Starbucks Holiday Drinks Are Back — This Time In 25th-Anniversary Red Cups

Starbucks holiday drinks starbucks red cupStarbucks holiday drinks starbucks red cup

It's that time of year where we make Christmas cookies, buy thoughtful gifts for our friends and family, and stop to grab one the iconic Starbucks holiday drinks. There's something magical about finally being able to get your go-to coffee in a red cup (or swapping your usual latte for a seasonal one) that makes it feel like the holiday season has finally arrived. Well, that and listening to the ultimate holiday playlist. And since there's probably a Starbs wherever you might be headed this holiday season, you can grab a drink no matter where your Christmas travels take you.

Starbucks Red Cups

The red cup was first introduced in 1997, meaning that this is its 25th birthday! The cup started out with holly leaves and coffee beans printed on it and has evolved to include characters, different holiday colors, and fun designs that definitely put us in the holiday spirit. We love the way that this year's collection looks like wrapping paper.

Starbucks Holiday Drinks For 2022

Starbucks Peppermint Mocha

How much more seasonal can you get? This classic drink has been on Starbucks' holiday menu for 20 years this year, and for good reason. It gives us that same warm-down-to-our-toes feeling that we get when we stir our cocoa with a candy cane. This is the first holiday drink we're going to be ordering!

Chestnut Praline Latte

This drink is great for any coffee drinkers who love nutty flavors. If your go-to nonseasonal order is a Hazelnut Latte, then you definitely need to give this drink a try. As far as the snacks go, we'd recommend pairing with a chocolate croissant for maximum flavor enjoyment.

Iced Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte

This latte is for those of us with a super-sweet tooth. Not only does it feature sugar cookie syrup, but it's made with blonde espresso, which is naturally sweeter than the regular espresso used in other drinks. Plus it has red and green sprinkles on top, which get another checkmark from us.

Irish Cream Cold Brew

Okay, so your first thought might be, "Why would I drink cold brew in the winter?" Because it's delicious! If your favorite drink is the normal cold brew, then this updated version (which features Irish Cream syrup and cocoa powder) will be your holiday go-to.

Caramel Brulée Latte

We'd recommend this drink even if you don't usually enjoy caramel flavors. It's warm, cozy, and has an excellent toasty flavor that tastes the way a warm hug feels. If you're still not so sure, try ordering it half-sweet before committing to the full flavor.

Toasted White Chocolate Mocha

Caramelized white chocolate mocha sauce, espresso, and steamed milk come together to create this sweet sip. The holiday sugar sprinkles and crispy pearls are the cherry on top.

Starbucks Holiday Snacks For 2022

Chocolate Pistachio Swirl

This holiday take on the cinnamon bun swaps your go-to cinnamon sugar for chocolate, and adds some mint chocolate chips and chopped pistachios on top. This is a breakfast treat we'll want to eat every day.

Reindeer Cake Pop

Get in the holiday spirit with a cake pop that's decorated to look like Rudolph. Vanilla cake with chocolate icing is our favorite cake combo, so we already know that we'll love this snack.

Sugar Plum Cheese Danish

We love all things related to the Sugar Plum Fairy (we're talking both food and glittery makeup), and that includes this Danish. It's got cream cheese and a spiced sugar plum spread that is the perfect complement.

Cranberry Bliss Bar

This bar features cranberries, which are a great in-season ingredient for your holiday recipes, but it also features cream-cheese icing and orange zest to create a holiday bar that is great for breakfast, snack, or dessert.

Snowman Cookie

This is a fan-favorite snack, and not just because it's adorable. The buttery shortbread is covered in white chocolate that is very reminiscent of a snowy day.

We never would have guessed that our favorite coffee chain would collaborate with Peanuts – yes, that Peanuts – but here we are. In the wild year that is 2025, Starbucks just dropped several adorable Snoopy cup designs, and we need them all.

Scroll on to discover the cutest Starbucks Snoopy cups and learn more about the new collab!

Starbucks

Starbucks and Peanuts dropped 3 Snoopy cups in honor of their new global brand partnership that celebrates “kindness, coffee, and community.” The brand partnership even includes Snoopy- and Peanuts-themed menu items that we're so bummed to not have in the U.S.

Starbucks

The exclusive designs will hit shelves at participating Starbucks stores starting March 25, and per Starbucks, the Snoopy cups will only be available for a limited time. That means run, don’t walk to your nearest Starbucks!

Starbucks

The designs range from $18-$30, so be prepared to spend a little extra. The best part about these new Snoopy cups, though, is the fact that you can bring them back to Starbucks for a $0.10 discount on your beverage order, and U.S. Starbucks Rewards members can receive 25 bonus Stars!

This post has been updated.

Lately, I’ve been paying closer attention to my grocery receipts. It’s not just the price of eggs — everything feels more expensive, and it's made me think more intentionally about how to make my food last longer. I’ve always hated wasting food. Not only is it tough on the planet, it’s tough on my budget, too. Americans toss out about 38 percent of our food — that’s the equivalent of 145 billion meals ending up in landfills (yikes!). Sure, a big chunk of that comes from restaurants, but even at home, being mindful of waste feels like a win for both the environment and my wallet.

