The countdown to the holiday launch at Starbucks is on. Starting Nov. 6, Starbucks customers can once again enjoy the holiday beverages that make the season so special. This year’s lineup includes Peppermint Mocha, Caramel Brulée Latte, Iced Sugar Cookie Latte and Iced Gingerbread Chai. And later in the season, Chestnut Praline Latte and fan-favorite Eggnog Latte will return. 

Three coffee beverages are displayed against a red background. On the left, a mug of hot chocolate topped with whipped cream and chocolate chips. In the center, a creamy drink with whipped cream and caramel bits. On the right, an iced coffee with whipped cream and colorful sprinkles.

Three iced coffee drinks are displayed against a vibrant red background. The left drink is a light brown iced coffee with ice cubes and festive sprinkles on top. The middle drink is a creamy, blended coffee topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon. The right drink is a darker iced coffee with a frothy top, garnished with a dusting of spice.

The bakery case will be dressed for the season with the exciting return of the fan-favorite  Snowman Cookie, as well as the Cranberry Bliss Bar and Sugar Plum Cheese Danish. New this season is the Polar Bear Cake Pop and Cinnamon Pull-Apart Bread. 

Starbucks whole bean holiday coffee lineup includes Starbucks Thanksgiving Blend, Christmas Blend (also available in decaf), Christmas Blonde Roast and Holiday Blend.
