We have the latest scoop on the 2023 Starbucks holiday drinks menu!

Starbucks Holiday Cups

Holiday drinks, treats, and cups will be returning to Starbucks soon! 🎄

If you’ve been looking forward to the return Starbucks’ holiday lineup, we have good news for you! According to food blogger Markie Devo, Starbucks’ popular holiday menu is expected to return on November 2nd!

This will be the 26th year in a row that Starbucks will be delighting us with limited-edition drinks from its beloved holiday menu.

As the winter holidays approach, keep an eye out for the holiday cups in Starbucks cafés and other gifts, too. We’re also looking forward to Red Cup Day, when customers can get a free reusable holiday cup with their beverage purchase!

Check out a preview of the 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 will be 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, but now it’s available year-round!
Also missing from this list is the Toasted White Chocolate Mocha drink. Keep in mind that this is just an unofficial glimpse at the 2023 drink menu, so it’s too early to panic, but this news is definitely causing concern among fans of this holiday flavor. 😬

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!
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 flavor.

    Hello-the coffee, tea, or bakery items are 100 stars now. The hand crafted items are 200 stars. You may want to double check all your star values on the website. Excited to see gingerbread, though!
