And you thought the holidays were over. It turns out that Starbucks has three more gifts to give its fans this season in the form of new drinks and baked goods. Starting January 3, you’ll be able to taste your way through the coffee chain’s new winter menu, which is loaded with comforting flavors that will hold you down through the cold mornings ahead—even if you order iced year-round.
3 New Menu Items Are Coming to Your Local Starbucks Today
1. Pistachio Cream Cold Brew
This combination of silky, smooth Starbucks cold brew, vanilla syrup and light-as-clouds pistachio cream cold foam couldn’t be more comforting. Don’t even get us started on the salted brown buttery sprinkles on top. (In case hot coffee is more your style, the fan-favorite Pistachio Latte—which boasts notes of sweet pistachio and rich brown butter—is returning for a third year as well.)
2. Red Velvet Loaf
Your favorite cupcake, Starbucks-ified. Think tender vanilla cake swirled with decadent red velvet cake, all topped with white chocolatey icing. Cake pop who?
3. Starbucks Tribute Blend Whole-Bean Coffee
Want some fresh grounds for the new coffee maker you got this holiday? Fill it up with Starbucks Tribute Blend, a mix of herbal Sumatra, chocolate-like Colombia, spicy Papua New Guinea and fruity Ethiopia beans. While you’re at it, sample the new Starbucks Reserve Guatemala Lake Atitlan and Starbucks Reserve Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Chelelektu coffees, which taste like malt, apricot and chocolate and honeyed raspberry respectively. (Available at select Starbucks stores.)
