Starbucks is bringing Christmas flavors back to its menu, giving customers new drinks and familiar favorites to try during the holiday season. The lineup arrived November 5, adding choices for coffee lovers and people who prefer something fruity.
“Starbucks’ holiday menu is one of my favorite parts about the Christmas season. I’m so excited to try everything,” said senior Mayte Tassitch
Among the newest additions are the Tiramisu Velvet Latte and Tiramisu Velvet Cold Brew. Inspired by the Italian dessert, both feature vanilla, mascarpone cold foam, and cocoa cookie dusting. The latte comes hot or iced, making it an option even during Miami’s warmer winter days.
“Out of everything that’s new, I’m very interested in trying the Tiramisu Latte,” shared senior Liam Terry.
Customers looking for a different flavor can try the Apple Pomegranate Refresher, which includes pomegranate flavored pearls. Its Snowy Apple version adds coconut milk for a creamier drink.
Returning favorites include the Peppermint Mocha, Caramel Brulée Latte, Sugar Cookie Latte, and Gingerbread Chai. These drinks bring back the chocolate, mint and spice flavors associated with the season. New variations include an Iced Sugar Cookie Cream Matcha and Iced Caramel Brulée Cream Chai.
The bakery case also has a holiday makeover. A new Bearista Cake Pop joins returning treats such as the Snowman Cookie, Cranberry Bliss Bar and Sugar Plum Cheese Danish. Together, the drinks and snacks offer customers several ways to put together a seasonal order.
The celebration will continue in December. Starbucks announced that its Snowcap Marshmallow collection will arrive December 1, featuring mocha, matcha and hot chocolate topped with marshmallow-flavored cold foam and crispy cookies. A Merry Berry Frappuccino will follow December 17, combining white chocolate mocha, strawberry, and raspberry flavors with a red bow cookie. about.starbucks.com
For students stopping before school or meeting friends afterward, the menu offers a seasonal break from the usual routine. With iced drinks and warmer options available, customers can choose something that fits their taste and the weather. Whether someone returns for a familiar Peppermint Mocha or tries a dessert inspired newcomer, Starbucks’ holiday lineup gives the season another flavor to look forward to.
