Holiday drinks, treats, and cups have returned to Starbucks! 🎄

If you’ve been looking forward to the return of the Starbucks holiday drinks, we have some good news for you! The NEW holiday menu is here and it’s packed with festive flavors to perk up your day!

This will be the 26th year in a row that Starbucks is delighting us with pretty holiday cups and limited-edition drinks. And four new holiday cold foams just joined the menu, too!

Here’s a look at the cold foam flavors joining the Starbucks holiday drinks menu for 2023:

  • Peppermint Chocolate Cream Cold Foam: Peppermint-flavored syrup and chocolate malt powder blended with Starbucks’ signature vanilla sweet cream
  • Sugar Cookie Cream Cold Foam: Sugar cookie-flavored syrup blended with Starbucks’ signature vanilla sweet cream
  • Chestnut Praline Cream Cold Foam: Festive flavors of caramelized chestnuts and spices blended with Starbucks’ signature vanilla sweet cream
  • Caramel Brulée Cream Cold Foam: Rich caramel brulée sauce blended with Starbucks’ signature vanilla sweet cream

Customers can now add holiday cold foam as a customization to any cold beverage for an additional charge at U.S. and Canadian Starbucks stores for a limited time throughout the holiday season while supplies last.

Here are the other 2023 Starbucks holiday drinks…

  • Caramel Brûlée Latte: Signature espresso, milk, and rich Caramel Brulee Sauce finished with whipped cream and Caramel Brulee topping
  • Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte: Sugar cookie syrup combined with Starbucks Blonde Espresso and almond milk, topped with red and green sprinkles.
  • Chestnut Praline Latte: Signature espresso, milk, Chestnut Praline syrup, topped with whipped cream, and Chestnut Praline Topping.
  • Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai: NEW for 2023, this drink is available in both hot & iced varieties.
Absent from this list is the Peppermint Mocha, but that’s not because it won’t be available this holiday season. It was previously the most popular drink on Starbucks’ holiday menu, so now it’s available year-round!
Also missing from this list is the Toasted White Chocolate Mocha drink. Fans of this drink are disappointed that they won’t be seeing it on the Starbucks holiday menu this year.

And let’s not forget the yummy seasonal Starbucks food!

  • Snowman Cookie: Buttery shortbread snowman cookie dressed up in white chocolaty icing.
  • Sugar Plum Cheese Danish:  Cream cheese filling surrounded by a fluffy Danish and topped with a spiced sugar plum spread.
  • Cranberry Bliss Bar: Blondie cake with dried cranberries topped with cream cheese icing flecked with orange zest and a sprinkle of dried cranberries.
  • Peppermint Brownie Cake Pop: NEW for 2023!
  • Gingerbread Loaf: NEW for 2023!
Missing from this list are the Chocolate Pistachio Swirls which debuted last year, and Reindeer Cake Pops, which appear to have been replaced with the new Peppermint Brownie Cake Pop flavor.
While in-store, keep an eye out for the holiday cups (including a brand new metallic red Stanley 40oz Quencher Tumbler 😍) and other gifts, too.
