestnut Praline Latte and fan-favorite Eggnog Latte will return.
Holiday food item treats in the bakery section will also return on November 6, made to pair perfectly with seasonal drink choices. The returning bakery items include the fan-favorite Snowman Cookie, Cranberry Bliss Bar, and Sugar Plum Cheese Danish. To mix things up, Starbucks has also announced the launch of a new Polar Bear Cake Pop and Cinnamon Pull-Apart Bread.
Red Cup Day and Starbucks at home
In addition to the announcement about holiday menu items, Starbucks has also said the ‘Red Cup Day’, a favorite holiday tradition, will return later this season. Red Cup Day provides Starbucks customers with a free, collectible, reusable holiday cup when they purchase any handcrafted holiday beverage. If you prefer to enjoy Starbucks’ favorite holiday drinks at home, you can get into the spirit even earlier than November 6. Starbucks’ Peppermint Mocha and Sugar Cookie Latte coffees, creamers, and ready-to-drink beverages are already in grocery stores nationwide.
