As a seasoned coffee enthusiast with years of exploring Starbucks' seasonal offerings, I'm thrilled to share the 2018 holiday drink lineup. Beyond the festive cups, Starbucks brings back beloved classics like the Gingerbread Latte and Toffee Nut Latte, alongside fresh innovations such as the Christmas Brûlée Latte, Salted Caramel Brownie Hot Chocolate, and Cinnamon Spice Flat White.
All drinks are prepared with semi-skimmed milk by default, but you can opt for plant-based alternatives including soy, coconut, oat, or almond milk. Personalize your order endlessly—request less or no whipped cream, skip toppings, or add sugar-free syrups in vanilla, hazelnut, or caramel flavors to cut sugar and calories while keeping the taste exceptional.
Brand New for 2018
Christmas Brûlée Latte
This seasonal take on classic crème brûlée features steamed creamy eggnog blended with rich crème brûlée sauce and fresh espresso, topped with Christmas brûlée and crème brûlée twinkles. Subtle spices enhance the coffee's depth and the sauce's luxurious indulgence.
Salted Caramel Brownie Hot Chocolate
Steamed milk meets mocha sauce and salted caramel, crowned with salted caramel brownie whipped cream, brownie crumbs, and salted caramel brittle. It strikes the perfect sweet-salty harmony for holiday indulgence.
Flat White with Cinnamon Spice
Espresso infused with cardamom, vanilla, and cinnamon, paired with steamed cinnamon sugar milk (available as a latte too). This sophisticated twist delivers a festive morning boost.
Recurring Favorites
Gingerbread Latte
The ultimate festive sipper: sweet, spicy gingerbread notes blend with espresso and steamed milk, topped with gingerbread whipped cream, crisp wafer, and a nutmeg finish for that perfect holiday spice.
Toffee Nut Latte
A fan-favorite for caramel and nut lovers. Rich, buttery toffee joins roasted nuts, espresso, and velvety steamed milk, finished generously with whipped cream and classic toffee nut sprinkles.
