Feeling festive? Try the new Starbucks Holiday Menu
The return of the iconic Starbucks Red Cup can only mean one thing: the festive season is finally here!
There’s no better winter warmer than a steaming mug of your favourite seasonal beverage. This year, we’re celebrating the holidays by bringing back some festive favourites as well as adding some brand-new creations to our menu.
The seasonal showstopper: Nutty Chocolate Mousse Latte
…or Chocolatey Mousse Latte if you’re in the UK. With smooth espresso, a hint of nuttiness, and a fluffy, chocolatey mousse topping, it’s a delicious sip of seasonal magic that can be enjoyed hot or cold.
“We wanted to bring something new and distinctive to the Holiday menu, and the Chocolatey Mousse Latte does just that. The rich cocoa and nutty notes capture the warmth and comfort of the season, while complementing the festive flavours of our seasonal icons. What truly sets it apart is the cloud-like, chocolatey mousse topping, bringing a unique texture that creates a light and velvety texture in every sip.” – Dan Saxby, beverage product developer, Starbucks EMEA

‘Tis the season of the Red Cup
This year’s Red Cups are wrapped in bright red and green ribbons or geometric design, each cup captures the spirit of giving and connection, inviting customers to share in the warmth and cheer of the holidays with every handcrafted Starbucks beverage. A modern take on a beloved tradition, the designs serve as a vibrant reminder that even the smallest moments, like sharing a coffee, can bring people together.
