Starbucks Unveils Holiday Menu with New Drinks and Snacks

Starbucks announced that its beloved holiday menu, including a brand new holiday drink, will be coming to stores on November 7.

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

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

Of course, Starbucks' legacy holiday drinks will also be available starting Thursday. These include fan favorites like the Chestnut Praline Latte, Caramel Brulée Latte, Frosted Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte, and the beloved Peppermint Mocha. In addition to the return of the chocolate cold mousse, the chain is also introducing a gingerbread cold mousse, as well as a salted pecan cold mousse that can be added to any beverage.

There are also a number of new pastries that will be on the menu 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. Penguin Cookie is a confectionery cookie with a penguin face made of cream. The chain's Snowman Cake Pop is made with vanilla cake and buttercream frosting and then dipped in thick white chocolate frosting decorated to resemble a snowman. For those looking for something delicious, you can check out Turkey Sage Denmark. Minced meat pastry is filled with turkey sausage and béchamel sauce.
