Starbucks Announces Irish Cream Cold Brew Holiday Drink Addition
Have you already jumped on the yummy Starbucks Holiday 2019 drink menu? It’s likely coffee fans across the country have already sampled some Peppermint Mocha, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Caramel Brulee Lattes, Chestnut Praline Lattes, Eggnog Lattes, or the annual Christmas Blend coffee. But now, the popular chain has announced a special new drink addition to add some holiday joy to your daily routine: the Starbucks Irish Cream Cold Brew.
This tasty treat is made with classic Starbucks Cold Brew and is flavored with Irish Cream syrup. As a festive flair, it is topped with vanilla sweet cream cold foam and cocoa powder.
“The flavors of vanilla and cocoa in our newest Holiday beverage perfectly complement the smooth, Starbucks Cold Brew, to create a deliciously festive sip,” Starbucks said in a press statement.
“It pairs so well with cold brew because of the chocolate flavor in the Irish cream and the cocoa notes from the coffee,” said Erin Marinan, product developer for Starbucks R&D. “I think about that customer who’s in the middle of work or shopping, and this will help get them into the holiday spirit for the rest of the day.”
Of course, every Starbucks holiday beverage comes in a festive themed cup. For 2019, there are be four different designs, called Merry Dance, Merry Stripes, Polka Dots, and Candy Cane Stripes. When you bring any of these reusable cups back to Starbucks stores through January 7, you’ll also get 50 cents off your next grande holiday beverage. That just means you get to try more delicious options!
The Starbucks Irish Cream Cold Brew will be available across the United States and Canada for a limited time, now through the 2019 holiday season.
