Here's a list of the top Starbucks holiday drinks for 2024: From the new editions to the classic favorites, there's something here for everyone!
1. Caramel Brûlée Latte
The Caramel Brûlée Latte is back with its buttery caramel flavor, creamy milk, and a shot of rich espresso. Topped with caramel brûlée, it offers a sweet crunch with every sip.
2. Chestnut Praline Latte
Warmth and nuttiness define the Chestnut Praline Latte. Featuring roasted chestnut flavors, it's combined with steamed milk, and espresso, and finished with a sprinkling of praline crumbs. This drink wraps you in comfort with every sip.
3. Iced Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte
Starbucks keeps the holiday inclusivity strong with its non-dairy option: the Iced Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte. Sweet, nutty, and reminiscent of freshly baked sugar cookies, this drink is topped with colorful sprinkles for a nostalgic holiday touch.
4. Iced Shaken Hazelnut Oatmilk Espresso
Brand new for this year, this iced espresso blends blonde espresso and hazelnut syrup and is topped with oat milk for a splash of dairy-free goodness that isn't as sweet as the Iced Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte.
5. Iced Merry Mint White Mocha
A new contender in the 2024 holiday lineup, the Iced Merry Mint White Mocha is already creating a buzz. This festive drink combines Starbucks' signature espresso with smooth white chocolate sauce, poured over ice and topped with peppermint chocolate cream cold foam and a sprinkle of chocolate curls. While the mint adds a refreshing kick, the sweetness of the white chocolate balances it perfectly, making this a must-try — even for those who aren't typically mint fans.
6. Iced Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai
Now in a non-dairy version, the Iced Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai combines creamy oat milk with cinnamon-spiced black tea and the cozy warmth of gingerbread. The gingerbread flavor enhances the chai's natural spices, delivering a perfect balance of sweetness and spice for ultimate holiday comfort.
7. Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL)
Every fall, coffee lovers eagerly anticipate the arrival of the PSL, packed with warm notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. It's the ultimate autumn indulgence, and even if you're not a die-hard fan, it's hard to find fault with its cozy, spiced flavor. The Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, sweetened with vanilla syrup and topped with pumpkin cream cold foam, is a perfect alternative for those who prefer a cooler option.
No matter your flavor preference — rich, sweet, nutty, or spicy — Starbucks has a holiday drink to match the season's vibes. Each year, they keep some beloved classics while adding new options to surprise our taste buds.
