Starbucks Unveils Holiday Menu With New Drinks and Snacks

Starbucks announced that its beloved holiday menu will arrive in stores on Nov. 7, including a brand-new festive drink.

For the very first time, Starbucks is launching a holiday Refresher: the Cran-Merry Orange Refresher. The new beverage comes in three different flavors—the Cran-Merry original, Cran-Merry Orange Lemonade Refresher, and Cran-Merry Drink.

The Cran-Merry Orange Refresher is combined with water and features notes of orange and cranberry along with warm holiday spices. Dried cranberries add a festive garnish, while green coffee extract gives you just enough caffeine for that afternoon malaise. The Cran-Merry Orange Lemonade Refresher is the same as the Original, but instead of water, you get lemonade with your shaken ice. Interestingly, the Cran-Merry Drink uses coconut water rather than water or lemonade, though it also contains the same ingredients as the other two options.

Of course, Starbucks’ legacy holiday drinks will also be available beginning on Thursday. That includes fan favorites such as the Chestnut Praline Latte, Caramel Brulée Latte, Iced Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte, and the beloved Peppermint Mocha. In addition to the return of chocolate cold foam, the chain is debuting a gingerbread cold foam as well as a salted pecan cold foam which can be added to any drink.

There's also a batch of new baked goods making their way to menus for a limited time. One such treat, the Dark Toffee Bundt, is a personal-sized cake with “deep toffee flavors” and covered in festive sprinkles. The Penguin Cookie is a shortbread confection with a penguin face made out of frosting. The chain’s Snowman Cake Pop is made with vanilla cake and buttercream and then dipped in a thick white chocolate icing, decorated to resemble a snowman. For those looking for something savory, you can check out the Turkey Sage Danish. The flaky pastry is filled with turkey sausage and béchamel sauce.
