Starbucks Canada is celebrating the season with a return of festive beverages, new additions to their holiday menu, and a variety of seasonal pastries. Guests can enjoy an array of holiday-themed drinks like the iconic Peppermint Mocha, the rich Caramel Brûlé Latte, and the comforting Chestnut Praline Latte, all available hot, iced, or blended as Frappuccinos. For those looking for a festive twist, Starbucks has introduced several new beverages that highlight seasonal flavours.
New Holiday Beverages
One of the new additions is the Cran-Merry Orange Refresher, featuring sweet orange, tart cranberry, and warm spices like cardamom, cinnamon, and nutmeg, shaken with ice and real cranberries. There is also the Cran-Merry Orange Lemonade Refresher, combining the same flavours with lemonade for a refreshing twist, and the Cran-Merry Drink, which adds creamy coconut beverage to the mix.
Returning Favourites
Starbucks also brings back fan favourites, including the Peppermint Mocha, which has been a holiday tradition for over 20 years. This drink features Starbucks Signature Espresso combined with steamed milk, mocha sauce, and peppermint-flavored syrup, topped with whipped cream and dark chocolate curls. For those with a sweet tooth, the Caramel Brûlé Latte offers rich caramel flavors with a touch of whipped cream and caramel brûlé topping.
A Modern Twist on Holiday Classics
For a modern take on a holiday classic, the Iced Sugar Cookie Oat Latte combines sugar cookie-flavoured syrup with Starbucks Blonde Espresso, oat beverage, and ice, finished with festive red and green sprinkles. Another returning favourite is the Iced Gingerbread Oat Chai, blending warm chai spices with oat beverage and topped with gingerbread-flavoured cold foam.
Holiday Cold Foam Options
Starbucks has also introduced several new cold foam options for the season. The Gingerbread Cream Cold Foam adds a sweet and spicy touch to any cold brew or iced coffee, while the Salted Pecan Cream Cold Foam combines nutty pecan flavours with a touch of salt. The Peppermint Chocolate Cream Cold Foam brings together peppermint and chocolate malt powder for a seasonal twist, and the Sugar Cookie Cream Cold Foam adds sugar cookie flavours to their signature vanilla sweet cream.

To complement these festive drinks, Starbucks has released a selection of holiday pastries. The Turkey Sage Danish offers a savoury treat with turkey sausage and bechamel sauce, while the Penguin Cookie is a buttery shortbread adorned with a festive penguin design. The Snowman Cake Pop is made with vanilla cake and buttercream, dipped in white chocolaty icing, and topped with seasonal sprinkles.
Seasonal Coffee Blends
