Starbucks' Holiday Menu Is Back, Bringing Cheer and New Refreshers to the Season
The Anticipated Return of Festive Favorites and New Arrivals
As the holiday season approaches, Starbucks is spreading cheer with the return of its iconic holiday menu, featuring beloved drinks and treats, as well as some exciting new additions. Starting November 7, customers can once again indulge in the merriest of flavors at Starbucks stores nationwide, including Starbucks Reserve Roasteries and select locations.
Alongside the return of classic favorites like the Peppermint Mocha, Caramel Brulée Latte, and Chestnut Praline Latte, Starbucks is introducing a trio of new Cran-Merry Orange Refreshers, marking the first time refreshers have been included in the holiday menu. These fruity and revitalizing drinks are sure to be a hit with customers looking for a lighter holiday option.
New Additions to the Menu
This year, Starbucks has also announced the addition of seven new holiday drinks and foods to the menu. While some of these items have been leaked online, the company has officially confirmed their availability. Among the new items are the Iced Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai, Oleato Gingerbread Oatmilk Latte, and a range of festive treats.
Interestingly, not all locations will offer the same holiday menu items. Starbucks fans in the US, for example, will be missing out on two new sweet and salty drinks that have been added to the menu in Australia: the Salted Pretzel Cocoa Frappuccino and the Salted Pretzel Cocoa Latte.
The Healthier Options
While holiday drinks can be a fun part of the festive season, many of us are also mindful of the sugar and caffeine content. According to dietitian Chris Mohr, speaking to Yahoo Life, some holiday drinks at Starbucks are indeed healthier than others. If you're watching your diet, consider opting for lower-calorie options like the Iced Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai or a simple coffee drink.
Red Cup Day is Back
Starbucks' iconic Red Cup Day has also made its return, with customers who order a holiday drink on November 7 receiving a free reusable cup. This annual tradition has become a beloved part of the holiday season, and many fans are eagerly anticipating the release of the new cup design.
A New Era for Starbucks
The release of the 2024 holiday menu comes as Starbucks' new CEO announces a series of changes aimed at drawing back customers. With the company looking to revitalize and improve its offerings, fans of the brand will be eager to see what other innovations and surprises the coming year holds.
Whether you're a loyal Starbucks fan or just looking to get into the holiday spirit, the return of the iconic holiday menu is sure to bring a smile to your face. So why not grab a cup of cheer and indulge in the festive flavors of the season?
