Starbucks holiday drinks start Nov. 5; Red Cup Day announced
The chain is adding Tiramisu Velvet drinks, returning Peppermint Mocha and new holiday merchandise, including a Bearista collection and Owala bottle.
On Thursday, Nov. 5, 2026, Starbucks officially launched its 2026 holiday menu and merchandise collection, introducing new Tiramisu Velvet beverages and returning seasonal favorites like the Peppermint Mocha.
This year's holiday lineup pairs new Tiramisu Velvet drinks with returning staples like the Sugar Cookie Latte and Gingerbread Chai, drawing inspiration from Pike Place's original 1970s aesthetic.
Alongside the beverages, the coffee chain released a new merchandise line featuring a limited-edition 24-ounce Owala FreeSip bottle priced at $19.95 and various Bearista-themed items available today.
Some customers expressed disappointment on Starbucks' Instagram regarding the absent Chestnut Praline Latte, with one user writing, "Please don't tell me chestnut praline isn't coming back."
Future holiday events include the release of Mystery Glass Bearista Surprise Boxes on Nov. 10, followed by the annual Red Cup Day on Nov. 17.
