The Starbucks Christmas (holiday) menu typically starts circulating in early November, with a formal nationwide rollout on a chosen start date each year. For 2025, multiple outlets reported that the holiday menu—including returners like Peppermint Mocha and Caramel Brulée Latte, plus new festive drinks and treats—began to be available to Starbucks Rewards members around October 30, 2025, and then to all customers on November 6, 2025. Availability can vary by region and store, so it’s best to check your local shop or the Starbucks app for exact dates and early-access details.
Key timeline ideas you might expect
- Early access for Starbucks Rewards members: often begins a few days before the general public release.
- General in-store rollout: nationwide start date typically around the first full week of November. For 2025, November 6 was cited as the broad launch date.
- Seasonal items: the lineup usually includes returning favorites (Peppermint Mocha, Caramel Brulee Latte, Gingerbread Latte, Eggnog Latte, Toffee Nut Latte) and a small set of new additions or twists each year.
What to do if you want the exact start in your area
- Open the Starbucks app and check the “Offers” or “Menu” sections for holiday favorites and any early-access alerts.
- Look for a store-specific notice or the in-store menu display, since some locations may begin serving certain items earlier or later than others.
- If you’re checking after late October, many outlets will have the full menu available by November 6, 2025, with some items rolling out in the weeks that follow.
