In many parts of the country, the weather is still balmy, the leaves are still green and the breeze is carrying only the merest hint of autumn. No matter. Starbucks has just announced its holiday seasonal menu for 2025. And it’s set to arrive sooner than you might think.
What’s on 2025 Starbucks Holiday Menu?
Peppermint Mocha, Caramel Brulée Latte, Iced Sugar Cookie Latte and Iced Gingerbread Chai will arrive on Starbucks’ seasonal beverage menu at locations nationwide starting on November 6. A few weeks later, Chestnut Praline Latte and Eggnog Latte will return to the menu boards as well.
The bakery case will also feature new items and returning holiday favorites. New this year will be a Polar Bear Cake Pop and Cinnamon Pull-Apart Bread. Those back for the season include Starbucks’ Snowman Cookie, Cranberry Bliss Bar and Sugar Plum Cheese Danish.

The Hello Kitty collab includes a $34.95 boxed plush toy of Hello Kitty wearing a green Starbucks-barista apron and an extensive line of drinkware, including a $32.95 lidded, 16-ounce ceramic Hello Kitty mug with a red silicone bow on top.
“Whether you’re looking for a gift for a friend or a little something for yourself, this collection makes everyday moments feel a little more joyful and every gift a little more personal.” Kap Pitarys, director of U.S. merchandise for Starbucks, says of the Hello Kitty collection.
