Coffee lovers across the UK have something to celebrate as Starbucks reveals its 2025 festive menu, featuring 18 returning favourites and brand-new items.
For some customers, the chain’s festive drinks are available from today – but there’s a catch. Only Rewards members can try the brand-new Chocolatey Mousse Latte and other holiday favourites right now.
Everyone else will need to wait until November 6, when the full Starbucks Holiday Menu hits stores across the UK.
That’s when the famous Red Cups return, along with festive foods and something for matcha enthusiasts.
The early access gives loyal customers a week’s head start on the seasonal menu, which features both hot and iced versions of the new chocolate creation alongside returning classics.
The star of this year’s line-up combines espresso with a nutty-flavoured sauce, milk, and a fluffy chocolatey whipped cream topped with cocoa dust.
“We wanted to bring something new and distinctive to the Holiday menu, and the Chocolatey Mousse Latte does just that,” said Dan Saxby, beverage product developer at Starbucks EMEA.
“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.”
