Starbucks has unveiled its Christmas menu for 2025 and is giving some customers exclusive early access.
There may still be Halloween and Bonfire Night to get out of the way, but the popular coffee chain is bringing the festive season to customers early, with select customers given exclusive access to the Christmas drinks from Thursday, October 30. The early access is available to customers who are Starbucks Reward members, who simply need to scan their Rewards app in store. Customers who aren’t signed up to the scheme will have to wait another week before the festive menu drops in stores across the UK and via Starbucks Deliveries on Thursday, November 6.
For its 2025 festive offering, Starbucks is launching a brand new seasonal creation in the form of a velvety smooth Chocolatey Mousse Latte. The beverage consists of a blend of espresso and nutty flavour sauce, combined with steamed milk and finished with a chocolatey whipped topping and a light dusting of cocoa powder. The drink is also available iced for those who prefer a chilled option.
Dan Saxby, beverage product developer, Starbucks EMEA, said: “We wanted to bring something new and distinctive to the Holiday menu, and the Chocolatey Mousse Latte does just that.
“The rich cocoa and nutty notes capture the warmth and comfort of the season, while complementing the festive flavours of our seasonal icons. What truly sets it apart is the cloud-like, chocolatey mousse topping, bringing a unique texture that creates a light and velvety texture in every sip.”
The new creation will be joined on the menu by a selection of returning favourites, including the Toffee Nut Latte, Gingerbread Latte and Eggnog Latte, all served either hot or iced.
For those who enjoy matcha, Starbucks is also introducing an Iced Toffee Nut Cream Matcha Latte and an Iced Gingerbread Cream Matcha Latte, both of which can be served hot as well.
There’s also a selection of festive food for customers to tuck into, including the new Festive Turkey Sandwich comprising sliced turkey breast with herby sage and onion stuffing, tangy cranberry sauce, hickory-smoked bacon and rich turkey gravy on soft cranberry bread.
The Festive Feast Toastie is also new for this year and features golden cheese topped sourdough filled with sliced chicken breast, a herby sage and onion stuffing, rich gravy, sweet maple-cured bacon, cranberry sauce and Cheddar cheese.
Starbucks’ signature Pigs Under Blanket Roll will also be returning, along with the Spinach and Pea Falafel Wrap.
From the bakery, customers have a choice of five new sweet treats including a Mince Pie, Chocolate Babka, a Festive Triple Chocolate Brownie, a Caramelised Pecan and White Chocolate Cookie, and a Black Forest Slice.
Starbucks Reward members can access the new Christmas drinks from October 30. You can find your nearest store using the Starbucks Store Locator and then simply scan the Rewards app to get early access in participating stores. For stores where it is available, you can use the Starbucks UK app to order ahead and collect in store.
If you’re not a Rewards member then you’ll have to wait until November 6 to get your hands on it. From this date the full Christmas menu will be available to all customers in UK stores and on Starbucks Delivers.
