Starbucks’ holiday menu is here and it includes refreshers

It’s starting to look a lot like winter at Starbucks — and it’s not just the holiday-themed cups.

After ending the price increase on non-dairy milk and doing away with Oleato olive oil-infused drinks, the chain just launched its holiday menu, available starting November 7. A slew of drinks are returning from years past – like the Peppermint Mocha – but a brand-new cold foam is joining the mix, as well as new and returning holiday treats.

Starbucks is also adding Refreshers to its holiday offering for the first time: a trio of drinks with cranberry-orange flavors.
