Rolling out nationwide tomorrow, November 7th, Starbucks fans can expect new beverage options on the menu. The fan-favorite (for 22 years) and classic Peppermint Mocha are returning this year. Available hot, iced, or blended, this winter classic coffee features Starbucks Signature Espresso, combined with steamed milk, mocha sauce, and peppermint-flavored syrup. Topped with whipped cream and dark chocolate curls, this holiday staple is ideal for fueling those cold mornings or long holiday shopping runs. In addition to the traditional Peppermint Mocha, fans can also order the Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha for a slightly sweeter beverage.

Other returning favorites on Starbucks’ 2024 holiday menu include:

  • Caramel Brulee Latte: Caramel sauce mixed with espresso and hot milk (also available iced)
  • Sugar Cookie Almond Milk Latte: This latte combines sugar coffee syrup with a shot of espresso and almond milk and is topped with red and green sprinkles. It can be enjoyed iced or hot.
  • Iced Gingerbread Oat Milk Chai: A non-dairy drink made from warming spices, gingerbread syrup, and cold foam.
  • Chestnut Praline Latte: Features notes of chestnut combined with sweet praline

To keep things interesting, Starbucks’ 2024 holiday beverage menu also features two new beverages — one for coffee drinkers and one for non-coffee drinkers:

  • Salted Pecan Crunch Cold Brew: Classic cold brew coffee with a pecan flavor, topped with sweet cold foam and a sprinkle of chopped pecans.
  • Cran-Merry Orange Refresher: Featuring classic holiday flavors of orange and cranberry, this refresher can be mixed with lemonade, coconut milk, or water.

In addition to the standard 2024 holiday drink menu, Starbucks’ customizable menu also allows you to add holiday cold foams to any order. Holiday cold foam flavors include peppermint chocolate cream, sugar cookie cream, chestnut praline cream, gingerbread cream, caramel brulee cream, and salted pecan cream.

Sip on a Cortado from Starbucks’ new winter 2025 menu
The Cortado is the drink of 2025
Starbucks Cortado

Out with the old and in with the new, as Starbucks says goodbye to their holiday menu. Starting today, coffee drinkers can explore the chain's new Winter 2025 menu, featuring the hottest new drink of the year: the Cortado. Made with a 1:1 ratio of espresso and steamed milk, this small yet mighty new drink adds a new order to your espresso beverage rotation. Your Cortado order at Starbucks will consist of three ristretto shots of Blonde Espresso and steamed milk, which are served in a short, eight-ounce cup (available only in a hot cup). Smooth and velvety, this drink packs in a more concentrated flavor than other handcrafted espresso drinks -- thanks to the Ristretto espresso shots.

In addition to the classic Cortado order, the 2025 menu debuts a fun twist on this drink: the Brown Sugar Oatmilk Cortado. This Cortado is made with the same three Ristretto shots of Starbucks' Blonde Espresso, but also contains brown sugar syrup, cinnamon, and steamed oatmilk, instead of dairy milk. This option is a great order for those who want a dairy-free Cortado or one with an additional hint of sweetness. Many fans are especially excited about the release of the Cortado, as fans have patiently requested this drink in many markets for several months.
