Starbucks rings in 2023 with the debut of its new winter menu featuring the return of Red Velvet Loaf and fan-favorite Pistachio Latte alongside new Pistachio Cream Cold Brew.
Here’s a closer look at Starbucks’ winter menu:
Pistachio Cream Cold Brew features the brand’s signature Cold Brew sweetened with vanilla syrup, and is topped with silky pistachio cream cold foam and salted brown-buttery sprinkles.
Returning for a third year is the fan-favorite Pistachio Latte, featuring flavors of sweet pistachio and rich brown butter paired with espresso and steamed milk. The beverage is available hot, iced or as a Frappuccino blended beverage.
Returning to the bakery case is the Red Velvet Loaf, a vanilla cake swirled with classic red velvet cake and topped with white chocolatey icing.
Starbucks winter menu food and beverages are available at participating locations nationwide for a limited time, while supplies last.
Three special whole bean coffees will be available this season: Starbucks Tribute Blend at all Starbucks stores, and two Starbucks Reserve coffees – new Starbucks Reserve Guatemala Lake Atitlan and Starbucks Reserve Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Chelelektu – available at select Starbucks stores and Starbucks Reserve locations.
Starbucks is also introducing a new line of drinkware in pastels and fresh florals to brighten the new year. Ready to keep fans’ cold beverages chilly and hot beverages cozy, the winter collection includes stainless steel tumblers, ceramic mugs, beloved cold cups, and more in a variety of cup sizes. As always, Starbucks Rewards members who bring a clean, personal reusable cup into participating cafes will earn 25 Stars in addition to 10 cents off their beverage.
Starting February 13, Starbucks reward members will need 100 stars — Starbucks’ term for points — to get one cup of hot or iced coffee or tea, a baked good, a packaged snack or a to-go cup. Members will need 200 stars to get a latte or Frappuccino or a hot breakfast item, and 300 for a salad, lunch sandwich, protein box or packaged coffee (like a bag of beans).