So, instead of putting my groceries away haphazardly, I want to make sure I'm storing everything exactly how — and where — it should go. Luckily, I've learned there are some foods that actually last longer outside of the fridge. And they might surprise you!

Scroll to see the foods you don't need to refrigerate after all...

Alena Darmel

1. Cucumbers

I have never left cucumbers outside the fridge, but it turns out that this can cause them to become too watery. Instead, find an airtight containerand store them in your pantry or countertop. Then toss them in this colorful Greek Salad!

Rens D

2. Bell Peppers

Stashing bell peppers in the fridge can actually make them lose their crunch (who knew?). For peak crispness, keep them at room temperature and enjoy within one to two days. If you're not planning to eat them that quickly, pop them in the fridge to help prevent them from going soft too soon.

Elle Hughes

3. Basil

Store your basil as you would a fresh bouquet of flowers, in a jar with water. Cold temps can cause basil leaves to turn black, so it’s better off out of the fridge.

4. Butter (And Peanut Butter!)

According to the USDA, butter is best used within a day or two at room temperature to preserve its flavor. When I lived in San Francisco, I could leave it out on the counter year-round without worrying about it melting. Now that I’m in a hotter climate, I keep it out most of the year — just not during the peak of summer. Peanut butter also does well at room temperature, staying smooth and spreadable for up to three months (after which you'll need to refrigerate it).

5. Tomatoes

I grew tomatoes in my garden for the first time last year, and nothing beats the taste of one plucked straight from the vine. To keep that juicy , sun-ripened flavor going, store your tomatoes at room temperature on the counter — not in the fridge. Cold temps can dull their flavor and texture. Try making a simple Tomato Confit recipe to drizzle over bread or pasta, yum!

Gil Ndjouwou

6. Avocados

A friend and I were debating whether avocados belong in the fridge — turns out, they don’t. At least, not until they’re ripe. I eat one almost every day, so I go through them fast, but once they ripen, I pop them in the fridge to slow down the over-ripening. If you’re craving Avocado Toast, stash them in a paper bag to speed things up, or just let them ripen naturally in an open container on the counter.

Natalia Olivera

7. Fresh Bread

If you want to get the most flavor (and life) out of your fresh bread, skip the fridge. Refrigeration actually speeds up staling. Instead, store it in a bread box or basket — somewhere that blocks light but still lets it breathe. Planning to eat it the same day? Leaving it uncovered at room temperature works just fine. Otherwise, a paper bag or the freezer are your best options.

Eric Prouzet

8. Potatoes (Sweet or Otherwise)

I like to keep my potatoes and onions tucked away in the pantry where it’s cool and dark. Storing them in a paper bag at room temperature helps preserve their texture and flavor. The fridge might seem like a good idea, but it can actually do more harm than good — the moisture makes potatoes overly sweet and kind of gritty, and the humidity can cause them to mold more quickly.

Kaboompics.com

9. Onions & Garlic

Onions, shallots, and garlic can become moldy when exposed to the high humidity of the refrigerator. Store them in a relatively cool, dry place in your pantry or a cabinet that’s not exposed to light. Your onions will remain fresh and ready to use whenever you need them for recipes like this Spring Veggie Galette that I make every year!

Get ready for this week's weeklyhoroscope, because Aries season just got a whole lot more interesting. Not only is the Sun still blazing in this fiery sign, but we're welcoming Neptune into the Aries party – and trust me, this is a game-changer. Think less daydreaming, more doing. This week's astro-weather is all about turning those big, beautiful visions into tangible realities, not just for us, but for the whole planet. Get ready to channel your inner warrior for good, because the universe is giving us the green light to make some serious magic happen. Let's dive into your weekly horoscope!

Scroll to see your zodiac sign's weekly horoscope for March 30-April 5, 2025.

Taryn Archambault

This weekly horoscope is all about Aries— not only because the Sun is in Aries, but because Neptune has just entered the sign. Neptune, the ruler of Pisces, embodies peace and ethereal wisdom, while Aries is bold, courageous, and a warrior. This shift presents a powerful opportunity: instead of just dreaming of a more just and equal world, we can take real steps toward making it a reality—not only for humanity but for all species and ecosystems. It’s a big task, but history offers inspiration. The last time Neptune entered Aries, in 1864, the International Red Cross was founded to provide aid to war-wounded soldiers, regardless of which side they fought for. That altruistic mission has endured for 161 years.

Neptune spends roughly 14 years in each sign, shaping the collective outlook of an entire generation. Moving from Pisces, the zodiac’s final and most intuitive sign, into Aries, the first and most action-oriented sign, marks the start of a new cycle. While Neptune may take time to adjust to Aries’ fiery energy, we have an opportunity to manifest the highest potential of this pairing—using Aries’ drive to actively pursue Neptune’s vision of peace.

