Let’s face it: The holidays can be exhausting. All the shopping, wrapping, baking and visiting can leave you feeling a strange combination of festive and depleted. However, a cup of Starbucks coffee can give you the boost you need to recharge and keep going strong through the New Year.
If the thought of having to hit your local coffee shop every time you need a little caffeine sounds like just another chore, we have good news. Starbucks has released a large line of holiday coffees and creamers that you can buy in a grocery store near you. With these products, you can have Starbucks holiday coffee anytime (even on Christmas morning after you spent all night helping Santa get the gifts ready).
What Products Are Available in the Starbucks Holiday Line?
Starbucks is making spirits bright because its extensive lineup of holiday-inspired coffees and creamers are available in grocery stores around the country. As you browse your store’s shelves, you’ll see a delightful combination of old and new favorites.
Is your coffee cup calling for Starbucks? Take a look at this year’s seasonal offerings:
- Starbucks Holiday Blend takes Latin American and Indonesian coffee beans and adds holiday flavors to create this seasonal beverage. You can purchase it as ground coffee, K-Cup pods or Nespresso for Vertuo capsules.
- Starbucks Gingerbread is like an explosion of gingerbread in your cup with aromas of cinnamon and clove. You can buy it as ground coffee and K-Cup pods.
- Starbucks Peppermint Mocha combines notes of rich chocolate and mint to create a festive favorite. This flavor is available as ground coffee and K-Cup pods as well as a bottle of Iced Espresso and a bottle of Frappuccino.
- Starbucks Flavored Creamers include Caramel Macchiato, Peppermint Mocha, Cinnamon Dolce Latte, Sugar Cookie Latte and White Chocolate Mocha.
As if all these festive products weren’t enough, Starbucks also threw in one more option for coffee lovers. It’s the new Starbucks Vanilla & Chocolate Cold Brew Concentrate. This custom blend of coffee mingles with the classic Irish Cream flavors of vanilla and chocolate.
What Is the Deal and Why Does It Belong in Your Smart Cart?
You’ve probably heard people say that making coffee at home is more affordable. Let’s just say they aren’t wrong about that. Not only is enjoying a cup of homebrewed coffee more convenient, but it can also help you save big.
How much money are we talking about? Let’s say you wanted an eight-ounce (aka “Short”) Starbucks Peppermint Mocha.
- At my local Starbucks, this order comes out to $5.65.
- However, using one K-cup pod can give you almost the same drink (minus the whipped cream and chocolate curls) for as little as $0.60. That means using store-bought coffee can be about a tenth of the cost once you factor in the tip!
Where Can You Buy Starbucks Holiday Coffee
You can find them in tons of grocery stores like Albertsons and Kroger and at retailers like Target and Walmart. So, when you’re finishing your holiday shopping this week, treat yourself and grab a Starbucks product (or two).
