When is Red Cup Day 2026?

Starbucks has not announced the date yet. It only says Red Cup Day will return later this season, and that you will get a free collectible, reusable holiday cup when you buy any handcrafted holiday drink, at participating stores while supplies last.

In recent years Red Cup Day landed on the Thursday one week after the holiday launch (November 13 in 2025, November 14 in 2024). If Starbucks follows that pattern, the 2026 date would be Thursday, November 12. That is our estimate, not an announcement. We will update this page when Starbucks confirms it.

Starbucks holiday cups and merch 2026

The Bearista Glass Cold Cup sold out within a day in 2025 and showed up on resale sites for far more than its price, so expect another rush. Starbucks has not shared the 2026 date or price. The 2026 disposable holiday cup designs have not been revealed either.

What's not on the 2026 holiday menu (yet)

Starbucks' announcement does not mention the Eggnog Latte or Chestnut Praline Latte. In 2025, both came back later in the season, in early December, so they could still return. The Chestnut Praline flavor is on store shelves as a creamer this year.

Holiday menu vs. winter menu

They are two different menus. The holiday menu runs from November 5 through the holidays. The winter menu usually arrives in early January; in 2026 it launched January 6 with drinks like the Dubai Chocolate Mocha. If you are searching for the "Starbucks winter menu 2026," you may mean the holiday drinks above.

Starbucks Tiramisu Velvet Latte: what we know

The Tiramisu Velvet Latte is the headline new drink this holiday season. From Starbucks' announcement:

• Starts November 5, 2026, at US stores
• Hot or iced, made with espresso and milk
• Topped with velvet mascarpone cold foam, then a dusting of cocoa and coffee, inspired by the Italian dessert
• Tiramisu Velvet Cold Brew gets the same mascarpone cold foam and dusting on cold brew

Starbucks has not shared prices or calories yet. We'll add both on launch day, along with how it tastes.

Is tiramisu new at Starbucks?

Not quite. Starbucks sold a Tiramisu Latte in early 2015, and its Reserve stores added a tiramisu latte in January 2026. The Tiramisu Velvet drinks are the first tiramisu flavors on the regular holiday menu. Dunkin' also launched tiramisu coffee drinks in August 2026.

Holiday coffee at home and a Rewards giveaway

The holiday lineup is already in grocery stores, including a new Peppermint Mocha Flavored Coffee, holiday creamers and ready-to-drink Peppermint Mocha drinks. From November 2 to December 31, Starbucks Rewards members can scan the QR code under the cap of select holiday creamers and bottled drinks for a chance to win prizes, including Starbucks for a year.
