Red Cup Day is back: Starbucks celebrates a favorite holiday tradition

It’s Red Cup Day – and Starbucks coffeehouses are spreading the cheer! Customers who order a handcrafted holiday or fall drink at participating U.S. Starbucks coffeehouses today, Nov. 13, will receive a free 2025 limited-edition reusable red cup, made with 95 recycled material, while supplies last.  

Since 2018, Starbucks has given reusable holiday cups to customers on Red Cup Day to celebrate the return of the holiday season, and this year we plan to give away more cups than ever before. We have more baristas in our cafés to welcome customers and ensure a great experience for everyone.

A festive red Starbucks cup with white illustrations of a cozy house and holiday decorations sits on a wooden table.

The collectible cups are a gift that keeps on giving – customers can bring back their clean holiday cup — or any cup — for a 10-cent discount on their beverage all year long.
