Starbucks reveals 2020 holiday drink menu, free cup giveaway
This news is piping-hot
Fox Business Briefs: Starbucks will continue to cut employee hours after it decided to keep most of its dining rooms closed during the coronavirus pandemic; Hollywood task force submits report on how to safely resume production.
The holidays can’t come early enough this year, and Starbucks will start celebrating on Friday.
Though Christmas is two months away, the coffee chain revealed its seasonal menu will be available in U.S. cafes starting Nov. 6, a spokesperson told FOX Business. Customers can warm up with a Peppermint Mocha, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Caramel Brulee Latte, Chestnut Praline Latte or Eggnog Latte, and even score a free, collectible red holiday cup by ordering a holiday drink tomorrow (at participating locations, while supplies last.)

Continuing tradition, Starbucks will also begin serving hot drinks in red and green holiday-inspired cups. This year’s non-denominational designs were inspired by a “Carry the Merry” theme, inviting customers to enjoy “the little moments of brightness” this holiday season with a cup of coffee in hand.

“Our thought behind the cups this year was about people carrying them out in the world as messengers of joy,” said Starbucks creative director Jeff Wilkson in a statement shared with FOX Business. “In a way that message deepened as we got further and further into this year. We want to be that beacon for people, a brief moment that they can look forward to.”