This week also brings other planetary movements that support positive action. On April 4, Saturn sextiles Uranus, blending Saturn’s discipline with Uranus’ inventive, out-of-the-box thinking. This energy encourages us to take calculated risks and work hard toward meaningful goals, transforming chaos into order.

Mallory Vandervelde

Adding to the momentum, Mars sextiles Uranus on the same day. This alignment delivers an extra push to innovate, experiment, and pursue what makes us feel free and authentic. Trust your instincts—if there’s a move you’ve been considering to bring more fulfillment into your life, this is a great time to make it happen.

On April 6, Venus trines Mars, blending love and beauty with action and drive. These two planets will continue this harmonious dance for months, sparking creativity and passion. It’s a great time to expand social activities and embrace the fresh, inviting energy of spring. Assertiveness and affection will be well-balanced, making it easier to connect with new people and strengthen existing relationships. Advocate for yourself and take charge of your life.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

Ensure your projects are grounded in reality. If something seems too good to be true, it likely is. Conserve your energy for attainable goals and refine your ideas before taking action. This dreamy phase is excellent for creativity, so carve out a space where you can freely create. Prioritize your artistic or personal passions and allow fluidity in the process.

Brit + Co

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

You stand at the edge of profound personal growth. Take time for quiet reflection, deepen your spiritual practice, and open your heart to intuitive insights. Use any tools that help you expand your understanding of the universe and your place in it. Patience is key; setbacks should be viewed as opportunities for cleansing and realignment. Release anything that no longer serves your highest evolution.

Brit + Co

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

It may feel like you’re the only competent one, and doing everything yourself seems easier than waiting for others to catch up. However, be cautious—this can lead to resentment. Instead, evaluate your role within your group or community. You are a natural leader, so set boundaries and teach others rather than shouldering all the work. Empowering others lightens your load and strengthens your influence.

Brit + Co

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

This may be a confusing period. Ask yourself: does your outward persona truly reflect who you are? Reflect on the different aspects of your personality and whether you’ve been limiting yourself. Explore new interests beyond your daily routine. You might find that career ambitions shift once you connect with other facets of yourself. Avoid impulsive decisions; instead, organize your life to accommodate both stability and growth.

Brit + Co

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

Trust the universe and your intuition. Let go of ego-driven desires, power struggles, and the need to control. Mystical insights will emerge when you surrender to the flow. Explore art, culture, or travel to broaden your horizons. Seek out experiences that challenge and expand your understanding of the world. Engaging with diverse perspectives will lead to exciting and meaningful interactions.

Brit + Co

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

You are entering a deeply introspective and spiritual phase. Peel back the layers of ego, dive into your subconscious, and strengthen your connection to the cosmos. This period offers a chance for self-transformation, leading to a more peaceful, authentic version of yourself. Establish rituals that nurture your higher self. However, don’t neglect daily responsibilities—especially financial matters, which require extra attention now.

Brit + Co

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Clear, direct communication is crucial, particularly in your relationships. Honesty and transparency will serve you best. If conflicts arise, practice Nonviolent Communication (as taught by Marshall Rosenberg). Keep your eyes open and scrutinize agreements carefully—have contracts reviewed by a professional before signing. Take a cautious, discerning approach in your interactions until intentions become clear.

Brit + Co

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Listen to your body’s signals. Seasonal transitions can make you more susceptible to illness, so prioritize self-care. Strengthen your immune system with healthy habits. You may also be more sensitive to substances like alcohol or processed foods—moderation is key. Your heightened intuition will guide you when assessing new opportunities; trust your instincts and be wary of anything that sounds too good to be true.

Brit + Co

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

You are entering an exceptionally creative phase. Push beyond your current perceptions of what creativity means to you. Experiment with new methods and techniques while ensuring that the process remains enjoyable. Inspiration can strike from unexpected places, so stay open. However, avoid speculative risks for now. Instead, channel this ethereal energy into artistic and imaginative pursuits.

Brit + Co

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

The comfort of home may be especially appealing, but ask yourself whether you’re using it as an escape. If so, redirect that energy into creative activities that soothe your soul, such as gardening, tending to your houseplants or growing kitchen herbs. Establish meaningful rituals to connect with your inner self. If emotions feel overwhelming, seek guidance from a counselor or trusted advisor to gain perspective.

Brit + Co

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

Communication requires extra care. Before expressing heartfelt emotions or presenting ideas, take time to clarify your thoughts. Negotiations are especially delicate—pay close attention to details, and seek legal counsel before signing agreements. This is also an excellent period for writing or refining creative projects. Diligence will pay off, allowing you to produce some of your most compelling work.

Brit + Co

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

Be mindful with finances and possessions. If something promises quick riches, be skeptical. You may feel slightly disoriented, so detach from rigid expectations. Approach material matters with a spiritual mindset—do your belongings bring joy and elevate your energy? Take time to assess what truly adds value to your life and let go of anything that no longer serves you.
